I took this video a few weeks ago of Camden watching Pearl in the sprinklers. I love his laugh. I just can't get enough, so I quickly busted out my iPhone so I could take this video while he was giving this precious giggle.
This video is from Easter. Little C had a full on giggling fit every time Husband and his brother would kick the ball. He's carrying around another family member's empty soda bottle but with the way Camden is giggling and walking around deliriously you'd think he just chugged the entire thing himself. But I promise he didn't! No judgies!
In other randomness...
Camden is huge. He's getting so big and so heavy and is learning so fast. But despite all that? He stopped last night and gave me the best cuddles. It had been a while too! He crawled onto my lap facing me, and laid his head down on his chest. It was so sweet! I like to know that my little ball of toddler fury still needs me!
Camden was invited to a birthday party this past weekend. It was held at Bounce U, somewhere we had never been. It was a late party at 730p which is normally bedtime, so to prepare we kept him up late in the afternoon so he could have a late nap. Turns out, it was WELL worth it. Camden LOVED the place. We stuck him in some bounce houses and let him bounce and run around, play with the air guns, climb over things and go down the slides.
{he loved it! Can you tell?}
{tired babies}
{the birthday girl!}
The party was split into two rooms. You spent the first thirty minutes in the first room, and the second 30 minutes in the other room. The second room and a HUGE slide, and that was by far Camden's favorite thing. We would slide down it with him, and he'd get to the bottom and immediately start signing "more" nonstop. He'd say it too, "mo mo mo". So up again we went. Over and over. He would grin at the bottom each time! Towards the end we decided to just drop him down on his own. Homeboy LOVED going by himself. He laughed and grinned and would hop up and ask for "mo".
Here's a video of us letting him slide down on his own. He thought it was hilarious.
We had the same problem leaving the slide that we had leaving the pool. Kid started kicking and crying, arms flailing while asking for 'mo'. We told him repeatedly to "wave bye" and "all done" but that didn't satisfy him. Apparently, the late nap did the trick. I think he could have stayed up all night going down the slide.
The last thirty minutes of the party were spent in the party room with the birthday girl, eating cake and ice cream and opening presents. It was nearing 9 so we cut out early as it was in Camden's best interest.
It was a blast of a party, and I can't wait to take Camden back there again to a free bounce activity of some sort.
It's no secret that Camden's favorite thing is Bubbles. He asks for them when he wakes up, he asks for them before bed, he asks for them when Chris comes home. As soon as he sees Chris' car pulling up in the drive, He says "Da-da" and then repeats "Buh-buhls", over and over until we finally get the point.
This is a video of bubbles. Please excuse Pearl as one of her favorite things happens to be bubbles. You can see her chasing them in the video. You will also notice that Camden can successfully blow his own bubbles. I suppose teaching him how to blow a whistle toy paid off - he can also blow his nose! Also he says "Buh-Buhl" right off the bat - so you'll have to catch it rather quickly!
My favorite time of the day is roughly about 330. That's the day when my work day is ending and I get to go pick up little man from daycare. It is by FAR my favorite time, and that's mostly because of the way I get greeted in the afternoons.
Usually he sees me, and smiles and runs over to me. every. single. day. I will be so sad when this ends one day! Lately in the mornings he just waves and smiles as I leave instead of chasing me out the door crying, so I had to take a video of what I see in the afternoons just so I'll have that reminder. (I feel like this may come to an end, sooner rather than later!)
This particular day, I decided to have my video recording on and just happened to catch this as I walked in. Ironically, I also was able to catch him kissing himself in the mirror, so I think he was shocked that I appeared as he was giving his reflection some loving. :)
I apologize for the not so good picture, it's the best my iPhone had that day! Isn't he a cutie though?
This is what the poor dog deals with on a daily basis. She's so patient! She is just relaxing and chewing on her lion and the ball of fury known as the Toddler has a different idea!
She's such a good dog. I'll have to take a picture of them playing together, cause they are adorable!
I think Camden was laughing at Chris talking to him in a high pitched voice. Whatever the case, he was awfully giggly and we caught it on video!! :)
((ps- I am still learning how to upload and I am unsure why the resolution uploaded so low. You can change the resolution down at the right corner and that makes it a little better...))
