Today was a pretty good day! The only downside about 1:00 church is waiting all morning for it! We had a one hour family snuggle in our bed after Camilla woke up, and then got up and got ready for church. It was not my morning. I tried to curl my hair with hot rollers and it totally didn't work out! I also have a wardrobe malfunction with my ever growing stomach and am down to one skirt that actually fits. Not much longer though! While we were waiting until it was time to leave we had some fun tickle sessions and Camilla got giggling really hard. It totally made me smile. We left the house an hour early as per usual to make it to the church for choir. As I was walking my shoes kept coming un-done (silly Velcro). Choir went really well and Mr. Stannix did a great job watching Camilla (like he always does). During Sacrament meeting I was released from my calling as ward choir pianist which brought mixed emotions. It was a calling that I really enjoyed doing because I got to play on the piano, but I was slightly relieved as I've been stressing about how I'm going to feed a new born when I have choir and then organ right after (2 hour block).
After the Sacrament was blessed and passed I hopped off the organ to sit with my hubby and little girl for the rest of Fast and Testimony meeting.That kid seriously cracks me up. I should have been more serious and I'm sure my face turned red as I giggled in the third bench from the front, but I couldn't help myself. I mentioned in my last post that Camilla was sticking a finger up her nose at breakfast the other day. She started doing it in the middle of the meeting, so I said (very seriously) "No, that's yucky" and gently pulled her hand down. At that point a devious little smirk appeared on her face, and she slowly started raising her finger to her nose again. Well, after about the third "No, that's yucky", she was grinning from ear to ear and decided TWO fingers would be even more hilarious. There was no stopping her now. So I let her. The worst (not really) part was that she was standing on the bench for all eyes to see. After a few seconds with both fingers up her nose, she discovered something fascinating...she could snort! And that she did for the next couple of minutes. A snort followed by a little giggle (repeat). It was soo hard to distract her, and I couldn't be serious enough to stop her if I tried. Mr. Stannix and I just quietly giggled and smirked at each other across the bench. Is that bad?
The rest of the meetings were fabulous! Mr. Stannix took Camilla to nursery and ended up helping out for most of the first hour. When he left she cried for a bit (I was told) but is getting better. After church a sister came up to me and said, "I have to tell you! Camilla was so cute today when I went in for singing time!..." and proceeded to explain how Camilla was lining up the baby dolls in chairs for singing time. A nursery leader also told me that Camilla was "Great today!". It's such a relief to finally see her interacting and playing in nursery. Daddy said she was super happy when he went to pick her up! Before we left to go home, Camilla found a little girl bundled in her stroller and said "Baby!" and proceeded to play with her, hug her, blow kisses to her, make her wave and talk, and make her blow kisses. It was super cute watching them. I think they like each other! Hooray for a friend in Nursery!
Just wanted to make sure I wrote her snorting story somewhere so that we don't forget it! What a character!

Isn't it funny when they realize something new they can do? Or something that we don't want them to do? hehe Love, Alyson
