Cameron is Walking!!




I have held out on writing this post because I didn't have a good picture to share to go along with it. Cameron is FINALLY walking! He took his first step the day before he turned 15 months. He still isn't walking a lot, and chooses crawling over walking most of the time. However, within the past few days he has actually been walking a bit more. Very exciting!!
He also just recently had his 15 month appt. (at 16 months). He checked out wonderfully. He is still a little peanut at 23.6 lbs (29%) and 31 inches tall (36%). He is still such a happy baby! He loves to sing and will do the motions to "If your happy and you know it". It is so cute! He also loves to play peek a boo. He says Da, mama, nuh (for savannah), book, and bo-bo (our dog). Although he doesn't have a large vocabulary, he is still excellent at communicating with you. He has really enjoyed being outdoors now that the weather is nicer. He is a little monkey and climbs on EVERYTHING! He pushes the stool around to where he wants and will then stand on it to get into things. He is such a boy!! I love it though! The sweetest thing that he does right now is gives kisses. They aren't the slobbery kind that most kids this age give, but a sweet pucker that actually makes the kissing sound when he kisses you. Completely melts my heart!!

Happy Valentine's Day

Had to post this picture! Hilarious!! I don't remember what he was mad about?

We had a wonderful Valentine's Day! Myself, my mom, and a few of my friends and our kids went to pass out home-made Valentine's to the seniors living in a local nursing home. I was not sure how Savannah was going to take to all of it, but things went better than I could have ever imagined! Savannah passed out all of her Valentine's and told each senior Happy Valentine's Day with a sweet smile! It was so nice seeing the elder's faces light up when given a Valentine! I am so thankful for this opportunity to get to share with Savannah and teach her about serving! I look forward to many more opportunities like this in the future!

Sickness and Health

So...I never have gotten around to posting those new photos. The kids have had a yucky virus! Savannah started off with it and then gave it to Cameron. This virus was a nasty one. It was like having a stomach bug and a horrible cold all at the same time! It seemed to hit Cameron a bit harder though. We took him back to the Dr again this morning and it seems he now has a sinus infection and a junky sounding chest. We now have antibiotics and a breathing treatment for home so hopefully he will be feeling better very soon!
On another note, I am trying a few things to help us eat healthier. I don't think we eat "bad", but there is definitely room for improvement (especially on my part). I recently bought the books The Sneaky Chef and Deceptively Delicious. They give suggestions and recipes that incorporate pureed fruits and vegetables to help make your meals extra nutritious! I went to the store last night and brought home a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables and plan on trying a few of these recipes this week! I will let you know what I think, as well as try to update some pictures and exciting things happening here!
