Another tall and skinny one...

"I get to go to the doctor today! They just LOVE me here...Cute nurses tell me how handsome I am, and how big I'm growing (I'm 76th percentile in height, but only 15th in weight...just like Sis). I wonder what exciting festivities they have planned for me today!"
30 minutes later... "It was HORRIBLE, just HORRIBLE!!!!" Those monsters gave me 4 shots! How could my parents let them do this to me?!? At least I have my comforting companions: blankie, binkie, and lollipop...but I'm clearly not happy..."

Our LUV keeps on a'growing...

I feel bad that I didn't post anything to celebrate our anniversary back in February. Here is a wonderfully sappy tribute to our 'long' and happy marriage:

...our love has grown like this tree....

...or like our general attractiveness has grown ...

...or like our waistlines have grown...

Yep, always growing. These 6 long years of marriage have been an inspiration to all! Look, they're even starting to write books about us! Sure am glad we picked each other, Cam! Happy Anniversary!

they love eachother...

Meet my twins...

I recently snapped this picture of Cole sleeping. Sometimes, he looks so much like his sisters, I can hardly tell them apart!

Living Room Transformation: Project #1 Wood Floor

Karren has already made big changes to the house. One thing she has always wanted though is to make the living room/dining room her own. She had already started, but last week, the full transformation began. Here is what the living room looked like before we began:

The first project in the transformation was changing our floor from carpet (which was constantly getting dirty) to maple wood.

Step 1: Buy materials and move out furniture. Matt Lyman helped me get quality maple through Action Floor Systems LLC and introduced me to Kevin where I got the spline, roofing paper, and vents.


Step 2: Removal of old floor. Matt, John (my neighbor), Trevon Jacobson, and Skye Wolfer came over and helped me remove the old floor. It was actually pretty fun.




Step 3: Laying out roofing paper. Ned and I covered the entire floor with roofing paper.


Step 4: Install the wood. I am very grateful to many guys who came over and helped, including Matt, Skye, Ned, Aaron Hubbard, Spencer Dixon, and Bishop Mair. Matt taught us the ropes and then everyone went to work. This took a couple of days, but we completed rather quickly.





And ..... here is Matt putting in the final nail:

Sonya: "I very love my baby..."

...and I've decided that I want to be a baby again too!

If Cole gets swaddled, I want to be swaddled...


If he gets to sleep in a bassinet, I want to sleep in a bassinet...


If he gets enormous plastic toys, so do I!



(thank goodness she hasn't been asking for diapers! This is just a phase, right?)

Baby Cole/ Baby Cam

...and the Wilde Man Legacy lives on...






(In case you are unaware; it has been my observation that a Wilde man will make at least one exact copy of himself per generation. Until now, I thought Sonya was a close enough match to satisfy...Cam really out-did himself with Coleridge!)
