1 month old!

Well, Ella is now 1 month old and she is doing really well! She continues to eat and sleep well and usually only wakes up once in the night to eat. Yesterday she broke a record and was awake for 3 solid hours! She fell asleep just as we got to the park so she missed the whole thing again! Oh well... the life of a baby!

Anson is doing great also and getting used to being a big brother. He is really sweet to Ella and still loves to "see" her and kiss and hug her. We are enjoying the cooler fall weather by taking outings to the parks and playgrounds and going on daily walks. (This job of being a Mom has the be the best!) Anson goes to a neighborhood playgroup on Thursday afternoons and loves it! We also go to a Bible Study on Tuesday mornings at our church where he goes to his own class. He always has such a great time. He is really learning how to communicate. Last week he counted to 10! And now we are working on the days of the week. He seems to learn things on his own. I hope he keeps it up when he starts school!

Dusty is keeping very busy with the commercial painting business. He has 3 crews of painters working all over the South on places like Pottery Barn, Ann Taylor, Chic-Fil-A, Men's Wearhouse, etc. Most of these are new construction. They start a big Office Depot next week. He doesn't have to travel too much which is nice. He is such a great help with the kids. Anson loves to ride in Daddy's truck and go on special errands with him. Most of the time they behave themselves!

Well, we're looking forward to our first trip to Florida with Ella! We are going next weekend for Auntie Brittany's baby shower and Gramma's birthday! Gramma and Papa Camp will get to meet Ella for the first time on Gramma's birthday! Stay tuned for pictures of our trip!
