$15 monograms!!

I picked these up today, and paid $15.00 for a standard 3 letter monogram! That is just crazy to me! They do a great job, but I paid $8.00 in Charlotte. What do you pay for monogramming?

Wow, it has been a long time!

I'm back!! I can not believe it has been so long since my last post! It has been a crazy summer here in the Canamare house. Will is doing wonderful! Sleeps great, eats great, and does not scream his head off any more! Thank God!

Will and Papa Larry

Fell asleep before I could put him in his PJ's
Mallory started ballet class, and absolutely loves it! Here are a few pics from her first night of dance class!

A cupcake after class. Now she really loves it!

I will update you on Ashlyn, Allie Grace and Madi tomorrow~promise. Great to be back!

Madi's 1st haircut

Your first haircut is one penny!

Yes, my daughter is 5 and just got her first haircut!

Congratulations to my cousin Laura

I am so proud of you Laura!

Princeton Theological Seminary Grad Student

Yes, Princeton!!!!!!!!

The President of Princeton said that Jira, Laura's dog, slept through every class, but was still getting her diploma! A real diploma too!
Way to go Jira! I love you Laura and I am so proud to have you in my life. You are a beautiful soul, and God has blessed you in so many ways! Your smile lights up a room, and it makes me happy just to be around you.

Aunt Dee

My sister is home from Dallas (National Guard), and has finally met her nephew! Andrea has been there beside me on every delivery, so not having her there to welcome Will was very hard. I still can not believe all the stuff she went through in Basic Training! I would not have lasted a day! Hell, 2 hrs!!! When they told me I had to sleep out in the woods, check please!!! I'm done! We are so proud of her, and so glad she is home! I love you Andrea, and it is so nice to be able to pick up the phone and call you whenever I want to!

While most of the kids at the baseball game were running through red mud, what were my girls doing..........

Poor Will, he doesn't stand a chance!

Canon or Nikon??

Thank you for all of the helpful comments about Will. I do have the carrier, and it works great. We are doing much better, but he still wants to be held constantly. He has a little temper already :)

I need your help again! What type of camera do you have, and why did you choose it? I can't decide which one to get, and my anniversary is coming up on the 29th! I need to make a decision.

Help!!!

Mallory has nothing to do with this question, but I can not do a post without a picture. And, my girls can not do a picture without the peace sign! Having an older sister will do that to a little one!

Serious question here ladies!!! Will screams until I pick him up. The second I pick him up he stops! THAT IS NOT COLIC!! Do you let him cry it out, and if so, how long do you let him cry before giving in and picking him up? I know he is not wet, he just ate, he just wants to be held. If this was my only child, I would hold him all day long, but I have 4 other children to take care of. What do I do???????? Will it hurt him to let him cry for a certain period of time? I know this is my 5th child, but none of my girls did this! I am lost!

Silly Bands

Are you finding these all over your house too?

Silly bands

Last night I had my first glass/half a bottle of wine, in 9 months, and cut my own hair! I wanted bangs. Taking a picture while holding my infant, must be able to multi-task when you have 5 kids!!
I am wearing a sundress, it is just strapless!!!

Bath time

I found something he loves, his bath! He was so calm, and slept for 5 hrs! This is the first time I used the tub, and it will now be a daily thing! Colic my rear-end, he stops crying the second I pick him up! My husband says he has hold-itis!

Allie Grace and Mallory helped wash his hair!

All clean and ready for bed! He looks so tiny in his crib! Oh yes, and he already rolls over!!

One month

WHC II

I could not help but laugh when I saw these pictures. He was not happy about the outfit and hat, but it is so darn cute! Thanks Mimi for the cool pants!

Easter 2010

The Canamares

Baby Will in my brothers outfit! It is 25 years old.

Mallory can't figure out why he is crying, again!

Thank you so much for all of your wonderful advice! Things are a little better with the Zantac, but now he only stops crying when I hold him! I am in some trouble!

One word

COLIC

I am so exhausted! Will has reflux and colic. The Dr just put him on Zantac , so we will see. When he is not sleeping or eating, he is crying! I will take all the advice you have on soothing babies with colic. HELP

I will download Easter pictures in the morning, but right now I am going to sleep!

WHC II

I will post more when I start to feel better. Very sore, but everything went beautiful!
Right before they took us back.
