Quick Update

             I have been so busy, I have had little time to blog. I started school recently and between both work schedules, homework, and spending time with Oaklie and Andrew, I have had little time for myself let alone blogging. So not much has happened since the last time I was on. Oaklie is talking more and more. Her vocabulary has broaden tremendously. She can say so many words and she talks nonstop. She can now do somersaults. It is her new trick and she does them all the time at home. Oaklie is such a smart girl. She will take her dirty diapers out and through them away on her own. She knows how to throw something away in the garbage can if you ask her to. And she even knows to put her own dishes in the sink when she is done eating. The only issue with that, is she cant reach the sink so after standing on her tippy toes and reaching as high as she can, she throws her dishes in the garbage can instead. She means well and I know she is trying so it is hard to get mad at her when she throws her dishes away. We took Oak to the zoo a couple of weeks ago. She loved it! She had the best time seeing all the different animals. If it wasn't so hot, we would take her a lot more. On really hot days we try to go to the beach if neither of us is working. Oaklie loves the beach. She could spend the whole day playing on the sand if I would let her. On the fourth of July, I had to work most the day, but when I was off we had a BBQ with some friends and went to watch fireworks over the bay later that night. Oak loves fireworks so she enjoyed them. We ended the day with roasting marshmallows and having smore's over our new fire pit. I loved seeing all the family pictures of everyone at the cabin over the weekend. We really wanted to try and make it home sometime this summer because Oak would love going to Bear Lake but my mom got all of us girls concert tickets to the Katy Perry concert in September so I had to decide what I would rather do. You cant go to a KP concert just anytime you want so I put off coming home. It is a good thing they invented Face Time. Oak ALWAYS wants to Face Time Grandma and Grandpa Campbell. She has learned from watching me and Andrew on the Ipad so she will call them or Aunt Courtney all the time. It makes being so far away a little easier. I think I caught up on about everything. I hope everyone had a safe weekend and enjoy the rest of this HOT summer.
