She's Got Lungs.......and She Knows How to Use Them!!!!



Bess has recently figured out how to use her voice. Cute but yet, loud! When she gets frustrated with something she sticks her arms straight out, hands clenched and yells at the top of her lungs. It's not easy to keep her quite at church either. Glen and I take turns putting her binky back in her mouth.
We didn't have the best night of sleep at our house last night. I don't know if Bess is getting more teeth or what but it was bad. But never the less she still seems to rise and shine at 6 this morning. I ignored her until Glen got her. But I missed the gym. So I laid her down for her morning nap at 9 and came down to do the treadmill at exactly 9:15. Carter was down here playing games on the computer and I had the monitor right there so I could listen periodically. Well normally she takes about a 2 hour nap so I didn't think much of her waking. About 15 minutes into it I listened to the monitor and sure enough I could hear her. I went up and got her and brought her down here to play with toys because I was bound and determined to get it done. I was able to get a 3 mile jog in so I can't be too mad at her.
I want a new camera so bad. My digital that I have takes forever to take the picture. By the time it finally takes the picture the kids aren't even smiling. Glen told me I was no longer allowed to take their pictures at Christmas time because I was being too mean. I am so mad Bess will grow up looking at the pictures thinking she never smiled. Which is very untrue!
I asked a friend of mine that takes pictures for a hobby about the best kind of camera for what I want to do and she told me. None the less it's close to $1100. One day! My sister and I have even thought of getting a nice camera and taking some photography classes and maybe taking pictures of kids and babies for some side money. I am also tired of taking my kids to the same ol places like Target, Kiddie Kandids, Sears type places. I am ready to get some good candid black and white shots. They are so much cuter.
It would be nice to have a good camera before we go to Disneyland. I refuse to take pictures there with the digital. By the time I take the picture Mickey and the gang will have moved on to another child and we won't have any of our kids with them but other children we have no idea who they are.
I am currently over hearing a conversation Carter is having with Bess. Quite hilarious. They are in the cute TP/tent that Grandberger made for them and Carter is talking Spanish to her. I don't quite know if the Spanish words he is using are real Spanish words or made up but sounds good to me. Glen must be teaching him some Spanish on the side?

Hope everyone has a good day. It's yucky and rainy here.
P.S. Carter was mad yesterday that I didn't include a picture of him on "his horse Sage" so here it is!
