We had Cameron's 2nd birthday party this past weekend. We held it at our local state park. We were having a cold spell this weekend and the wind was really strong, but he still enjoyed himself! We had a train themed party. He was wearing his train conductor outfit, but because of the weather you can't see it in any of the pictures. He loved his cake and was SO excited to get his very own big boy bike! I can't believe my little boy is already two! Time is going WAY too fast! Happy Birthday Sweet Boy!

Happy Halloween!

Halloween this year was a lot of fun! Savannah was not sick, like last year, and Cameron quickly figured out that if he took his bucket up to people's door they would give him candy! They had a blast getting to go house to house with their cousins!

Each year, our church holds a Halloween festival on the green in our neighborhood. The kids had a blast. They were able to bounce in the bounce house, eat cotton candy and popcorn, get balloons made for them, play games and win candy! What more would a child want?

Happy 2nd Birthday Cameron!

These are some pictures Savannah made for Cameron

Yum!

Blowing his candles out

His yummy birthday dinner...one of his favorites : )

He was so proud of himself for blowing the candles out

Cameron turned 2 this past Thursday. I can't believe he is already 2! He is growing up so fast! He is such a loving little guy and has the sweetest, tender spirit about him! He loves to hug and give kisses. His favorite shows right now are Barney and Dora. It is so cute to hear him sing all the songs. He is beginning to talk a lot now. My favorite is when he turns his little hands over, squints his face and says "Uh-Oh, where go"? I am going to try to get it on video so I can treasure it forever. He enjoys everything about the outdoors and would probably live out there if we let him. He is total boy when it comes to his love for bugs, dirt, and being able to spot a puddle from a mile away. He is completely obsessed with daddy's IPad and can navigate his way around it better than I can. He loves me, but is a complete daddy's boy, as well as a Papaw's boy! His favorite toys are cars, trains and bubbles. Unfortunately, he is still a very picky eater. Having me as a mom, I am afraid he may never out grow it! I am so in love with this little guy! He truly lights up our lives and makes us laugh with his adorable talk, facial expressions (he is very expressive) and personality! I wish I could stop time and keep him my little boy forever. I know that is not possible though : (
We had planned to celebrate his birthday by going to Monkey Joe's and having cupcakes. However, Savannah ended up with strep throat so we ended up being stuck in the house all day. We were able to still have cupcakes. And Savannah decided to make him some pictures for his birthday and "wrap" them all by herself. It was so cute and sweet! We will be having his party the first weekend of November so I will post more birthday pictures then.

I promise to post more very soon!

What we've been doing.....

Savannah helped out at our recent yard sale by selling drinks and snacks! She was so excited!

Cameron taking Gabby for a ride in the pink jeep! He LOVES that he now knows how to make it work on his own. Only problem is he has no idea how to steer it and crashes into everything! And yes, Nana has plans on buying a boy car for him in the near future....until then....its the pink jeep!

Cameron finally learned how to swim independently with his puddle jumpers on. He is now a little fish in the water!

Cameron and I have started a Mommy and Me gymnastics class. He is loving it! All the climbing and swinging and jumping is right up his alley! Here he is enjoying his 1st lollipop after class! He now begs for them every time he sees them!

Our little monkey!

So...here are a few things that have been going on around here. Things are very busy but going well! Savannah has switched from half day to full day preK and is really enjoying it! We just had our first parent/teacher conference and got a wonderful report. We were told that she is a sweet and quiet little girl in class who listens well, follows directions, doesn't like to ruffle any feathers, gets along with everyone in class, and is her little napper during rest time. We have been going back and forth on what extra-curricular activities she would be participating in this year. We have decided on dance and gymnastics with continuing with private swim lessons (hopefully on Saturdays). Cameron began speech therapy about a month ago and has really been improving. His therapist says that he is doing great, has a wonderful attention span for his age and that he should be caught up within the next couple of months. So that is what we have been doing recently....
