All Good Things Must Come To An End

Summer that is! Tomorrow I return to work for another year at B'Wood. Can you hear the excitement? Cason will start day care - luckily he will have his big brother there to help watch after him and ease Mommy's mind. Cade is quite the caregiver with Cason - he loves to feed him, hold his hand and talk to him and Cason just smiles and laughs at him. I can already tell they will be best of friends.

Cade has recently become addicted to the Wii. Chad bought him the Cars 2 game for a surprise and it was all over from there. (Cars 2 is another addiction we have.) As soon as he wakes up in the morning he asks to play -- and I am worried that he will be a gamer. Hopefully it is just a phase. Cason has started rolling over (from back to tummy) and laughing quite often. Other than that things have been quite quiet around here. But with me returning to work, the chaos will begin ---

WHAT A WEEK!

This week was Cade's first experience at Vacation Bible School. He went to Sweeny 1st Baptist which is the church I grew up in. He was in the three year old class while mommy helped out in the nursery with the babies. I was very worried about how he would do in a "school" type setting since he has always gone to an in home daycare but he did wonderful. His teachers said that he always wanted to be the "leader" for everything. He came home the first day telling me - "God made me - Thank you God!" and that just melted my heart. Throughout the week he would sing songs he learned and continue saying their theme for that day with "Thank You God!" after everything.

Ironically, the last day of VBS their theme was "God Gives Great Gifts!" And for our family we could all say "Thank You God!" to that statement. On Wednesday, June 29th, Corey and Lynsie welcomed Baby Camryn Grace into this world at 1:08 PM. And praise God she was a healthy 7 pounds 2 ounces - 20 1/4 inches long. They have been through so much to make sure she was healthy it was such a blessing that 4 weeks early she was and had absolutely no NICU stay at all!! It was a long, long three months for Corey and Lynsie but she is here now and they are happy. Here are a few pictures of beautiful Camryn. Hopefully her mommy and daddy will get to bring her home on Sunday.

Corey, Lynsie and Camryn!!
