Almost 16 Months

We continue to teethe like crazy in this house. The canine teeth he was working on back at Thanksgiving are still not all the way through...he's up to 8 right now that he is for sure working on. You can see them all just barely ready to poke through the gums. Poor little guy. You really wouldn't notice until night when he has times he wakes up several times crying. Hopefully they come in soon. He has 8 right now so he is trying to double his number of teeth all at once. I swear this kid never gets just one at a time.


He is also starting to talk a little clearer and try new words. The other day at daycare he was apparently in his little pack & play and just woke up from a nap. A parent arrived and rang the door bell. Karla said Cameron pointed and said "Door". Some of his other random words have been lunch, puppy, and balloon. We are working on animal sounds, too. He is so funny trying to copy me on the sound a sheep makes. He sticks his little tongue out and goes "ah ah ah". I want it on video...we'll see. His word of choice though, and the one that still comes through clearest is crackers. Don't ask me why he picked such a hard word to master first. He is also finally nodding his head yes when we ask him if he wants something.


Still absolutely adores his books! Always the same ones even though he has a huge stack. Other favorite toys these days are his blocks & big legos. He loves to have us build towers so he can knock them down. Then he will put his legos together and take them back apart...it entertains him for a while.


Now that he's mastered walking, he's getting really close to mastering running! Apparently at daycare he is starting to climb on everything. He hasn't started that at home yet. Although he is loving the stairs more than ever. Last weekend I was switching the laundry. He was by my side when I started...30 seconds later he was gone. Nowhere to be found so I called his name and heard a little giggle. He had climbed up to the top of the stairs and was standing at the baby gate. Now it's turning into a game. I guess we are going to need one at the bottom of the stairs now too.


So most of the kids at daycare are just a little older than Cameron (by 3-6 mos). David said a couple of days ago they were all jumping in the morning when Cameron was dropped off. He is trying to learn from them because that same night I told David he was trying so hard to jump when I got him home. He continues to try to figure it out and it's so darn funny!

Here is some Cameron & Daddy time. He loves to be tickled!

Cameron still had David's ear muffs out from our trip to Brian Head. He usually doesn't let us leave anything on his head. However, he really got a kick out of wearing these. We put them on him and he left them there...just went about his business and played.
