Pumpkin Carving

Bring on the pumpkins!

Skills!

Having a big brother is great!  Camille gets to watch him and try to do everything he does.  Dunking at the age of 1?  Check!

Camille's 1st Birthday!

Wow, it feels like only a few months ago that Camille was still getting up a few times a night.  Wait, that's a true story...

But anyway, she turned 1 on October 25th!

Connor insisted on a photo of them together.

Her birthday fell on a Friday, so she got to celebrate with her brother and other friends at daycare. She had no interest in her cupcake (I'm sure her big brother offered to take it off her hands though).

Grandma & Grandpa Flynn and Beatrice came over on Saturday for more celebrating (typical 2nd baby doesn't get a big party like Connor had - that's the breaks).  

Thanks to Beatrice for the beautiful princess cake!  

Video of us singing to her - she was pretty confused:

Camille wasn't a fan of the frosting sticking to her hands, but she liked the cake (once we cleaned all the frosting off of her).

Thanks to everyone for the gifts, our playroom now has pink in it!  So long to Connor's 2nd hand toys, Camille has her own now!

Pumpkin Patch

Our pumpkin patch is more like a kid's carnival with pumpkins all around.  Once again, we had to bribe Connor to take pictures by saying he could then go on more rides.  Whatever works.  As you can see, Camille wasn't interested in bribes.

Later that day, we couldn't resist snapping a shot of Connor in the bathroom...like father, like son.

End of summer stuff

"Family photo" at the beach.

She may end-up a model with these poses.

They are pretty much twins.

8 teeth and counting.

Bored on a Sunday afternoon, so Connor decided to pull Camille behind his 4-wheeler 

(while playing basketball).

Connor's 4 wheeler only goes about 1 mph, so we figured it was safe.

Family Photos

Here are some of the family photos we had taken while in Minnesota. 

Such a beautiful location for a photo shoot!

Camille goes to daycare!

We said that we would put Camille in daycare when she was 9 months old.  That was extended to 10 months and she is now being introduced to it a few days a week.  We can't say enough good things about our loving nanny, Beatrice.  She has been amazing and will continue to be a very important part of our family.  It would be pretty hard to stay away from this sweet little angel...

Introducing Camille to daycare has been much easier than it was with Connor.  Camille is very chill and self-entertained.  She looked a little skeptical in the pictures that were taken of her the first few days, but I think she likes the change of pace and all of the new toys.  Plus, we have Connor there to keep an eye on her and make sure she is happy.

Here are a few pictures of our big girl taken at daycare:
