Wow, I suck at blogging lately. That and I leave my camera home anytime we go anywhere. Since my last post which was Dallas' birthday we have had a summer of camping. We love it. I love being able to sit back and relax. Russell takes care of everything while we are camping. All I do is get Dallas dressed, bathed and back in bed, Russell does everything else. He is a sweetie. Dallas always has a blast, he loves that I don't stop him from getting dirty, he is outside all day!! Our next camping trip is going to be the longest we have attempted, 1 week!! Russell is going on the deer hunt so Dallas and I are going to join him. I hope the weather is semi warm. I know its not going to be hot and sunny like I like since it will be October, but I am at least hoping for jacket weather and NO snow!!! I wont forget my camera for that trip.
Dallas is such a cheese ball lately. He says the funniest things and pulls the strangest faces. He is starting to make more sense when he talks. He has always been a talker but now they are turning into sentences. I love that he can tell me what he needs and wants. He loves playing with other kids and is nice most of the time.... He loves the color blue, everything to him is blue right now. He is so much fun to have around. Dallas is also going to be a big brother!!! Yepp that's right, We're PREGNANT!!! We are due March 25th. Dallas doesn't really understand what that means yet, when I ask him if he wants a brother he tells me no and when I ask if he wants a sister he tells me, "Cam Cam" which is my sisters daughter. He is a dork. With me being pregnant I am sick all day. Dallas is a sweetie, he has witnessed me vomiting. He is always so concerned with it. He will try to come into the bathroom or stand outside the door, yelling" mom, mom, mom," until I answer him and then he replies, "you alright?" I will tell him yes and he tells me its yucky and gross.
One of the most exciting things besides being pregnant is that Russell was released from probation!! We are both way excited!!! He had been on probation for almost 3 years. I am so proud of him, for being able change his life around the way he did. Drugs are such a hard thing to come away from. The whole process we have been through was one of the hardest things I have ever done. I have written the story down, everything that happened and my emotions during the whole thing, but that is something that I have saved for us. It will be something that I share with our children when they get older and if its something they question. I am very proud of Russell and I am so glad that I stayed with him during the whole thing, I don't know where we will be with out each other.
