Random Moments

Momma Bear and Pappy got Cameron a hat of Troys hair for Christmas this year.  He's grown out of his old Troy jersey so Gommy got him a new one.  We had a Steelers Sunday to get ready for the Baltimore game and he just had to have his photo taken with my Troy Bobble head.  We thought Troy was at our house to visit for a bit.

Jose got to stay home with Karley one day this week, while I had to work.  He noticed that she got quiet and that usually means she's into something she shouldn't be.  When he called her name she started to jabbering, but he still didn't see her.  Then he looked down.  She loves her Lady Bug Pillow pet from Uncle Dan and Auntie Sue!!  Too cute!

14 months

It is so hard to believe that our little lady bug is 14 months old already.  This past month has been interesting to say the least.  Karley loves to move things around.  Any time that she gets let loose upstairs she can be found in her room pulling her socks from one drawer to the other.  She is still very vocal.  While we have no clue still what she is saying, she is working on getting her sounds down.  Dada is her favorite. 

13 months

Karley has become such the chatterbox this last month.  She may not be making much sense to us, but she is definitely telling a story in her mind.  She really does crack us up, especially since she is a hands talker.  Karley is soaking in everything these days.  It's fun to see how she watches everything to figure things out.  It's both good and bad, as we are trying to keep her out of the cabinets.  Her favorite thing to do these days are to pull everything out of the cabinet in the entertainment stand to see if she can get in there.  I finally got smart and just removed everything in there.  It is now known as "Karley's Space".  I finally caught her climbing in there and shutting the door behind her.  I'll see if I can post that video from my phone somehow.

Getting Our Christmas Tree

This is our first Christmas in our new house this year.  I am so excited to have the fresh smell of pine.  Despite being stuck so many times growing up, I just can't go to a fake tree.  Aunt Holly came over early in the morning to take me and the boys to Hickory Ridge Tree Farms to get our tree.  It's just a few miles from our house and a nice place.  We got our saw, or as Cameron liked to call it, our "weapon" and headed off.  Learning from a past experience with Charlie, we started at the front of the farm first.  We found our tree right at the front (yea for not having to drag it too far)!  It fit right into Holly's truck and down the road we went.  Until next year...

12 months!!!

Our little lady bug is growing so fast!!  It is so hard for me to believe that on this date at 10:18pm I hearing the doctor and nurses tell Jose to look again because it wasn't a boy!!!  We have enjoyed having a little princess in the family for the past year and are so excited about the years to come.
Karley is officially into everything now that she has mastered walking.  A gate has now been placed across the bottom of the stairs now.  If someone forgets to put it back, it takes Karley about 2 secs to figure out that the stairs are now her's to conquer.  She does good climbing them, but only when someone is behind her do we let her go up them herself.  She's also up to 7 1/2 teeth.  I say half because one hasn't made it's full appearance just yet.

Double the First Birthday Fun!

11 Months!!!

Oh what fun 11 months has brought us in the Byers household.  Karley is such a ball of energy, joy, and more energy.  She has started walking!!!  We are still working with her, but she will take about 2 steps and then to the ground she will go.  The most she has taken were 5 steps to her big brother, Bubba.  She will go anything for the boys in this family, but not so much mamma.  She is defenatly turning into a Daddy's little girl for sure.
