We are so blessed to have such wonderful family! Cami just absolutely adores Lindsay and Copper! They came in town recently for a little visit and they all had a blast together. We are so thankful for Cami (and Noah) to get to grow up with cousins!

O Noah

O Noah! You are only 2 months old, but it seems like you have been here forever. I can barely remember what life was like before you. You bring us so much joy and your sweet smiles melt my heart!

At 2 months old you weigh 12 lbs 11 oz and are 24 in long! You are a very big boy! We call you our little nugget because you always have your legs pulled up to your chest so you look very short and compact, yet very chunky!

You love swinging in the swing and often

times will take a nap or two in here!

You get lots and lots of lovin' from your mommy and sissy each day! You love looking at your sister. She is always in your face but it doesn't seem to bother you!

We are still trying to figure out who

you look like, but you are looking like your

daddy more and more each day!

You are such a chunky, little rollie pollie! I love it!

This is one of my favorite pictures of you and

Cami! You two look so much alike in this picture!

We have started to swaddle you at night and you seem to sleep much better this way. So far, since the night time swaddling, you have slept through the night. Although, mommy and daddy are worried you will be like your sister and have to be swaddled until you're 6 months old...not fun!

You are such a sweet baby, o Noah!

Mommy, daddy, and Cami love you so much!

Birthday Girl!

My baby girl is 3 years old! It doesn't seem that long ago that I was holding her in my arms and rocking her to sleep each night. Now she barely even fits in my arms, much less will she stay still long enough for me to hold her, sniff sniff.

To celebrate her birthday we took Cami to a water park. She had a blast! And mommy and daddy did too! It was a WONDERFUL day!

This sweet little girl came into our lives 3 years ago and has forever changed our lives. She amazes me each day! From the witty comments to the continuous curiosity. From the leg hugs to the goodnight kisses. I love every minute of every day with her. She makes me stop and smell the roses and appreciate life more. Happy Birthday Cami! Mommy and daddy love you very much!

Tommy & Sarah

Cami absolutely loves her cousins Tommy and Sarah! They came in town recently and we spent the 4th of July together. Here are a few of my favorites from the day.

First Smile!!!

So, this wasn't really his first smile but it was the first one caught on camera. The pics are a little fuzzy because I have to do lots of baby talk, tickling, and other embarrassing if I was caught on camera things all while trying to hold the camera still.

Nothing warms your heart more than seeing that precious baby boy smile!

Noah's First Month

Check out how Noah has changed over his short, little one month lifetime...

Swim Lessons!

Cami just finished her very first set of swim lessons! She did great! She is now completely comfortable in the water and has no problems putting her face and head under water. Neal was an excellent coach as he had to take her to swim lessons every day for two weeks!

She might not have the "scoop hands/kicking feet" form down perfectly but she is well on her way to being a little fishy!!

Father's Day

I have to say I am truly blessed to have such an amazing husband who is the BEST father to our children! He is such a patient and loving father. Cami and Noah are two very lucky kids to have Neal as their daddy!

Daddy-Daughter date night!

Father's Day 2011

He's Here!

Noah Thomas Dube made his entrance into the world on May 28, 2011 at 6:47 pm. He was 6 lbs 15 oz and 21 1/2 in. It all started that morning at 7:00 am as my water started to break. Neal was at work, so I was stuck at home by myself trying to get ready, get Cami some breakfast and get her dressed, finish packing our bags for the hospital, start some laundry, call my parents to come watch Cami and the dogs, etc, etc, etc. We finally got everything ready to go and as we said our goodbyes to Cami before leaving for the hospital we told her we were going to have baby Noah and we would bring him home soon. She replied with "can we keep him?" The cutest and sweetest thing ever!

At the hospital I had a fabulous nurse
