Silly Mommy. CJ’s favorite phrase. Well this weekend was Memorial day and I wanted to go camping. Eric had a major test on Tuesday that he was studying for all weekend with study groups. I told him that the girls and I were still going camping...he offered to keep the dog. While he was at the study group I attempted to put up the tent. Now I am experienced at this, and even though it was a new tent, tents are tents-how hard could it be? But with our new one, unless you have an arm span of at least 15 ft, you can not put it up by yourself. I realized this after I had begun to get the poles in it only to discover my first choice of camp sites had fire ants everywhere. Silly Mommy, she didn’t scout the site very well and had to drag the whole thing to a new area. Check out our tent --It’s HUGE!! Eric can stand in it!

I convinced Eric to come home and help me put up the tent, at which he was surprise that we were camping Friday and then surprised that it was in our own backyard. I’m no fool. A 2yr old and an infant...right. Also, FL is so dry right now we couldn’t have a cool campfire or have a way to cook, unless I used our kitchen. Out of practice, camping is work! So there you have it, the girls and I camped in the backyard where it was cool, since our AC didn’t get fixed until Tuesday, while Eric slept in the hot house with a fan blowing directly on him. Oh and CJ slept until 7 both mornings!
Laurelei has discovered her feet and is always playing with them. She is also reaching for toys, talking, and on the look out for CJ to come and play. Oh, and she loves to read!

Remember the butt cream day? Here is that fun photo.
