And he's become quite the little manipulator!! The other night David was making dinner. He cut up strawberries and had them in a bowl on the counter. Cameron kept pointing and wanting some. David told him to wait until dinner. Cameron walked over, wrapped his arms around David's legs and said "I wuv ooo". When David looked down he pointed at the counter and said "Moe" (for more). He kept doing it until David gave in.
He is learning the words up, down, and out. When he says up he adds M to the front..."Mup". No is still his favorite word. Any question you ask, the answer is no. He has a new found love...strawberries. Calls them "baberrie".
We played out in his pool today. It was the first time this year we've had it out. He really wasn't sure what to think. I had to stand him up in it...he refused for a while to sit or even move. After some coaxing, he started splashing around and had a good time.
Quite the fashionista!! I had to put his crocs on him because the grass was so hot. It was only 87. Guessing there won't be much time and it'll be too hot for him to play outside in our yard. Will need to invest in a big umbrella.
And yet again...the shoes! He loves my shoes. Will strut around in them. As you can see he also carries a purse. David is not too fond of it, but I think it's so funny. The other night we were leaving the house and I said to him "let's go downstairs so we can go bye bye". He ran back and found his purse, threw it over his shoulder and went to the stairs. He held it in his lap the entire car ride. David was relieved he left it in the car when we got out. Now he carries it all over the house and puts his little arm up to keep it on. Thinks he's so important.
This is one of his toy bins. Apparently not just for toys anymore.
This is Cameron chilling out watching Dora the Explorer. His new found obsession. He LOVES her. Walks around saying "Dora...Dora" until we put the movie in. He has even learned a couple of new words from the show - map & backpack. For those of you that know Dora, he sings the map song, "I'm a map, I'm a map, I a map..."
And I am proud to announce, we are officially bottle free!! Since he turned 1 he has been bottle free during the days. However, he refused to give up that bottle to go to bed. It was his security. We even switched to just water in the bottle, but he never lost interest. April 9th was the first night we went without and have remained bottle free ever since.
This time (we tried before and it didn't stick) we gathered up all the bottles and let Cameron throw them into a garbage bag. He then got to throw it in the big garbage bin in the garage. He thought they were gone for good...but I pulled them out and hid them. Anyways, it was a rough couple of nights. Then miraculously the last 2 nights there has been no crying!! He just lays down and goes to sleep. He has even been sleeping through the night entirely!! Loving it.
So the videos this time were too much fun. The first is of Cameron watching David blow bubbles with his gum. This is the first time he's ever really seen it and is totally fascinated. His little tongue starts going and he's trying to figure out how David is doing it. He was saying "balloon" initially whenever he saw the gum.
Then he has this little Backyardigans saxaphone. He has started pretending to blow into it and dance around while he pushes the buttons to make music. It is so funny!

This was one of his favorite X-mas gifts. It is a little dinosaur that roars. Now he roars back at it.
Today, he was having a blast pushing the bucket down the slide...kept saying "Down". Then he'd get a kick out of the fact the bucket slid to the ground. I guess this is the best amusement when the slide was getting to hot for him.
Next weekend we are scheduled to get his 18-month pictures done! Stay tuned.
