I can't believe 2010 is already just about over...not sure I'm ready for 2011 already! We had a GREAT Thanksgiving & Christmas!! Camden made out like a bandit at Christmas, getting everything he asked for..well, pretty much everything he asked for.
I will try to do a little "Year in Review" for everyone and everything I have missed.
January- Not sure anything too exciting happened.
February- Nope, nothing either...I guess we aren't that exciting!
March- Jesse's little brother, Josh..welcomed his little boy (Deegan) into the world on March 1st 2010 weighing 10lbs 3oz. Also, my nephew Brody turned 5 on March 27th
April- I turned 27...yikes...I can't believe I am already almost 30 years old!! Yes, I may be old..but it just makes my mom that much older :)
May- We got a PUPPY!!! Yes, I just said that. A little Mini Daschund named Hurley. She is the cutest little pup ever.
June, July, August, September- We had a great Summer. Lots of fun playing with our puppy, and enjoying our new grass and our Treager!
October- Lets see...this month was great! My nephew Noah was born on October 3rd, about 6 weeks early!! We went to San Diego for a week with Jesse's parents, Scott & Denise. We had so much fun. Went to Sea World, The SD Zoo, LegoLand, we got to take a tour of the USS Midway (that was pretty awesome, its like they have their own little city on that ship), we did so much other stuff, I can't even remember it all. I can't WAIT to go back to California again!! Shortly after we returned, it was Camden's 5th Birthday. We had a small party at our house, since his big birthday gift was California.
November & December- Has been CRAZY & BUSY months for us. The Holidays have really taken a toll on us. Exhausted. Completely Exhausted.
Update on Deegan & Noah.
Deegan is 9 months old, almost 10 months. Can't believe he grew up sooo fast!! It is so amazing. His little personality is really showing now. He's so funny and loves his cousin Camden. We don't see him that often, but anytime he is down at Scott & Denise's we go and see him!
Noah is almost 3 months old. He got sent home a week or 2 before Thanksgiving, which everyone was very thankful for! Last I heard, he weighed almost 9 lbs. BIG OL CHUNKY BOY! Considering he was born at 3lbs, and has gained 6 lbs in 2 months (last i knew his weight was beg. of Dec). He is completely adorable and I can't wait to meet him, and see my other nephew Brody!!
Well, that's all for now!!
I'll be back in 2011

our lives changed forever, 5 years ago..
5 Years ago today, I was driving to the hospital, and calling Jesse in California telling him he needs to fly home because I was having our baby. Camden Scott Howell arrived October 26, 2005 @ 12:17am weighing in at 8lbs 12.8oz and 21.5" long. He came 2 weeks early. Jesse made it to the hospital with about 2 hours to spare. Lucky him!!!! Camden has grown up to be such an amazing little boy. I am so thankful we were blessed enough to have him in our lives. We had his 5th birthday at our house on Friday October 22nd. On his actual birthday, October 26, I am taking him to Chuck E Cheese so he can play and have fun.
( I will post birthday pictures after work...)
In other news....my sister and her husband, had their , Noah Scott Goins, October 3rd, 2010 @ 6:39am. He weighed 3lbs 1oz, and was not due until November 27th. At this time, he now weighs 4lbs 5oz and is doing great. He was transferred to a big boy bed last week, and should be going home any day!!
Thats all for now, I will post pictures later.
Love,
Us

Goodbye Summer 2010
Wow, Summer sure did go by really quick. I can't even believe it. I will try to catch you up on our lives....
I have been busy thinking of color schemes for our house, and hoping to have it all done by Thanksgiving. We will be having Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve Dinners here, and I'd like it all done, and feeling like a HOME by then. We also got the yard finished, now we are planning what to do for landscaping in the front of the house. Jesse's dad, Scott, is also drawing up plans to add-on to our shop. It will be a very busy Spring, I can already tell!!
We bought a Camper Trailer in August, so we have been camping a few times! We LOVE camping and we're having so much fun using it. We went to Goldendale, WA and up to Snoqualmie Pass (it was 42 degrees at 1:30pm up there)...despite the weather on the pass, we had so much fun!!
Camden is going to be FIVE, October 26th...ahh i can't even believe it...We will be coming back from San Diego about a week before his birthday. We are very excited for our family trip, and already planning our next one.
Jesse's little brother Josh, bought a house...and he is moving out as I write this. It's a great thing for them, but they will soon realize what it's like to live in the real world. They never have had to buy groceries, pay bills, or do anything of that nature...so it will be a eye-opening experience for them!! Deegan is 6 months old. (seriously probably the biggest 6 month old kid you've ever seen in your life!!) He is trying to sit up by himself, and he's still babbling alot. He looks sooo much like his mom Lauren.
My sister Jami, and her husband Freddie, are expecting a baby BOY November 27th! (Oddly enough that was my original due date for Camden). I am sooo excited to meet this little guy, and i'm hoping to fly to South Carolina the first of the year!!
And last but not least, a little comment about Hurley, our puppy. She is the funniest dog ever!! We are already considering getting a playmate for her. YIKES!!
Well, that's it for now....

Summer Time
Hello everyone :) So, let me try to catch everyone up on our life...
In May, we got a Mini Dachshund named Hurley. She is 6 months old as of July 12th.
She is so much fun, and so cute. We all really love her <3
Our nephew Deegan is getting so big. We all love him. He is so happy, and smiley, and is starting to just talk like crazy. Camden really loves him.
We also just found out that my sister Jami and her husband Freddie are expecting a little boy in December!! So we will have THREE nephews!
Camden has been learning to swim, and is doing so good! He has completed two levels, and will be going to his 3rd level very soon. He has learned so much, and can actually swim in a deep pool. He makes me SO proud. He is such an amazing little guy. He is going into his 2nd year in pre-school. He missed the cut-off for Kindergarten. But its okay, I dont think he needs to grow up that fast ;)
We are still busy planning our trip to San Diego. We can't wait to get out of town, and to really enjoy ourselves. We have so much planned, that I hope we actually can do everything!
Jesse is still getting his race car ready for next season of drag racing. In the meantime, he has brought back out his 1970 Camaro that he built in highschool! It is about 1.5 seconds faster than it was 10 years ago. I think he's hoping for it to get in the high 11's, right now its low 12's.
Well, enough for now, i will post more pictures soon.

..a little update..
I dont know about you, but i am sooo ready for this warm weather :)
Lets see, what has been going on in our lives for the last couple months. Well, we are planning out first HUGE family vacation to San Diego in October!! We are sooo excited. Scott, Denise, Jesse, Camden and I. I think Camden is more excited than all of us ;)
Camden started swimming lessons the beginning of March. He absolutely loves them. He is learning so much. Within the first 10 minutes of his very first class, they had him going underwater without plugging his nose. By the end of his 2nd class, he was diving into the deep end and going off the slide! Amazing!!
We had another nephew join the family March 1st. Deegan Allan Howell arrived at 4:49am weighing in at 10lbs 3.3oz. What a huge bundle of joy. He's pretty stinkin cute. At first, we thought he looked like Camden, but he doesn't really at all. He looks alot like his momma. Josh is loving being a daddy, and he makes a great one!
Jesse has decided to start drag racing again! We are so ecstatic. For this new venture, he bought a 1993 Camaro to make into a strictly drag car. He sold a couple cars, to make ALOT of extra money for this spendy project. We all can't wait to just get back to the track. Scott and Denise were pretty happy that he decided to race once again.
Ill post some pictures, and some more news soon!!
