Jolly Ol Saint Nick!

Ho Ho Ho!!

As ya'll can see we were soooo excited to hang with our pal Santa! When Mama asked me what I would say if St. Nick asked me my whole name, I replied that my full name is: Camden Boos! I also did not hesitate to tell him m y number one wish: Rollerskates!

Mama thought that I, Dashy B, would be freaked out by the Jolly Old Elf- but as you can see- Santa and I became fast friends!

We were so happy that Mama and Daddy were both there to celebrate our seeing Santa Claus...such a fun family outing!

Even though I, Camden Boos, was a very bad boy all day...up until the moment I headed out the door to see him, I promise that I will be a good boy all the way through Christmas, (Hmmmmm....I may have been crossing my fingers on this one)!

No worries everybody...I Dashy Doodles made a secret promise to the Big Guy with the White Beard that much to my parents dismay; I will keep training my vocal chords in true Adam Lambert fashion!

Hope you are all finding yourselves enjoying this season and feeling the magic of Christmas!

Lots of Hot Chocolate Kisses and Marshmallow Mustaches!

Mr. Lookalou and Dashy Bleu

An Update from Little Boy Bleu

Hey Ya'll!!

It's been a bit since I've blogged, so I thought I'd take a moment to catch you adults on what I've been up to these days!
Life is sweet for me and now that I've started crawling, I'm a much happier little dude!

Tomorrow there is a therapist coming to meet me and check my motor skills! Mama and Daddy just want to be sure that I'm ok and are doing all that they can to help me reach my full potential! I know they worry about me...so once we have some feedback from our visitor tomorrow, I'm hoping they can rest a bit easier!

No matter what, I'm a sweet and loving little boy! I don't scream nearly as much as I used to because I'm able to express myself in words! I more than make up for my delay in gross motor by my advanced verbal skills!

Our new pediatrician said I have the social and verbal skills of an 18 month old!! Yay Me!!!

I LOVE to try to say new words! So far, at a few days shy of 14 months, I can say the following: Mama, Dada, Baba, Mimi, Ali, Dog, Cat, Tree, Uh-Oh, Ball, Car, 'MMMMMM (when I like what I'm eating) Nigh Nigh, Bye Bye, TV, Pee Pee (ha ha), and a few more...

In addition, I can mimic on que the animal sounds for a: cat, cow, duck and monkey!

Hard to believe that this time last year I was so teeny tiny! This Christmas I'm so excited because I will get to play with our new toys with my big brother...hopefully he will share his cars with me because I LOVE cars and want to be just like Camden Boos!!

Stay Warm and Cozy!!!

Lots of Love... Baby Bleu

Baby It's Cold Outside...

Brrrrrrrrrr!!!

Today was a snow day for us!

Mommy decided she didn't want to drive us boys around town today so she canceled her kickboxing class and we had a cozy morning in!

We set our sights high as we ventured out with baby Dashy, but then Mama realized that she didn't have mittens for him, so we only kept him out for a few minutes! He loved being pulled in the wagon as always!

I got to gallivant around in the snow for almost half an hour, but it was so cold that my hands started getting icy so Mama made me come inside! I was persistent in my efforts to try to stay out, but she wasn't havin it!

Luckily for me, I got to warm my tummy with some hot chocolate and marshmallows! As You can see...I loved it!!

Following Dashy's nap and our lunchtime, we had a blast shooting hoops and watching Veggie Tales with Mama up in the playroom!!

Lastly, to round out this day of fun, Mama even baked me chocolate chip cookies to eat after my nice long nap!

So that's about it from here...getting ready for Santa and being a good boy as I know he's gonna find out whose naughty and nice!!

Love,
Camden Boos!

The Boos Brothers Break It Down!!!!

Holiday Cheer...

Greetings!!
Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving weekend...we sure did! We hosted Thanksgiving at our house this year- Daddy made our friend from California- Oliver's amazing Mac n Cheese, Mama made a turkey that seems to be the gift that keeps on giving, Auntie Ali came over and brought her delicious sweet potato casserole, stuffing, and made mashed potatoes of which Gigi would have been so proud! Our friends, Avery, Berlin and Auntie Jen, Uncle Adam, and "Grandma Pam" came over to enjoy the holidays too! They brought two yummy pies and green bean casserole! Needless to say we have a TON of leftovers and had a great time celebrating and Giving Thanks!

Over the weekend, we got our house all ready for Christmas and are really enjoying the glow of Christmas throughout our home...such a cozy feeling!

Daddy leaves for his trip to LA and Vegas on Friday...Mama wishes she could go! We will miss him, but are so excited to have our Mimi come and stay with us until next Tuesday! Nothing like the kisses and cuddles of sweet Mimi!

We can't wait for Daddy to get back because when he does, we are going to visit Santa!!!

Hope ya'll are staying safe and happy this Holiday Season!

With Lots of Love and Snuggles...

The Boos Brothers

Boos Has Swagger!

Bleu on the Move!!

After a long awaited debut, (I kept ya'll waiting on purpose)...here I am in all of my little robotic crawling glory!!

I sure do love exploring the world around me...I fully plan on keeping Mama and Daddy on their toes as I move from room to room- a little more baby proofing may be in all of our future!

Hope this makes everybody smile!!

Love ya Lots,

Little Boy Bleu

The Boos and Bleu Bubble Show...

Here we are in all of our bubbly tubby glory!!

Isn't it so funny how Dashy loves to dunk his face under the water...Daddy caught us in the act of our silly behavior while Mama was at work!

Things have been very busy for us these past few months and as sad as we have been that Gigi and Grandad Ben are no longer with us; we also take great comfort in the fact that their souls are once again reunited in perfect and peaceful glory! Mama and Daddy have promised to keep their memory alive by always telling us stories so that we grow to "know" them our whole lives.

We are all doing our best to get back into our routine here at the Weber House-the past several days have been a prelude to winter with grey skies and cold air!

We are really looking forward to Thanksgiving with Auntie Ali and some friends this year! We promise to post lots of pictures of our turkey day bliss!

We also can't wait to open all of our cool presents at Christmas time....oh yeah, and being with Mimi, Grandaddy, Auntie B, Uncle Jerry and all of our cool cousins will be a blast too!!

Hope all is well in the Land of Big People!

Lots of Love and Snuggles!

Camden Boos and Dashy Bleu

Baby Oliver Is Here!!!

Another Angel has arrived!!!!

Baby Oliver Lloyd Richardson was born on October 28th at 11:51P. A very handsome and perfect little man; weighing in at 7lbs 11oz and 21 1/2 inches long!

Mama Megan and Daddy Steve are doing great and enjoying their little piece of Heaven!

We are so excited to meet this little guy and show him the ropes...

Until then, Baby Oliver, be a good boy for you Mama and Daddy!!!

Lots and Lots of Love, Kisses, and Cuddles,

Camden and Dashy (and our Mama and Daddy too)!!!

No Tricks...Just Treats!!!

Dashy Wanna Cracker!!!

Lil Besties!!

The Gang!

Dora and her Pirate Slave!

TRICK OR TREAT YA'LL!!!

What a BLAST we had on Halloween!!
As you can see we got to hang with all of our friends....Gavin, Avery, Berlin, Breckin, and baby Lofton (not pictured). Our Mama and Daddy and Auntie Ali , Dee and Mr. Matt got to tag a long for the festivities!
This year, me, Camden Boos really "got it" and enjoyed running up to the houses shouting: "Arrrrrrg Matey Gimmie That Candy Right Now Pweeeze...."
For those of you that don't know what I, Baby Dashy, went as this year...well, I was the Pirate's sidekick...a Parrot!!

Mama had to teach before the fun began and when she came home she realized that Daddy used her expensive eyeliner to draw on my beard!! Oooops Daddy! The good news is that he actually did a good job and didn't ruin The Goods (my face, OR the eyeliner)!

Hope everyone had a blast too!!!

With Love and Sugar Highs Forever,

Camden Boos and Dashy Bleu

Birthday Bleus

My Beautiful Little Boy Bleu:

As I write to you on the eve of your birth, I am amazed at how fast a year can pass!

It is difficult to believe that one year ago tonight I was still carrying you around safe in my belly...unfathomable at this point to recall that I had yet to meet you-because I can not remember what Life was like without Dashton Bleu Weber!

I remember going to bed so anxious for your arrival...wondering what you would look like- how big or small, and if you'd be ready for the world that awaited.

I will never forget holding you for the first time-immediately after you were born. You remained snuggled in my arms for hours! Pure euphoric bliss for your Mama!

Mostly, you have been a dream baby...sent from Heaven to remind us of the beauty and complexities of Life.

From the beginning, you have had a Voice...
Your Daddy and I have always known when you are not pleased. You can go from "zero to mad" in one second. Nevertheless, it doesn't take much to soothe you, our angel baby, and we adore you beyond words.

You have a smile that touches my soul and a boistrous laugh the makes my heart skip a beat!

You are in awe of Camden and simply cannot get enough of him. Sometimes I look at photos of you both and the resemblance is uncanny, yet you each have your own unique look and personality.

I hope that throughout your lives, the two of you will cultivate an unbreakable bond of Brotherhood and Friendship.

Dashy, without even knowing, you have been a refuge during a sad year for our family. With the loss of our beautiful Aunt Susan Yoder and our sweet Gigi this year, your innocence has lifted us up and given us a reason to smile.

In the span of a lifetime, One Year is the blink of an eye- so many milestones occur, yet they can be blurred by the hustle and bustle of Life.

As your Mama, I have tried to do my best to soak in each and every moment with you: from the first time I held you in my arms, to your first: time meeting your big brother, your smile, bath, giggle, full night's sleep, word (ball), the first time you ate table food, and yes...even the last time you nursed. I have loved and treasured it all and I promise to continue to do so throughout your life!

My greatest wish is that both you and your brother will grow to appreciate the "Little Things" because it is They that make Life so grand!
Thank you, my Little Boy Bleu, for choosing me to be your Mama! Words will never fully capture how much I love you. There aren't even enough stars in the sky to encompass my love!

This first year has been nothing short of wonder and awe and I truly cannot wait to experience many many more!

Happy First Birthday Dashton Bleu Weber...my heart is forever yours!

Love Love Love- Mama

Fall-In Love!!!

Almost One!!!

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!

Hey Ya'll-it's official....Fall is HERE!!!
Today was a beautiful, crisp, and cozy day!! We've been anticipating this weather for quite awhile and in celebration of it's arrival we took a family walk today!!
I, Camden Boos, am all about pulling My Dashy in the wagon...it's my new thing! Dashy loves it too because he gets to actually "move" without having to do any work. So typical of my little bro! :)
We are so excited for all the different events that are around the corner...first up this month: Our trip to Ohio this coming Thursday to celebrate Mimi and Grandaddy's 40th Wedding Anniversary!! Wow..that's a long long time!
We are also going to give Dashy B his first birthday party and it will be so special because he will be surrounded by many family members and get to have his first taste of my favorite thing on the planet...Chocolate...aka: CHOCY... "I WUVVVVV CHOCY"!!
When we return to Franklin; Mama and Daddy will take us to the Pumpkin Patch where I will pick out a few punkins and pet some cool farm animals!! I can't wait to show off our super awesome punkin patch to Dashy- he's going to love it!!
Mimi's and Mama's Birthday are in October too!! Such a fun time of year for us!
Let me just say that I'm countin the days til Halloween!! I'm going to be a Pirate and Dashy, a Parrot!! I will pull him around in the wagon during Trick or Treat and run up to houses saying: "Arrrrrr Matey...give me your candy right now....pweeeeze"! I've been practicing a lot!!!

Hope everyone is doing great! Sending Love, Hugs, Kisses and Cuddles from me and Dashton Bleu!!

Hey Ya'll...

It's been awhile since we checked in to our blogworld! Not without good reason, of course...

We were traveling to Ohio and had a long stay...Sadly, our Gigi has gone up up up in the sky to Heaven! We are very sad that we can't see or kiss her anymore, and so are Mama and Daddy! We do know, however, that she is in a peaceful and perfect place...one day we will get to be together again!

In other news...

From Camden:

I love love love my school and friends! Even though I refuse to nap while at school, I am a good listener and helper! My teachers say I'm a joy!!

Mama and Daddy bought me a new hanging star light for my room...it's red and I love it! I think it's "super duper awesome" and love showing everyone when they come to our house to visit!

From Dashy:

Can ya'll believe that I will be one in two weeks? I had a really rough time while at Mimi and Grandaddy's last week. Everyone thought I had an ear infection, but as it turned out I was getting six teeth in at once! OUCH!!!!

Now I'm back to my happy and silly self! Walking, you may ask??? Well, I think I'd need to crawl first!! Still not really into the idea of exerting too much energy...I'll get there when I'm good and ready! :)

We are heading to Ohio again next week to celebrate Mimi and Grandaddy's 40th Wedding Anniversary and me, Dashy B's first birthday! Auntie Ali found a recipe for a dairy free birthday cake!!!

Lots of Love and Snuggles!!!

Camden Boos and Dashy Bleu!

Labor of Love!!!

Hey Everybody....It's Me...Camden!!

As you can see, we spent the holiday relaxing and playing outdoors! We have finally had a change in the weather and Fall seems to be near! Hard to believe that Baby Dashy will be ONE in just five weeks!!!!!

Mama and Daddy did lots of yard work while we played in our Radio Flyer and I rode bikes and my Jeep with my good lookin neighbor, Katie! She really is a cutie and I love when she includes me...she is, afterall, an older woman!

Hope all is well in Adult Land!!

Love and Kisses to All...
Signing off for myself and my "brudder",

Camden Boos!

Balloon Boy!!!

Little Maconohey on the Bongos...!!!

Hey Everyone....Sorry it's been so long since we've been in touch! We've had a few busy weeks! We returned from another great journey to Ohio last Monday and then Mama was crazy busy with working at the Studio!

Since we got back I'm excited to report that Mama and Daddy bought a new car...well, it's used, but new to us!! A 2008 GMC Acadia! It's got all the bells and whistles...double sunroof, third row (with a walk through), and the best part...A TV with headphones, which is me and Cam's favorite part!! We were sad to say goodbye to our first "family" car: the Nissan Murano...as it treated us very well!

In other news...I'm almost 11 months and guess what...still not crawling! I love to scream actually shriek, until someone brings me what I need or want! I am doing everything on my own time and everybody is just gonna have to deal with it! I secretly know how to crawl and walk but I just don't feel like showing anyone yet! :)

My big bro started school last week...he is in the Toddler 2 class and although he refuses to nap, he loves learning! This week, the letter A, the number 1, and a bit of Spanish...HOLA!

Daddy has been working super hard this week, as the CMA Nominations were announced! Mama's so proud of her clients: the ladies of Little Big Town for their nod!!!

Will the summer ever end? We can't wait for fall! My birthday is just around the corner...hard to believe!!

Lots and Lots of Love and Screams...

Dashy B!

Now I Know My ABC's

Just Another Day In The Life...

Hey Ya'll...
Just wanted to share a few photos from our day today...We had a blast playing with our buddy Gavin and during Mama's little photo shoot! Here we are after running through the sprinklers and a nice relaxing tubby!!

Dashy B is looking handsome....Mama tried to recreate a photo shoot done by our amazing photographer, Ilde Cook. Mama and Daddy have pictures of me, Camden, doing the same thing as Dashy below!! We sure are due for a date with Ilde soon...but we need to wait until Dashy is at least walking! (he'd probably have to crawl first...and he's still not interested!)

Hope everyone is having a great week!!

LOTS OF LOVE AND KISSES!

...I Wanna Bang On De Drum All Day!

Hey Ya'll...Check out my cool new drum set! My Auntie Ali is the best!! She brought it over today and I can't stop rockin out!!!

A few other cool things to report-

I am now wearing big boy undies! Only two little accidents today- not too bad, huh? I take a lot of joy out of the fact that I can go potty by myself (TT, not Poo Poo-but I'll get it all down soon)! I even have a potty dance that Mama and I made up! I sure do look silly doing it, but Mama looks even more silly when she does it!!

Dashy is finally starting to show signs of crawling- I'm predicting within the next few weeks! I was crawling much sooner, but we know that my little brudder has a mind of his own and will get around to it in his own sweet time!

Our trip to Ohio was great...we all had a lot of special time with Gigi and Grandaddy Ben; and of course being in the arms of my Mimi and Grandaddy only made it that much better!! I sure do have a sweet spot in my heart for them! I even got to play with my cousins Avery, Jessie, and JJ! My oldest cousin, Elise, wasn't there but I hope to see her next time! We are going back at the end of August to have some more time with them again!

Well, gotta run..."I gotta go TT so I can get a Smarty"!!!

Lots of Love and Toliet Bowl Flushes!!!

~ Camden Boos!

Brotherly LOVE!!!

Greetings Friends!! We sure are having a great summer...both of us are growing up way to fast for Mama's taste, but we make sure we keep it fun and interesting so she doesn't miss a moment of our cuteness (and wildness too)!
A new favorite past time is to hang out in Mr. Camden Boos room after naps where we read and play with Mama. Our naptimes are almost in sync so Mama has been able to get some things done around the house lately (even if it is just lunch, a simple shower and a quick phone call)!
We sure do love our buddy Gavin...he is with us on Tuesdays and Wednesday mornings and we all have really gotten into a great playtime groove! Of course, we still have our Dance Parties post lunchtime! A new summer past time is to run through the sprinklers and get as dirty as possible so Mama has to throw us in a bubble bath!!

In other news, we are going to Ohio this weekend...Our Great Grandaddy Ben is sick so we are headed his way to bring him so love and smiles! He was just diagnosed with small cell Cancer and we ask that you keep him in your thoughts and prayers- we all love and admire him so very much!

We will be sure to write again soon.


Lots of Love and Snuggles: Camden Boos and Dashy Bleu

Young Love...

Here we are...me and my best girl, Breckie during a late night tubby rendezvous!

She and her Mama-Dee, Daddy-Matt, and Baby Brother Lofton (aka: Baby Wafin) all came by the other night to hang out with us! Our new friends Will and Finn (whose Mama is Ginger and Daddy is TJ) also came by! It's so nice having fun friends to be silly with!

Wishing Everyone Love and Smiles!!

Mr. Boos!

PS: MY baby Dashy is nine months old! He says HI and should be making an appearance very soon!

Two 1/2 Going On 20!

The Many Faces Of Camden Boos!!!

To My Handsome Big Boy:
Hi Camden-I can't believe that you are two 1/2 today! Where has the time gone- it truly has felt like the blink of an eye since you were my "Teeny Tiny Lookalou"!
This is not to say that I haven't appreciated each and every moment that you've been in my world! A true gift; and one that has utterly and completely changed my life for the better. I LOVE being your Mama and am so proud of the little man you are growing in to! Yes, that's right...no longer are you a "baby" (though you will ALWAYS be MY baby). Your little body has changed from chubby and squishy to long and lean almost overnight! You still have the cheeks...I hope they stick around for awhile!
When I come into your room to sneak a peak of your peaceful sleeping, I cannot believe how big you look! It melts my heart and breaks it all in the same instant. I wish I could keep you little forever- innocent and wide eyed; yet I also can't wait to watch you experience all that life has in store.
Since your second birthday, you have really shown us who you are: A strong willed yet silly and loving little guy who can't get enough basketball! You would play and watch the game all day- it cracks us up! You have a mean shot and we only hope you continue to hone your skills; because at this rate, you may just be the best player in the world someday! :)
You love to dance and play "air drums" while riding in the car. You have many favorite songs which you insist on hear again and again; and I am proud to say that you appreciate Bob Marley as much as your Mama and Auntie Ali!
You have developed a fear of the dark and refuse to sleep without the closet light on. Each night before bed, you still beg us to leave your door open and the answer is always the same: "No Camden, we do it to keep you safe," yet you still remain persistent in your quest...you get that from me!
You have recently taken an interest in the "potty" and Mama and Daddy are so proud of you! We haven't and will not force the issue because we know in time you will be out of diapers. Just as with anything...in YOUR time! I love that about you...very strong willed. I know, however, it will be a big challenge to raise such a determined young man!

Some of your other favorites:
Mickey Mouse, Thomas the Train, The Backyardigans, Wearing your Sunglasses, Cheerios, Going "Swimming" at the Pool, Curious George, Taking Bubble Baths with Mama, and Your buddies: Gavin, Mason, Avery, and who could forget your little girlfriend: Brecken?!

You are all about your Daddy right now! I actually have to remind myself not to let this hurt my feelings. Your Daddy is very good to you and I love to watch you two play and giggle (the best sound in the world)!

And what a sweet and loving Big Brother you are to Baby Dashy! Last night you asked to feed him a bottle! This was a sight I'll never forget...such a simple yet beautiful moment for your Mama!

Every day I count my blessings that I was chosen to be your Mama!! I love you more than you'll ever know...

"Love Love Love...You You You My Teeny Tiny Teeny Tiny Lookalou"

Bathtime Buddies

Summer Fun...

Here's me and my buddy Gav keepin it real in the sunshine, ya'll!

It's soooo hot here in the South so to beat the heat, Mama turns on the sprinklers and away we go!!

Swimming Lessons with Mr. Whale!

Hey All!!

Check me out...now that I've been taking swimming lessons, I'm teaching my bathtime buddy, Mr. Whale how to hold his breath. I may not be into doing it myself, but: Hey-Mr. Whale...do as I say...not as I do!!!

Hungry Hungy Bleu!!

Hey Ya'll

Wow Am I Hungry These Days! I'm still the happy little guy I've always been; however, I am growing boy and really starting to show some signs of being a bit more demanding these days! I have found my voice and am not afraid to use it!! It's okay though...Mama and Daddy love to be at my beckon call!!

In other news: I'm still anti-tummy time and refuse to roll over from my back to front! I know how, but I just don't want to! Mama always tries to get me to stay on my tummy but I just flip myself right back over to my back! I'll show her... :)

Mama made an appointment for me to see a new doctor next week! His philosophies are more on the natural side of healing, and Mama feels that he may be exactly what we are looking for! Please cross your fingers that he's "the one"!!

Speaking of Mama...she has totally lost it! She is leaving us and Daddy tonight to go sit in a movie theater to be with her other "husband"...EDWARD! For those of you that don't know of this obsession...it's pretty silly! She and several of her closest girlfriends (and fellow Twi Hards) will be sitting in the movies from 7P-2A this evening watching all three of movies in the Saga!! We will miss her, but know that she's really been looking forward to this "girls night" for awhile! Wonder how she plans on pumping in between movies....hmmmmm???

Anyway...Just wanted ya'll to see me in action!!

Lots of Love and Snuggles,

Dashy Bleu

Happy Daddy's Day!!!

Eight Is Great!

Hey Everybody-It's Me...Dashy B!
We have been celebrating my eight month birthday today! Hard to believe, huh? Mama feels like I just arrived but in some ways its like I've always been around!
Summer is here for sure in Tennessee...today is 100 degrees and very very humid, so we decided to do my little photo shoot outdoors with the hope that the humidity would be good for my dry little skin!
I'm such a happy boy and love to play with anything that is within my reach- Nope, not crawling yet, but I should be very soon! I'm not a huge fan of being on my tummy still, but that's ok, because I just roll right on over when Mama tries to give me tummy time!
I love love love my big brother and he loves me! He always kisses me before bedtime and says: Goodnight Budder! Mama usually melts!

Whew, it was hot out there! Mama brought me in to give me a tubby and then Daddy came home to give me some cuddles! Time to eat...I'm a hungry little man!

Ciao!!

Little Boy Bleu
