Re-Entering the Blogosphere!

I know it has been ages since I have updated our blog and I apologize for being a terrible blogger! With the holidays and starting a new job, we have been quite busy! Cameron is not 8 1/2 months old and growing like a weed! He is an absolute joy to be around and is the happiest baby I have ever seen. He always has a smile on his face and is learning so much so fast!

He is getting his first two teeth on the bottom and love to eat everything we give him. His favorite snacks are Baby Mum Mums and graham crackers. He wolfs down every type of baby food we have throw at him. Our dinners tend to be a bit messy but Cameron loves to sit in his highchair and eat. In the past month he has been taking the spoon from our hands and feeding himself which makes it ten times messier but oh so cute!

Yesterday, we traveled to Atlanta, IL to visit Cameron's Uncle Derek, Aunt Tonya, and Cousing Adalyn for Addy's 2nd birthday party! Surprisingly, Cameron did fairly well in the car. We only had once incident where he sprayed himself, me, and his carseat with juice. Cameron loved seeing his aunt, uncle, cousin, Grandma Sally, and everyone else at the party. He especially liked meeting the little girl who is about 6 months older than him. We were hoping that seeing the other kids crawling and walking around would inspire him to get the motivation to crawl but no luck so far. He is quite content just sitting there and having things handed to him!

We are so excited that the weather is finally starting to warm up. We are looking forward to spending a lot of time with Cameron outside. He hasn't been able to be out in the air very much since being born due to how little he was and then being winter time. Daddy decided that since baseball season is approaching, it was time to break out some White Sox gear for Cameron. Below is Cameron ready for some baseball!


So far Cam hasn't said his first word, but we now it is just a matter of time before he starts. He babbles constantly and there have been a few times we swore he has said "Hi", "Hey", or "mama" but haven't been sure. He is very aware of everything going on around him and loves to watch his big sister Maggie run around the house. Maggie has actually let him start petting her and oftentimes Cameron decides it would be fun to pull her ears. Maggie is very protective of him and doesn't like when people other than mommy, daddy, and our parents get near him.

We have a lot of exciting things coming up in the next couple of months. We will be celebrating Cameron's first Easter, his first Mother and Father's day, his first birthday, and the birth of his new baby cousin due on June 10th. We are excited that another little boy will be joining the family when our sister-in-law, Tonya, has Addy's new brother!

I hope to start updating the blog more so we can keep everyone up to date on our little boy's life! If I don't, call me and yell at me! Sometimes mommy's need motivation too!
