Birthday Boys

We had two birthdays in July to celebrate this year.  Spencer's 30th and Noah's 4th.

We were able to get together with the family California and throw Spencer a party for his big 3-0.  It was a lot of fun.

We took the kids to the Oakland temple so they could see where we got married.  We went to the visitor's center as well.

 After visiting the temple, we had a fat fest at Fenton's after the temple.  I had a crab salad sandwich and we all had massive ice cream sundaes.  It was totally delicious and we enjoyed every bite!

We took Noah to the Carson City Railroad Museum for his birthday.

 Ezra loved the train ride.

 Here is the train cake I made for Noah's birthday.  It was make of cupcakes.  You can't tell it is supposed to be a train in this picture and it looks like an 8 year old made it, but it was fun and the kids liked it.

Summer Fun 2011

We have been able to do a lot of fun things this summer and time flew by so quickly.

I was able to take the kids to Hot August Nights with my parents this year. We saw a lot of neat stuff, but this was the best. Noah thought it was the real Bat Mobile and thought Batman was coming to Reno to visit him. He was really sad that he couldn't meet Batman, so he drew him a picture of the Joker and wrote a letter telling him he needs to come back to Reno next year.

We told Leila that if she would poop on the potty and help clean up dog poop in the backyard that we would get her a slide. She still isn't potty trained, but she does help with the dog poop. She loves to help find the poop and helps me put it in the bag. It is sort of like a sick Easter egg hunt. The kids love the slide, especially when we put the baby pool under it. It is amazing at how fast they can go down that little slide when it is wet!

We went to repticon a few weeks ago. They had tons of cool things there: snakes, lizards, spiders, newts, frogs, and turtles. Leila was able to pet a huge lizard and we were able to take a picture with this huge snake named Princess. It was a blast!

Noah's 3rd Birthday

Noah turned 3 on July 31st. To celebrate, we took him to the train museum in Portola. Noah and Leila had a blast seeing all of the trains and going on a train ride. He loved it so much that we may just take him for his birthday again next year.

Back to Bloggin

Okay, I haven't been updating our blog at all. I've decided to do a better job and will try to update this blog at least once a week. Both of my kids woke up early from their naps today, so I don't have any time for a new post today, but I will be updating everything some time this week. I'm sorry to anyone who actually looks at this because it has been seven months since I last updated it.
I have also started a new blog, cornycampbell.blogspot.com, that is more like my own journal and might be kind of boring but you can check it out if you wish.

Our Kids

I can't believe how big our kids are getting! Leila is already four months old and Noah will be turning two on the 31st. Leila's hair is getting really long. I tried to put it into pigtails before church today and it turned out so cute. Noah is a good big brother and loves trying to take care of his little sister. I feel very blessed to be the mother of two wonderful kids!

Sweet Updates

Life has been very crazy since the last time we posted. The kids have been keeping us busy and I have dedicated all of my extra time to finishing shool. I've been feeling pretty guilty for not keeping track of our lives, so I am going to try to update this blog once a week.

Noah loves being a big brother. He really enjoys hanging out with Leila.
This is Leila in her Easter dress.


Noah loves to look like dad. Here he is wearing Spencer's glasses.

Long Time no Blog

It has been such a long time since we wrote in a blog that I thought I would update with a bunch of pictures....

This is the first semi family photo. Jen is missing cause she was conducting the photo shoot.

Our little princess. I am pretty sure that this is the picture that we sent out in the birth announcements.

Just Noah an me goofing around having him pretend to be flying.

Noah just being happy.

One of the first pictures of baby Leila. She was born March 6, 2009. 3.6.09 is a pretty cool birthday if you ask me. She was six lbs. seven oz. and twenty in.
