Quality Time

Things have been extremely busy this month and there is no end in site. This weekend, we tried to enjoy quality time with the kids. Cameron & Gracie test drove Cameron's Christmas present! I have to say, it was a great hit. This is the coolest design, he sits in a chair that allows him to go around the excersaucer instead of sitting right in the middle. It's great, as Gracie was dancing (checkout her hip tights), Cameron went round and round in circles trying to catch her. It keeps them entertained for a good while.




























When Gracie was a baby, I used to hold her upside down and tickle her. Of course, this drives Kenny crazy, but she loved it. Cameron seems to enjoy it just as much as Gracie did.

















Gracie at 7 months......


















In celebration of Cameron's tooth, I gave him a piece of Zwieback toast. I sat him in his high chair (former owner - Gracie) just as we did when Gracie got her first tooth. As you can see, he enjoyed his toast very much!



























Needless to say, he made a bit of a mess after his toast, so we headed to the bath. This is a very special time for both of them. I enjoy watching them bond with each other. Cameron started fussing when he got water in his eyes and Gracie leaned over and said "I'm right here brother". I know they will have a close relationship with each other as I do with my sisters.





























When 8:00 p.m. rolls around, Cameron is OUT. He looks like he's drunk -

Cameron's First Tooth!

This morning Cameron was extremely fussy. He woke up very early and was not a happy camper. I tried everything to make him happy, a bottle, rice cereal, playing, carrying him around, tylenol, etc. I was at my wits end when we decided to try rub his gums with little teethers. Lord and behold, we felt his first tooth had broken through. I don't like to use the little teethers very much, but that really did offer him a lot of relief!
