The Rieves Family: 2009

Saturday, November 14, 2009

Camden loves to dance. He loves anything that plays music. He always has. He just got some new moves and I got it on video. I hope you enjoy.

We went on vacation in October to Orange Beach with MawMaw, PawPaw, Aunt Robin, Danny Lane and my cousins, Mackenzie and Madison. Camden did awesome in the car going down and coming home. We had so much fun. Camden's favorite part was the water slide in the indoor pool. It was a couple of the adults favorite part too. It was very breezy at the beach, but we still had a good time. I didn't get to ride the lazy river, but Rick, PawPaw and Mackenzie did. Brave souls!! The water was like ice water. We had such a nice condo. Camden had a great time going in the girl's room and getting in their stuff. His biggest thing was shutting himself in the bathrooms.

I am such a bad blogger. I haven't updated this in so long. Well, we will start with his birthday. Camden had a great birthday party. We now know that 30 people will fit in our house. It was so nice to have all of our family here for his 1st birthday. He got alot of great presents. It looked like a toy store blew up in our house. He really enjoyed his cake until about 2am when he woke up screaming with a tummy ache. Sugar bad!

Okay, so once again I am behind on posting pictures. Camden is almost walking now, so he keeps me really busy. He just got 2 new teeth. He is talking alot now. You can't really understand it. He says momma, dada and he waves bye and says dada. We are working on the byebye. He makes the funniest faces. This is one of many. I can't believe that he is almost a year old. This year really flew by. He has been the best baby. He sleeps about 9-10 hours a night. He entertains himself. Out of all of his toys, he chooses to climb in his portable changing table or pat the Peyton Manning poster in the bonus room. He loves taking a bath so we knew he would love playing in the pool.

Okay, so it has been a really long time since I have put any pictures on here. Someone is keeping me really busy. We had a great Easter. We had Camden dedicated at Nana and PaPa J's church. We had to visit the rest of the family too. Mawmaw and Pawpaw had brunch and got Camden a cute bunny that made noises. We played him so much he died. Mother's Day was nice. We went to a cookout at my Aunt and Uncle's house. He is crawling everywhere and pulling up on anything. He can cruise from toy to toy. This makes Rick nervous. He has 4 teeth. I can't believe he is almost 10 months old. At his 9 month check up he was: 22lbs. 14oz. and 30 3/4 inches long. He finally said MaMa even though he only says it when he fusses. He loves to say DaDa. He is starting to eat people food. It is so funny to watch him take his first bite. He always makes the funniest face. He loves strawberries. Actually, there is not a whole lot that he doesn't like. He is so precious. We had his 9 month pictures done. They didn't seem to go as well as his 6 month. We are waiting to get the pictures back.

Camden got his first haircut on May 9th. I waited as long as I could before cutting his hair. Everyone was giving me such a hard time about how long his hair was getting. We went to Snip-Its over by the mall. As you can tell, Camden didn't mind. I am still getting grief about how I should've had more cut. He looked so cute sitting in the little chair.

At Camden's 6 month appointment, he weighed 20lbs. 8oz. and was 281/2" long. Dr. White said he had a growth spurt. He loves his vegetables. His favorite right now are Peas. I haven't found anything yet that he doesn't like.

Since Camden has learned to roll over, this is how we find him all hours of the night. He can't figure out how to roll back over so Rick and I are having to get up and turn him over.

The laundry is always full of washcloths. While I bathe him with one, he plays with another.
