Simply Sunday

As I post, Mr. Stannix is bathing our niña.  He was kind enough to give me a few minutes to myself and watch her in the tubby.  Today was an interesting day.  Mr. Stannix was sick and unable to go to church.  Not a fan of going solo, I can tell ya that much.  It was difficult trying to swing Choir and playing the organ in sacrament meeting, but we made it through. :)  She was a bit of a Mommy's girl today and wouldn't go to anyone, made it difficult to pass her off.  She screamed the whole way out while I went up to the organ to play.  Everyone chuckled, poor girl.  Kinda funny though. 

Tonight, Mr. Stannix and I watched Zorro together.  The couch cushions were off, infront of the couch so that Camilla could climb up and down them for a while, so we got some blankets and layed in front of the TV for a movie.  At the end, Camilla plopped right down in between us and snuggled.  It was such a great moment to remember.  It reminded me of one of my recent favorite songs "Let them be Little".  It talks about letting our kids be little, letting them giggle, and letting them sleep in the middle. It is one of the best things just watching Camilla as she is snuggled up between us.  Her head bouncing slowly to the music, feet resting on both Mike and I, and her just snuggling.  She started conducting to the end credits, it was priceless.  She sticks her pointer finger out and waves her arm.  She's such a talented little girly already.  She loves music (and especially spanish music I found out today, she sure had some moves going!!).  She's such a little joy.  Every moment is so worth it. Specially when she gives us her little smile, or runs over and wraps her arms around our neck and smothers us with her giant open-mouthed kisses.  I wish she could stay little forever, but at the same time, I'm excited to see her grow up, and see what she will become.

I wish I had some pictures to share, but the camera sat all alone today. 

I hear a giggly girl and a draining tub.  Time to go read some stories and snuggle her to sleep (Unless ofcourse, Mr. Stannix wants the honor tonight).

Life.Is.Great.
