Busy Little Man

Busy Weekend At Nana's

First Gaze Into the Ocean

Look at that cool flying kite!



But, I don't wanna pet the bunny!




Chillin' at first picnic


We have had a very busy May. Cameron had his first official picnic in the park, where we met many other adoptive families in the area. He had his first look and feel of the ocean, saw his first flying kite, and his first petting zoo (He could not have cared less about petting the baby bunnies and kitties).

He seemed to enjoy the beach immensely. (Maybe I will be able to talk him into being a marine biologist.) He even didn't mind putting his feet in the sand. This was surprising since he doesn't like to put his feet in grass at all. He like the water until the wave splashed too far up onto his torso. This was cold and he did not like it. But he really seemed to love being there. So much to see!

Cameron has made amazing progress over the past 6 months since we have been home. He is crawling at high speed now. He's getting better at walking while holding my hands and can stand without assistance for a nanosecond. He is finger feeding better and will eat almost anything you put in front of him. He doesn't seem to like tomatoes (that's my boy!) and loves grilled cheese sandwiches. He is using a sippy cup although still needs some assistance. My main challenge currently is getting him to drink cold beverages. He wants his drinks warm or room temperature at a minimum. His hair and teeth are taking their sweet time coming in. He definitely has more hair now but it is still not very thick yet. And it's looking redder by the day. He still has 4 teeth although 2 more top teeth are right on the verge of coming in.

He definitely has a mind of his own and I'm pretty sure I'll be dealing with a bit of a temper as he gets older. Must be the red hair! But, he is still pretty happy, laughs alot, and is jabbering up a storm (still working on Mama with no luck so far). He is a great sleeper most of the time. He plays hard and sleeps hard. The more mobile he gets the more he wants to explore, so he keeps himself pretty busy (and me too!).

What a WONDERFUL update! Cameron looks so great and it is so excellent that he is progressing so well. First kite and picnic? FUN!!! Thinking of you both!
