What a mess ~ 11-24-10

Usually Cameron is pretty organized when I ask him to get the hangars to help hang up his clothes. Not this day but we quickly got them back in order.

There he goes ~ 11-24-10

I thought the activity centers were pretty stable. Of course that is the case UNLESS a big brother decides to come over and PUSH the activity center over. Braydon came about an inch from hitting his head on the way down on the wood picnic bench. After my chat with Cameron it's safe to say he won't do that again. Braydon came out unscathed other than a little shook up.

In the Lead ~ 11-21-10

Maybe the only time I was in the lead during fantasy football. Of course the week wasn't over but it was sure nice to see my name first!

Adventure to the Park ~ 11-21-10

Big to Little...Cameron and I decided to go for a walk. He came out of the house with his big bicycle. But after only a few minutes of riding decided he might have better luck with his smaller bicycle. Smart boy!

Braydon enjoying the walk.










Sliiiiiiiding down.

Being WAY more brave than I thought he would be.



Being a monkey.












Wheeeeeee











Cameron got tired of riding and pushing his bicycle. Good idea.











We enjoyed a yummy popsicle when we got home.

Spiderman as bribery ~ 11-21-10

Ok, so I've prided myself on not using bribery thus far in potty training Cameron, but let's face it cleaning up #1 is MUCH different than #2. So, I made a "deal" with Cameron that if he went #2 in the potty rather than in his pants he could have a Spiderman toothbrush. Hey, at least it's not candy, right? Let''s just say that it did not take more than a day to accomplish this goal. Perhaps I should have set a long term goal. It might have saved me quite as bit of nose holding!

Where does he get these ideas? ~ 11-20-10

Do you know?

In the walker ~ 11-20-10

Braydon explored in his walker today. He kind of just sits there and is not sure what to do. He does move a little, backwards.

Getting big ~ 11-20-10

It's hard to believe how fast kids grow. I'm amazed how great Cameron is with Braydon...most of the time.



And yes Cameron has on socks with his sandals. Surely, I didn't let him leave the house with those on!?!

Shoes, what are those? ~ 11-20-10

We were getting out of the house for some shopping so Braydon wore his shoes. Aren't they cute?

N is for noodle ~ 11-19-10

Showing off his noodle masterpiece

Mud, Bugs, Creepy crawlies... ~ 11-19-10

Ok, well I didn't see any of those things but I'm sure it's a matter of time even with Cameron who is particular about what he picks up and gets into. For now it's JUST taking leaves off the bushes outside and toting them around. At least its just leaves and it's not something really gross that was left in his pocket... He did put the on a wipe for some reason. I guess to keep the counter clean. :)

Mr. Personality ~ 11-17-10

Here's Braydon with his personality really starting to shine through. He's already taking after his Daddy.

Tree lighting at the Outlet Mall ~ 11-13-10

Cameron, Braydon, and I had our friends Jessica and Alexis. We had lunch, the kids played, and then we went to the Outlet Mall for the Christmas Tree Lighting. It was a fun time by all with hot chocolate, sweets, music and dancing by the Disney radio station, and pictures by the giant Christmas Tree.
Getting excited about seeing lights.







Cameron ready to show his baby brother the HUGE Christmas Tree.










Dancing to Disney Radio.

Baby brothers socks ~ 11-4-10

Braydon wore his football socks for Sunday football. After they came out of the dryer Cameron gave them a try. Let's just say they didn't fit very well.

Halloween ~ 10-31-11

Cameron and Daddy carving the pumpkin.










This was Cameron's first year to actually go trick-or-treating. We went to Nana and Papa's for our usual Sunday relaxing and celebrated Nana's birthday.



Cameron dressed up in his baseball jersey and we only went to about 4 houses after taking pictures in front of Nana and Papa's display.
By his pumpkin that he and Daddy carved.



Cameron's first house.










Getting candy.


And...

the

ride

home.

Up at 6:00 makes lunch at 9:15, right? ~ 10-30-10

My Pumpkin ~ 10-30-10

Too bad Braydon didn't have on orange or he could have been my very own little pumpkin.

Halloween all around ~ 10-29-10

Cameron received a great Halloween gift bag from Aunt Christa and Uncle Matthew. He still tries to carry his snake to school.




Cameron received a mummy gift bag of goodies and book from his teacher, Mrs. S.






He made some e VERY cute pictures of a cat and a bat made from his hands.









And of course a goody bag of sweets.
