White Coat Ceremony!

This last Friday was Steve's White Coat Ceremony. This ceremony marks the time when the students move from doing all lab and classwork, to doing all that plus performing care on actual patients in the clinic. Congrats Babe!
Steve's Granfather was able to help "coat" him since he is a retired dentist. We were so tickled that he was able to do it. Thanks Bill!

We are so proud of him, he works so hard and is going to be an amazing dentist!

A Visit from Gram Gram and Papa!

Gram Gram bought Cammers some playdough and accessories and they had a ball playing with it every day of their visit.

Grandma and Camri had a ton of laughs. What a cute pair they were.

Camri was so fascinated by Papa's big shoes. She would put them on, then fall over a step or two later.

Camri at Maymont























During Steve spring break (yes, I am that far behind on posts), we took Camri to run wild at Maymont Park. She loved the flowers and the gardens and having some room to run.

Fall Break, Laid Back Style

Steve and I figured that since Camri is about to turn two, it would be an injustice not to get her some Playdough already. After careful instructions to play with just one color at a time, and to not mix the colors I let her play with free reign while I fixed dinner. You know that little voice in your head that says, " gee, it is awfully quiet in here. How nice. Something must be terribly wrong." ? Well I ignored that voice and when I looked over this is what I saw. I knew it would happen. What child doesn't mix the playdough colors? She loved it, and I got a kick out of watching her try to roll it out and use cookie cutters to make shapes. Our little girls is getting so big. Don't you love the cheesy smile?

Since Steve was on fall break we decided to take Cammers out to the Children's Museum of Richmond. She LOVED it. She loved it so much we ended up getting a year long membership. They had all kinds of fun activities for her to do. Here she is painting a pretty picture with daddy. Miraculously, she didn't even get any pain on her clothes!


Here she is "milking the cow". She was totally intrigued by the udders.



They had an ambulance to play in, which she thought was amazing since she could drive it and play with the stereo and make the lights go off an on. Everything we don't let her do in our car.




Here she is working in the Mechanic shop. She worked on changing the tire and fiddled with the engine a bit until she discoved a buttong in the engine made the horn honk. It scared her and she was done playing with the car stuff. Guess she'll never be a mechanic.









Of course, Camri's favorite- the water toys. She had so much fun playing in the water. She was soaked by the time we ripped her away, but she loved every minute of it.

Pics of Cammers

I realize this is not the best picture of me, but I thought it really captured Camri's personality. She is such a spunky little thing and when she isn't making me crazy, we have a lot of fun.
Camri has a new love-- Fruit Loops. She asks for cereal at every meal.

She also loves to get into my lipsticks. Here she is with pink lipstick all over. I don't know if you can see it really good, but it's there. She got into my makeup while I was getting ready for the gym today and she had it all over her mouth. She is such a girly girl.


Here is the new outfit Grammy Carolyn bought for Camri, too cute right?








I haven't been posting much lately... We really haven't been doing anything exciting. Hopefully next week we'll have something fun to post as it's Steve's Fall break. Yay!

Thankgiving Point with the Clawson Clan

Here she is digging up fossils at the Dinosaur Park in Thanksgiving Point
With Grammy Sonja trying out all kinds of cool stuff.




She loved feeding the goats. Every time they would bite her she would say "Ouch" and then keep feeding them.




Riding the sheep with her cute cousin Kyle



On the carriage ride with Steve and I





Feeding the chickens... her fingers apparently.














Thanksgiving point had this cute little "garden" the kids could play in.








Camri with Papa Gary









Oops, you got to see this one twice.










Family carriage ride











They were so excited to get on the pony ride, and as you can see, so sad to get off! We drug Camri and Kyle off kicking, screaming, and crying.












On the pony ride.



























Loving the cows and horses!





























I honestly couldn't believe how fearless she was around these huge animals!















Stinkin' cow with it's naty tongue.














The pony ride was her favorite for sure! She was so excited when they started moving. She would yell, " weee, i'm ridin a pony!!"
