Walking...

Cameron took his first real sturdy steps about a month ago, and has really started to master the use of those legs since his first birthday. He is all over the place now and there is no stopping him, he is a boy on a mission!
I have been hoping that all of this walking would really tire him out, and maybe he'd start sleeping through the night. No luck on that one yet, but I am not losing hope!

Rick should be home in about three weeks now, just in time for Cam to be able to walk to him as he gets off the plane! I can't believe how much my little guy has grown and changed in the last year, and I am sure that Rick will be amazed when he finally gets to see him in person too!

Cam's First Birthday!

Cameron is ONE!!! I can't believe a full year has passed since he was born, it seems like I was at Mercy hospital looking at his beautiful face for the first time only days ago.

We had his Birthday party on Sunday He was surrounded by tons of great friends and family and got a little spoiled in the gift department :) It was a beautiful day, warm and sunny, and we had a ton of great food! The only thing that was missing was his Daddy, but we did get to talk to him online for a couple hours and got to see him through the web camera!!! We saved Rick a piece of the great cake my mom made him, and put it in the freezer so he can have it when he gets home from Iraq.
Cam had some vegan cake, since he is allergic to all things dairy, it was pretty darn good if I do say so myself! He loved it and made a real mess with it!
I have enjoyed every second of being Cam's mommy, and can't wait to see how much he will grow and change in the next year!!!
