Guess Who's Back?



Yes, it is absolutely pitiful and shameful that I haven’t blogged in over a year. No worries, I guess 2012 wasn’t meant for blogging. 2012 was by far the most eventful year for the Philipp fam thus far. Here’s a short list of some of the bigger events in our life:



  • New jobs for both Curtis and I (mine in January, his in September)
  • Curtis graduating from BYU
  • Curtis’ completion of internship
  • Babymoon
  • Family trips to San Diego, California (with the Lambert’s) and Scottsdale, Arizona (with the Philipp’s)
  • New grandchildren additions on both sides of the family (4 on the Philipp side and 2 on the Lambert side – Camden included)
  • Moving out of Provo (it’s pretty much been home since fall of 2005!)
  • Pregnancy
  • Birth of Mr. Camden Philipp!

Most notably, our darling blonde haired, blue-eyed boy joined us in late September. Life has been nothing short of amazing these last 4 months.

Having a newborn in our home fills our days with wonder and amazement. It is awesome to see him grow a little each day (even though I secretly hope he would just stay itty bitty forever). By far, the best milestones he has reached is when he started to genuinely smile (at 6 weeks) and when he has started giggling/laughing (started about 2-3 weeks ago). It is gratifying that we have become his world. I could never have imagined that I could mean so much to one little person and that one little person could mean so much to me. I can hardly fathom the amount of love I have for him. Sure, there are days when he simply won’t go to sleep or is fussy for seemingly no reason… but overall, being a mother is much better than I could have guessed.

And for your viewing pleasure..
