Campbell is ONE!

Dear Campbell,
Words cannot describe the amount of joy that you bring to our family. It was love at first sight the moment we laid eyes on you. You really are such a ray of sunshine. You brighten every room with your precious contagious smile. It's seriously so cute...your cute little bottom 2 teeth that have barely popped through! Gosh, you are so super sweet too. You love to bury your head into mommy and daddy's stomachs when we are laying on the floor. You love to tackle us too. When we are standing near by you are almost instantly at our feet tugging on our legs to pick you up. I think it's because you are scared of Jackson honestly. He's still really rough and doesn't understand gentle. You are almost there girlfriend...almost to the point that you are about to give it right back to him! I absolutely adore you Cam. You just can't describe the amount of joy a baby girl can bring to your life...really any baby. They are such miracles and so unbelievable if you truly think about it.

I can't resist buying you the cutest clothes every time I go into a store. You already have 2 pairs of TOMS that I'm itching to put on you but am resisting until you can walk. You are so almost there. You actually took 2 steps the day after your birthday and today you came close. I bet you are off and going in a couple of weeks. You are such a chunky monkey and literally chow down on anything I put in front of you. I honestly think you could eat all day. You never want to stop. I'm loving it though. There is something so extra cute about a chunky baby! You drink 3 sippy cups everyday of Whole Milk and oh boy do you love it! You are so routine just like your brother was. You still take that morning nap but we are hoping you drop it soon.

You can do no wrong little girl!!! Honestly, if I tell you "no" your bottom lip puckers up. Breaks my heart! You love to be held and I'm totally fine with that. I could hold you all day long. Oh gosh, almost forgot to mention your obsession with your Wubba Nubs (pacifiers). You have 5 of them... 3 stay in your bed, 1 stays downstairs and 1 always comes with us wherever we go. Girl, you are addicted. Ya see, with Jackson we took them away on his first birthday and had no problems. Friend, we will let you keep it for however long your little heart desires! (not really). I think it soothes you because you only have 2 little itty bitty teeth. I'm ok with it....must be that second child syndrome!

Well my Campbell Louise I cant describe the love that we have for you! You complete my life and I'm so over the top proud to call you mine. You are SO gorgeous and daddy and I could stare at you all day long. We love you baby doll!!! Keep smilin'!

Love,
Mom and Dad

Jackson 3 year old stats

We went to the Dr today...we got the chicken pox vaccine. Along with that came NO tears...not even one! He earned an entire package of skittles too! Here's his stats:

Weight: 36.25 pounds (87%)
Height: 38.25 inches (61%)

After the Dr checked him out he looked up at me and said "I'm ready to leave now mom". Precious little boy!

Happy 3rd birthday Jackson!

Dear Jackson,
Where has time gone? Can you please stop growing up so fast? Today, you turned 3 years old. That means that 3 years ago I got to meet your precious little face and I haven't stopping loving on you since. You are literally the love of my life (along with Campbell!, oh...and daddy too). There is just something so special about you that I just cant explain to anyone. I know all parents say that their children are smart but my golly, you are a smart cookie! You don't let me forget anything, you can give my directions to anywhere that we have been before and you have a crazy memory. Like, nothing gets past you!

I'm SO proud of you and I love showing you off. At school, you are known as the "best dressed" kid. I hear it every time that I pick you up from all the teachers, not just your teachers. This makes me so happy! You are just so cute in your polo's  and TOMS that I just cant get enough of them! You don't even know what tacky is...you tell me what TOMS go with what outfit and you always pick your Sperry's for the outfits that they go with. I think you will always be a great dresser. You have even learned to ask me "do I look handsome?" That's because mommy always tells you that you are handsome!

Allot of big milestones happened this year: You sleep in your queen bed with no rails, left handed for sure, potty trained (not at night), you can swim and haven't used a floatie in 6 months, you can ride your bike (with training wheels), you can officially do "hook em" with your fingers AND you became a Big Brother to your sister Campbell. I wish I could brag on your brothering skills, but I can't. You really do love your sister but there is still some major jealousy, attention deprived something going on! You just love stealing all the attention from her and you love to hit and poke her. She will get your back pretty soon I can assure you.

You ADORE daddy and always pick him over me. I know you just do it to get a rise out of me. That's how smart you are! You are extremely stubborn that it drives mom and dad to craziness. Sometimes we just don't know what to do with you. Time out means absolutely nothing to you. You will literally come out of timeout and do the exact same thing that put you in timeout. You little stinker. It really does makes me crazy. You are the official "staller" at bedtime. Its literally a 30 minute fiasco every night. Its always something....more water, more books, snuggle time, tuck my "guys" in", prayers etc.... I could go on!

All in all you are the most wonderful thing that could have ever happened to your daddy and I. We would do anything to make you smile and to hear your contagious laugh. I can't express my love to you little man! Just thinking about you makes my heart full. I can't imagine  our life without your crazy self. You are so extremely blessed that you just don't even know it! Thank you for the most amazing 3 years. Daddy and I are over the moon about you and your sister. We love you J!

Love, Mom and Dad

Memorial Day

My parents lake house has been under major renovation. Hello new kids bunk room and 2 new bathrooms! Our family has finally reached its limits and it was time for more room at the lake house now that we are up to 6 grand kids. According to everyone, the Biegel family is complete. No better way to celebrate than to get those kids out of the closets where they sleep and let them sleep together in their own room. More pictures to follow but it looks fabulous! We spent Memorial Day at the almost completed house and it sure made a difference. The cousins always have so much fun together and they were all so giddy being able to sleep in the same room. We were blessed with lots of rain the whole weekend so I didn't get many pictures, but I did snag these cute ones! And yes, Jackson is surrounded by 5 girls!






Jackson's last day of preschool!

He had such a fun time in Ms. Amanda and Ms. Claudia's class. He learned and excelled in so many ways this year and I'm so thankful for that. He is HUGE compared to the first day!
