Ticklish!

This is a funny clip of Cami being silly! She is very ticklish and actually loves to be tickled. Before we got the camera out she was all out belly laughing but it kinda calmed down when she saw the camera. She doesn't like to perform on demand :-)

9 Months

Cami had her 9 month check up this week...

Weight: 18 lbs 3 oz

Height: 27 3/4 in

Cheeks: Chubby

This is how Cami greets me each morning.

She discovered the toilet paper... This is one of the funny faces she makes as she is talking and jibber-jabbering. and this is another one.

At 9 months Cami is almost completely off pureed food and only wants finger foods she can feed her self. Although she is proving to be a very picky eater, eating only a small handful of different foods - mainly carrots, cheese, goldfish, and lots of grapes! She is able to do the sign for "milk" and we are working on "eat" and "more." She has learned how to give kisses - nothing better than an open, slobbery mouth on your cheek! She is very interested with everything up above her head. It's as if she just realized there is a whole world up there! She loves pointing up at the lights and fans. We have so much fun watching her learn and grow - nothing is better than seeing the world through the eyes of a child!

Bring Your Daughter to Work Day

Cami enjoyed visiting daddy at work today. We picked him up and treated him to a yummy lunch at Fudruckers. Afterwards, we went back to the golf course and fed the ducks and played on the golf greens. Although our playing on the greens was only a short while since Neal informed me that the golf course is "not a park!" Apparently he has to run off trespassers who play on the course and didn't want to be a hypocrite. But,it was a beautiful day and just perfect for riding around on the golf cart with the wind blowing through our hair! The golf course looked great...good work, Neal!

Such a funny look!

Easter Weekend

Cami had a great Easter weekend! We started off the weekend by going shopping at Toys R Us and getting her this really cool ride-in car for only $15 - it was on sale plus we used a gift card we received for buying an obscene amount of diapers! She absolutely loves riding in her new hot rod, she even puts her hands up on the steering wheel.

It is such a cute and fun car. I highly recommend it to everyone that has a youngster!

Sorry, Neal. I just had to add this picture of you! He doesn't look too thrilled to be wearing Cami's bow on his hat, but I though it was adorable! Look at his big blue eyes, this is where Cam gets them from!

If you look closely you can see the purple bruise on her face from when she fell backwards and her grocery cart fell on her face. This weekend has been full on bumps, bruises, and scrapes for her. But this one left the worst mark. Poor baby!

Refusing to take the egg out of her mouth so I can take a decent picture of her.

On Saturday night Grammy and Papaw came over to cook out. She enjoyed showing off her new toys - the swing and the car! She also gave them a short 10 second rule to hold her, then she squirmed and wiggled to get out of their arms. She had important business, and crawling, to tend to!

Easter morning! Crawling over to her very first Easter basket...so exciting :)

Sorry mom, not gonna smile!

She went through all of her goodies very quickly and then came to the Easter grass and stopped. She thought she had found the jack pot! Don't worry, though, we took it away right after I took this picture of her. It's a huge chocking hazard. That crazy looking thing in her lap is a cow fish for the bath tub that I found on sale at Wal-Mart - it even moos under water :)

Easter Pic's

Cameron had Easter pictures taken with her cousin, Troy a few weeks ago. It was very hard trying to get them to smile -they are both super serious babies! So these are the best ones of the bunch. Notice not a single smile in any of them :( They are still sweet, though!

The photographer talked me into this silly bunny ear picture. I think Kelley, my sister-in-law, was persuaded into buying the bunny ear of Troy, too. We are such suckers!

To the Park

We took a trip today to our favorite local park. Cameron got an up close view of geese and ducks as they came up out of the water so we could feed them pieces of bread. I fed the ducks while Cami watched. She didn't seem bothered or startled by the big geese getting within inches and HISSING at us as they begged for more bread. Even I was a little intimidated by their demanding nature. But little Cami is proving to be a very easy going baby as she takes everything in stride and doesn't get rattled easily.

After we fed the ducks Neal thought it would be funny to take Molly off the leash (a big park no-no) and let her go after the ducks and geese. The poor ducks did not like it one bit. They were all happy and relaxed enjoying their yummy bread and then here comes a wild and crazy dog tearing after them. Poor ducks!
