Here's my cute Cam coming to inspect the camera he loves so much.

Here's my cute Cam incredibly mad after I took it out of his mouth where I can only assume he was inspecting it.

Here is my cute Cam getting tickled so he would cheer up. All of this took about 5 seconds.

Brothers

We can't wait to go outside for fun, but until then, we'll have some good times inside. Here they are playing together. That's what best friends do! :-)

Messing Around

Family meal times have been full of dancing, smearing, laughing, and some eating. Supper time is Cam's favorite time of the day...besides mornings, mid mornings, afternoons and after meals. He's just a really happy kid. He's now ten months old. He has graduated from army crawl to real crawling so we've had to apply the baby gates. He's pulling himself up to kneeling and he can say "Mama", "Da Da", "Dog", "That", and we think he's saying "thank you" after you give him something. He can wave bye bye and hello.

Peek is his favorite game which he instigates. When he closes his eyes you have to say "Where is Camden?" and then he'll appear to you by opening his eyes and swinging his head around. He also loves any ball. He gets just as exciting throwing a football as he does when you put him in his highchair. It's pretty entertaining.

Caelan has finished his first week as a "darling duckling" at pre school. He loves it. He has learned so much already. Miss Anne, his teacher, gave him the job of opening doors for others and he takes that very serious. He is so tired by the time he comes home. He does miss Snooky, but loves being around kids his age.

First Day of Pre School

This was a pretty hard day for mommy and daddy! Caelan went to his first day of pre school. Green is his "power" color, so he needed that. Also, he took all of his school supplies, a new car to sleep with and his Thomas blanket (thanks T). He did a great job today. He was so tired and hungry when he got home. We asked him if he wanted to go back, and he thought it would be a good idea. Just today, he showed us two new words in sign language and what we think is part of a new song.

Camden missed him so much. When Cam and I sat next to Caelan, he started kissing him all over his face, head and arms. Caelan was a good sport. It was the cutest scene. Here's Cam on his new airplane. He can hold himself up really well on it.

Cuteness

Here are some pictures from the playdate with Ellie and Brynn. We had so much fun. Ellie and Caelan are playing with a new Christmas present of Ellie's. Camden tasted all of Brynn's toys. They were all so cute and fun. It was a good day.

SANTA!

Well, after all of the presents from relatives and after Santa came to Grawa and Papa's Caelan did not expect him to come to our house. However, he did come! All he wanted from Santa was a "Lellow train and a Lellow truck" he got them! Some of the pictures are Caelan following Santa's trail of glitter to the fireplace where he left his hat behind. (Thanks to Shannon and friends next door who took care of our puppies over night!) Other pictures are them enjoying some of the presents. The giant red tube, the magnet alphabet and Cam with his Mickey Mouse airplane. They had a great Christmas and are extremely spoiled with love and presents.

Christmas with Cousins

Camden was so tired by the time we arrived at Rolynne's house. This is him meeting Kara and Katie for the first time. As you can see, it took him no time to snuggle up to them. Hopefully, we can get together with them more often!

Christmas at Multiple Houses

Caelan and Grawa made delicious cookies. Notice who was in charge of the green sprinkles! Caelan put quite a few on each cookie. These cookies were mostly made for Santa. When Santa came, he only left a few crumbs and Rudolph ate almost all of the carrots, too. Many of the pictures were taken and Great Grandma and Great Papa Cahill's. There the food is always good, the family is always fun, and snuggles from Great Grandma are always needed! We even got a family picture.

While the Boys were Outside...

Mommy and Camden got to snuggle.

Caelan

On Christmas day, Caelan, Papa, and Daddy enjoyed some outside time. Before that, he tried out his fire truck that Santa brought him.

Caelan's Last Day at Snooky's

Caelan is going to pre-school (which terrifies mommy) and he had to say goodbye to Snooky and his daycare friends. Snooky has helped mommy for three years (since he was two weeks old). Caelan will miss her so much, but he will be back once a week in the summer!
