Cam's 18 month Stats

Height: 33.1 inches (75%)
Height: 24.15 lbs (35%)
Head: 19 inches (70%)


My little baby is now 18 months and getting so big. He now goes to nursery at church and could care less if we leave. He loves it. Although when we pick him up he is happy to see us. Not because he wants to be with us, but that we will take him home and put him in bed.

One of Cameron's favorite things to do is bug Brooklynn. He is a big tease and always being silly. He also loves doing whatever Brooklynn does. When we say bedtime prayers we always do it in his room (since he goes to bed first). So we go in his room read a couple stories and then say a prayer. For bedtime prayers Brooklynn always lays on the floor and folds her arms over her eyes, Cam copies her. A few times I have caught him playing and he will just lay down and get in his laying down prayer position and start saying a prayer to himself. (In his own little babbling language.) It is so cute.

Cameron always has to have a little bowl of dry cereal before bedtime. If I forget, he reminds me. Cam really loves to eat anything and everything all day long.

He is a big helper and loves to help me clean. He will use the broom, vacuum and even go get out a bunch of wipes and start washing the walls. (just like his sis.)

Cameron doesn't really have a favorite toy. Not that he has too many favorites, because he doesn't really like toys. He prefers remote controls, any type of real phone, video game controllers, computer keyboard or mouse. Really anything that he is not suppose to play with.

My boy is very sweet and always giving hugs and kisses. If he has to say sorry he is ready to give a big hug and kiss. If Brooklynn hurts him and I tell her to tell him sorry, he stops crying and goes to her and gives her a hug and kiss first. What a loving boy I have.

Cam has so many other cute fun characteristics (way too many to name). I love him so much and am so thankful that he is part of our family. I love his personality and craziness he brings to our home. He sure is a busy boy and keeps me after him all day long, but wouldn't change it for the world.

Floors


Here is our new flooring. It was a lot of hard work that Ryan, his dad and brother Eric put in. Thanks guys. I love it so much and it looks great. What a great husband to do all this for our house.


I am so glad to have nice floor to enjoy. It goes from our front entry way back to our dining and kitchen. Next is new carpet in our living room.

Easter

We had a great Easter. We were able to spend the most of the morning home together watching Conference. Although I enjoy going to church in new Easter clothes, it was nice just being home as a family. Especially when Brooklynn loves conference and she acctually listens and even knows some of the Apostle's names.

At the Conference break we went to my mom's house for our Annual Adult and Kids Easter Egg hunt. As usual I got the least amount of eggs. (I am not very competitive with that kind of stuff) It has always been between Ryan, Josh and Terra. Jake and Johana do well but have never won. But Johana is getting up there now. She gets a little wild with everyone else. Ryan won first place and Johana came in second by only two eggs. Jake was really sick and he stayed in his room so Camille didn't come either. My grandpa took over for Jake and Brooklynn looked for Camille's eggs. Grandpa got half of what I got. Which is pretty good for a 90 year old. Brooklynn on the other hand only got Camille 4. We had fun and it is always fun to see what we get. I got mostly money and candy, but I did score a couple movies and movie tickets. Ryan got a couple gift cards and a movie and money too.

Afterwards we ate lunch and got to watch Conference again. Then we headed over to the Oldroyd's for a nice dinner and had the kids do their Easter Egg hunt. What a great Easter.



Here are the kids Easter baskets. Brooklynn found hers in the first place she looked and then she started looking for Cameron's in the second place she looked. Awesome searcher.


My mom got a little too creative making Easter Eggs this year. It was funny once you saw the cracked egg and read all the sayings.


Berkie running around looking for eggs at the Dennis egg hunt.


Cam didn't do so well. Every time he got an egg he took it out of his basket and threw it back. What a silly boy.


Berkie giving her cousin Caleb a little help with some eggs.


All four Dennis grandkids together. It was hard to get a picture. Cameron and Zack just don't sit still for long.


We then did our annual Peep wars. The pink one is mine and the other is Johana's. You put it in the microwave and see which one stabs the other. Johana's was already leaning the opposite direction.


Which helped mine win. Wahoo! Overall Josh's won the grand prize.


Oldroyd kids not so patiently waiting for our Easter egg hunt.


Brooklynn searching for some eggs in the doll house.


Connor found the gold egg.(or at least half a gold egg) It was the only egg with money in it and he got $4.
