Our Little Pumpkin

Cameron's is currently sleeping through his first Halloween. He had a long day at school and we intended to go to our church fall festival but he fell asleep instead. Poor fella. We did get some pics in his pumpkin outfit before school. He is a perfect little pumpkin.

Go Cardinals

When Adam and I started dating he made sure I was aware of a few things about him. He hates frogs. Loves his family and is a die hard St. Louis cardinals fan. It's only fitting to raise C as a little cardinal too. Winning the World Series was very exciting. Go cardinals!!!

7 months

How can it be? Cameron Charles, you are 7 months old!!
What joy you bring to each day and moment of our lives. This month has gone by so quickly.
At 7 months with your coming home outfit!
So what have you been up to this month?
7 months of LOVE
- You have mastered sitting on your own. Of course over protective mom sticks pretty close when you are sitting up but you are doing really well with this. You have learned to right yourself when you start to fall. You still fall over sometimes but can sit for much longer now.
Sitting up ready for church.
- You will not stay on your stomach very long. You immediately roll over. You've been rolling from tummy to back for months ( since about 2 months) but in the past few weeks you flip instantly. You still haven't rolled from back to tummy and have really been content to lay on your back. You will roll up on your side but decide you like your back just fine.
Relaxation
-We just thought you were talking a lot before. Now You talk so much more and are so funny how you have little conversations. You use inflection and change your pitch. It's precious. You also squeal, screech and make sure you have our attention.
Talking!
- You are such a content, joyful little boy. You laugh all the time. You think mommy and daddy are very funny. You love when daddy blows raspberries on your tummy, plays peekaboo, flies you like superman or does push ups over you.
Joy!
Daddy's best friend!
- You love your doggy Albe. You will hear him coming down the hall and stop playing or nursing to look for him. Albe is very patient with your petting and ear pulling. He is becoming more fond of you too. He likes to lay where he is touching you if you are sleeping in mommy's arms.
-You are a mama's boy, but you love to play with your daddy too!! You are still nursing 5-6 times a day. You are eating a little more solids, but still don't enjoy it. I think you do it to make me feel better! You do like to drink from a cup, which we think is funny. Whenever I have a cup you reach for it and know just how to drink from it.

Mommy's little boy!
- You love to ride in the stroller. You get really excited when we are putting you in your stroller. You like strolling down to the lake and around campus. Uncle John enjoys taking you strolling.
This is the life!
- We took you to daddy's Motor Development class to illustrate a 6 month olds motor skills. You did great showing all of your tricks. Daddy's students were very impressed.

Such a big boy!

This month you also got your first haircut ( 10/1/11).

We made a trip to Hattiesburg this month and while we were there you got lots of loving from your grandparents, aunts, uncles and even great grandparents. Cameron was able to sport his Southern Miss gear. We are looking forward to taking him to a game in a few weeks.

Our little patient

C had surgery today to remove adhesions from his circumcision. He was such a trooper and is doing pretty well considering. Seeing your baby so helpless was soo hard!! These pics are the progression of the day, from bright and early until we headed home. ( I am posting from my phone and the pics got out of order, sorry)

Pumpkin patch

We had a great time with Cameron at the pumpkin patch this weekend and were so glad Gigi and Papa could join us. I know he will really enjoy it when he is a little older and can ride the horse and hay ride. Here are some pictures of our little pumpkin.

First Haircut



We went to Hattiesburg for a visit the first weekend in October and decided it was time to give Cameron his first hair-cut. He had lost all of his original hair on top of his head but never lost the hair on the sides. It had gotten really long (down to his ear lobes) and I would try and keep it tucked behind his ears but that was looking a bit girly. So while we were at Gigi and Papa's house he got his first haircut. He looks like such a big boy.
