teeths.

people we have teeth!  two teeth are coming through on the bottom.  no pics yet because cole won't let me snap a photo while holding down his bottom lip (i tried for about 10 minutes!).  i told a lady at work about cole's new pearly whites and she said "he's just now gettin' teeths?" nice.

happenings at the campbell house.

Here are a bunch of random things in the life of the campbells:


campbells go green:
we are officially recycling more than we are producing trash.  we are putting out about 1 or 2 bags of garbage each week and are putting out 2 recycling BINS.  how cool is that?


cole's first art project:
cole completed his first masterpiece while at school.  they said that he loved getting paint of his feet (which is a sure sign that he will love getting dirty) and that he was very ticklish (which we know very well!)

new coffee table:
we got a new coffee table!  yeah!  i liked our old one but it had really sharp corners which cole had already fallen into a few times and was definitely not child friendly.  in comparison, our new one is pretty, functional and great for kids.  We also switched out our rug for one that we have had for several years....in the packaging....in the living room.  So, not only is the room lookin spiffy, it is also less crowded. These pics are not great of the rug but trust me, it looks good.  

flowers:
brenner surprised me this week by sending me a beautiful bouquet of flowers.  this was the best picture that i could get.  i could not find a blank backdrop.

aren't they beautiful?  i feel so special.

Stroller:  

we got a new stroller too which we needed since cole had one that was just the bare frame which his carseat fit into.  well, since he is about to grow out of his carseat, we also needed a new stroller.  isn't it pretty?

and is it already being put to good use!

obsessed.

Cole is totally obsessed with the camera.  he loves it when i allow him to play with it (which is RARE).  

he waves it around

and squeals and makes funny faces while swinging it around (note the fluffy tuft of hair sticking out to the side....)

he questions my motives as i move towards repossessing the camera

the camera is gone.....and this is what happens. 

funny face.

so over the weekend when we were in oklahoma, cole began making this really funny face whenever we started to take a picture.  i didn't think that kids know how to ruin your photos this early in life?  some examples?

goof-ball.
