My little man

I absolutely LOVE this picture! One of Emily's wedding photographers took it and I love how John's holding Cam and I'm trying to fix his tie and Cameron's just chillin. And can we talk about his one little finger that's touching my hand! I cracked up when I saw this! But honestly, this picture says it all about our life! I'm always messing with his hair, clothes and shoes, John's all about the love and making Cameron laugh and Cameron just kicks back and enjoys the ride. I love my 2 main men!

Emily and Jeff's wedding

Emily's good friend Ashley was her photographer for the wedding and she just posted the wedding pics on her blog. I think they are fabulous! Ashley is an awesome photographer! They are stunning!

She also put together this adorable 3 min. slideshow of their wedding and there are some dang cute shots of my lil Cam Bam in there! We're going to have to buy those for sure! Take a look...

Family Fun in Cali

While we were in California, we were able to spend time with John's aunt, uncle and cousins. His Aunt Kath and Uncle Jim are so sweet! We stayed at their lovely home for a few nights while we were there. We also got to see John's cousins who are all married now with families. We had the best time with them! It's such a shame that we live so far apart and can't see them more often! Here are some pics of our fun with the family...

Cameron's first airplane ride

As you all know, we just got back from our trip to California. And I was more than a little anxious taking my 8 month old son on an airplane for SUCH A LONG TRIP. I tried to think of every possible way to make it an enjoyable and painless experience for all. I packed ear plugs for Cameron, new toys, his favorite snacks, a change of clothes, a baby Bjorn (the Infantino version) for walking around the airport, you name it, I packed it. All in all, the plane ride went well. I was a little thrown though during our first flight out there when I went to put the ear plugs in his ears and he threw a fit! He wanted nothing to do with those things! So his ears did pop a little on our first flight- which scared him. But we figured out that as long as he is drinking his bottle or nibbling on a little snack it would help with his ears. After that initial rough start, he was as good as gold. He did great on all the flights! We had a layover in Houston on our way to and from L.A. Each flight was about 2.5 hours. And he was good enough to wait until we got to L.A. to have a diaper blow out, making the change of clothes I brought come in handy!

Here are a few pics of Cameron's first trip to the airport and on the airplane.

Here's Cameron taking a walk with daddy through the Jacksonville airport on the way to our gate. He loved that little Infantino carrier!


On a quick side note, when John bought this carrier and I saw the box it came in, I was like oh, what a cute baby on the cover of the box. He kinda looks like Cameron (except for the hair of coarse) then I looked up at his mommy and I was like whoa! She looks just like ME! Does anyone else think this girl looks like me? Wierd!

Cameron felt like such a big boy when he got his own seat on our connecting flight from Houston to LA. There was no one sitting next to us on that flight so he got his own. Here he is seat belt fastened and all.


A little sip...


And a little nap. I love that he still likes to snuggle with me! Look at his little arm around my neck!


Stay tuned for many more exciting pics from our Cali trip.

Congratulations Emily and Jeff
