Another busy, yet fun weekend (and lots of jumping!)

So Camille loves to jump. She has recently gotten extra improvement in her jumping skills, maybe thanks to the bounce houses!! On Friday, Camille got a special treat at school. They brought in a bounce house for the kids to enjoy since it had been rainy all week. Well, after telling her teachers it was too loud, she went in anyway and jumped up a storm! The fun continued when we picked her up from school. Nick & I recently joined Rex Wellness and Friday is Family Swim Night. Camille spotted the pool immediately and was ready to go. She had a bit of trouble being patient enough to get her swimsuit on. The pool was heated- which grossed me out a little, but Camille loved every bit of it. She wanted to rotate from playing with the noodles to the kick boards to just swimming around with Mommy & Daddy. Once she saw a little boy jumping in from the side, she decided she wanted to do that too! Needless to say, she slept well that night.

Saturday started out to an early visit to church. Nick & I participated in the Great Day of Service where we did about 3 hours of service work in the community while Camille got to play in the nursery with her church friends. Later that evening, we went to a cookout at a friend's house. Camille was excited to go to the "party." She got to have her first taste of Frito's- while I only let her have a few, she demanded more and wanted to camp out at the table where they sat. She even convinced some of the other ladies to give her some chips off their plate. She was the only little girl there surrounded by lots of little boys. She enjoyed all the attention and made sure to sing and dance while the crowd was watching some big football games. She was so entertaining and funny and was a great eater that night, even aside from all the chips. :)

The fun continued into Sunday. We went to church and came home to nap. Later that afternoon Camille's best church friends came over to play: Mary & Victoria. The rain held off, so we got to play outside the whole time. The girls all love to eat, so in between playing they would grab some snacks off each others' plates. The hit of the afternoon was when Mary brought her jump house that she got for her 2nd birthday. While Mary didn't enjoy playing in it, Camille & Victoria had a ball. Camille jumped like crazy and loved falling down. The jump house even had a slide that Camille would roll herself down and then turn around and crawl right back in. It was so entertaining! She did a couple of unplanned forward rolls which she laughed at herself for. So we now know what can hold her attention for more than a few minutes :) Perhaps we should invest in our own bounce house since it guarantees a good night of sleep and a good mood!! Until then, Mary will be very popular with her new present!

We thought this picture was funny! Camille got so hot jumping that week took off her pants. She then was so wound up she decided she wanted to wear this Frisbee on her head. Not to mention, it looks like she is saying her pledge of allegiance! :)
