Daddy’s Home!
Eric had a work trip October 1 - 19 to India with work. The last of those days he got to spend some free time in Germany, but needless to say, he was gone a LONG time! Campbell and I spent most of that time at my parents house in Nederland and then my mom came back to Kingwood to stay with us the last few days. While we were there, Campbell had her first visit to a pumpkin patch. She was definitely the cutest pumpkin in the patch and did pretty well posing for pictures. She also turned 4 months during this time and went to her 4 month checkup. She weighed in at 14 pounds and 5 ounces and was 24.5 inches long. This was 50th percentile for weight and 60th percentile for length. I was definitely happy to have the help and the company of my mom and day. Campbell enjoyed spending time with her Mia and Poppa as well.
We were both very happy to pick Eric up at the airport and Campbell gave him a big smile when she saw him. He was able to stay home with us the next two days to adjust being back in the states and she studied him hard every time he was around. Once he started giving her baths again and singing “Splish Splash I Was Taking A Bath”, she knew just who was back…daddy! He then had to turn around and take a quick trip to El Paso for one night, but hopefully he is here to stay for a while…unless they want to send him to San Diego again…I think we might go with him on that one!
This past weekend we spent at Eric’s dad’s house in Sealy. His dad and wife hadn’t seen Campbell in a while and man they thought she was big! We enjoyed spending the weekend there and Eric was able to help his dad with some repairs and jobs around the house and at the ranch. Campbell got some time in with the tractor as well. She immediately reached for the wheel like she was driving. Grandpa turned the tractor on and it didn’t scare her in the least…we weren’t ready to take a spin…yet.
Hopefully we’ll now get back into a groove of being all together again. We missed him a lot!
