Cameron is starting to get a little bit mobile these days. Our friend adds a little twist to his movement though...he crawls backwards. I don't know why, but he just hasn't figured out how to get his big legs under him and get moving forward, and rather just scoots backwards. He gets frustrated because he finds himself getting farther and farther from whatever he's trying to get to. (Even more frustrating, he'll back himself under the couch or under the Pack n' Play.)
Hmmm, I'd really like this binky and soccer ball...
...wait a minute!
Why am I back here now?
Because of his big, cute thighs, Cameron was never really able to comfortably sit in his bumbo seat. He would sit in it for a few minutes but then get mad. As I'd pull him out of it, the bumbo seat would be stuck to him because his thighs were so chunky. Well, I tried to put him in it the other day and it was officially a no go! His thighs couldn't even pretend to fit in the holes any longer...no more bumbo. :(
Cameron is very fascinated by the whole process of eating solids. He loves squishing the food between his fingers and wiping it across the highchair tray. The other day I went to go grab a paper towel and he stretched forward far enough to get a hold of the spoon and bowl. Let's just say he was in green bean heaven! He had the bowl in the one hand, and the spoon in the other, and was clapping them together and happily waving them above his head. He was very proud of himself.
More fun with that silly dog...
Josh's mom and sister came down on Friday evening, as they were driving through Charlotte on their way to Hilton Head. It was great to have dinner all together!

I took so many pictures at the restaurant (and afterward), but with 6 kids all together, it was tough to get any usable photos. After dinner we went over to Mom's apartment, because ours is stuffed to the gills with baby stuff.
All 6 cousins!

On July 4th we went to Dad and Donna's to hang out for the day. We had a great time hanging out at the pool, riding in the golf cart, and Cameron's favorite...just "walking" around the house.

After dinner, we raced home to try and beat the big storm that was rolling in because my car windows (back in Charlotte) were not rolled up all the way. Unfortunately, it started pouring on our way home, with tons of thunder and lightening, so it was a bit of a treacherous ride. But shortly after we got home, there was a beautiful rainbow across the sky.
