'Mille

Happy 17th Birthday, Camille!

Here are some things you may not know about the youngest kid in our family:

1) Camille and Hermione are friends.

2) She likes Betsey Johnson and Seven Jeans, both of which she received for her birthday and I was massively jealous.

3) Dx calls her Switzerland. Camille is a neutral party. You can tell her things, and she may or may not tell them to others. Camille is everybody's friend and nobody's alli.

4) She usually doesn't clean her room. That's okay with her parents because she has success in other areas.

5) She fits in all of my prepregnancy clothes. Boo.


6) She likes babies (duh, she's one of us.)

7) She loses money all the time. If you find money in her room, you can feel free to take it because she will just think she lost it.

8) Her favorite "restaurant" is Taco Bell. She usually overdoes it there.

9) She was the biggest star of the Danville Children's Musical Theater, but she is retired.

10) Camille is a voracious reader.

11) Camille has as many friends as Celia has. She's a social butterfly and everybody likes her.

12) She only kind of knows how to ski, and that's okay with her.

13) One year mom or dad tricked her into thinking she is sporty by making her play volleyball.

14) As far as we know, she's pretty righteous. She goes to seminary without issue.

15) Cam is not embarrassed to bring her friends over to the house. They come over a lot and mom feeds them cookies.


16) Cam does not like to practice the piano. This is her only behavioral flaw.


17) When Camille was little, she wanted a nickname. Since Giselle is Ellie and Lenore is Nori, Camille would naturally be Mille. I still call her that.


I hope you had a lovely birthday! I know you got everything you wanted, because I saw what you got and I really wanted all of it. Badly.


Lookin good on Christmas morning.

I've never seen that photo of Camille and Hermione. I didn't realize Camille was cuter.

You are one day late. Better start working right now on Paige.

Emma Waston looks short and creepy. If you look closely, you can see the straps to her bra.

I'm not surprised that Camille is such a voracious reader. I will never forget babysitting her when she was about one and a half. I put her to bed with a STACK of books (seriously, about 20). I thought "yea, right!" So I went and checked on her about 10 min later and she had gone through about three of the books. I watched her as she studied each page intently. She did not skip a page. Checked back another 5 or 10 minutes later and she was still studying her books. She was by then to book 9 or so. I was amazed. One and a half!!!
