Cam's Boo Boo

I got a call from daycare today saying that Cam got a bit of a boo boo. He was playing with one of the push walker toys and it tipped over, taking him with it. He flipped right over the front of it and smashed his face on the floor! Poor little monkey - his lip bled for a while and got all swollen. He went right back to playing just fine, but has quite the fat lip. I took a picture using my cell phone camera of my baby boy with his big lip. Check it out:

It's been too long!

I know, I know... it has been a LONG time since we have posted anything. We have been getting back into the swing of things with Tim being home from Egypt - Cam has been very happy to have Dada home! We are hoping to do a post in the next day or two with lots more infomration and pictures, but for now, here are two really cute pictures of Cam that Aunt Susan took when she and Alex were visiting in July.

Cam is the coolest kid on the block

But even cool kids need a nap sometimes.

This morning...

In the mornings, while I take a shower, I let Cam play on the floor in the bathroom. I bring a basket of toys in there for him to play with, so he is usually pretty good. This morning though, he got into a bit of trouble... see for yourself below:

Two milestones

Two milestones i was thinking about today:
1) Tim is coming home tomorrow. When he gets home, he will have been gone for almost an entire month (from July 7th til August 5th). Crazy!! I can't wait to see what he thinks of Cam when he gets home, because in the last month, Cam has just learned so much! He is so much more mobile than when Tim left.

2) On Saturday, Cam turned 9 months old (post to follow) - that means that he has been outside of the womb for longer than he was in there cooking. Nine months have gone so quickly, I can't even believe it. He is growing up so fast!!!

Dear Daddy: Weekend Four

Hi Daddy,
This weekend Mama and I were on our own. On Friday night we went over to Grandma and Grandpa's house for dinner. Barbara and Friedbert were there too. I got to meet them on Thursday night so on Friday I was a lot more used to them and played with both of them. I let Barbara hold me and I cuddled with Friedbert's knee. All four of them went to California very early on Saturday morning so I won't see them for a while.

On Saturday Mama and I were supposed to go to the farmer's market but it was raining so we didn't go. We both got a little stir crazy so we went to Target for something to do that day. It rained all day long so we couldn't go outside or anything.

On Sunday Uncle Matt came home from the Spanish Immersion class he was at all last week. He played with me for a while, then we went to BavarianFest. There was good music and good food too. I played on the grass and got to eat a little bit of strudel. Yummy!

Here are some pictures of me. I love you Dada and I hope you come home VERY soon!!
Love, Cam Cam


This is what I do while Mama is in the shower. I didn't unroll the toilet paper this time, but I was playing right around there!

Then I played in the sink.
Mama and me
Playing with Uncle Matt
This is right before I put the bucket on my head. Unfortunately, all of Mama's pictures of that were blurry, so you will just have to imagine it.
Peek-a-boo!!
I figured out the light switch. I like to turn it ON and OFF again and again.
Look at me, standing up on the stool!
After a long day of playing, I got tired out.
Since Uncle Matt was here, Mama could get a video of me walking with my push-toy. I have gotten really good at it - I used to need a lot of help so I wouldn't fall, but now I can push the toy all on my own. I am getting so big!!
