Grandma and Grandpa

Mom and Dad arrived on Thursday and Gramps and Nana delivered Camden to them. We took Camden shopping on Friday and went down to the Landing to check out some Gator Bowl activities. We also stayed home to smoke a little hookah and just enjoy Camden. Grandpa and Grandma are leaving today but hopefully they'll be back soon.

See you next year, Santa!

Camden had a wonderful first Christmas! Kevin's family came in on Saturday and stayed through Thursday. Afterwards, my mom and dad came in on Thursday and stayed through today. So between his two set of grandparents, Camden was spoiled rotten!! It was so wonderful seeing all the family again and we just had such a relaxing and fun time hanging out, eating, playing games, opening presents, playing with our gifts, and going to the candlelight service at Church. Cousin Jake showed us all his growing collection of words and phrases and Maddie showed off her unique dancing skills. Aunt Ashley brought her friend Bob over and he was a fun guy. Kevin, Jon, Sam and Dad2 went to the Jags/Pats game and grumbled together about the fact that none of them had made the fantasy football playoffs this year. We all watched the Noles kick butt in the prestigious Emerald Bowl (awesome win!). Here's a few pics of our great weekend:

Update

Actually, the reason Camden was feeling so rough was he had an ear infection. We finally took him to the Dr. the Friday before Christmas and he was given an antibiotic which has pretty much knocked it out and Cam's feeling a lot better now!

All I want for Christmas is my 4 front teeth...

Forgot to mention...Camden must have asked Santa for some more teeth, because he now has four teeth!! The 3rd came in about 2 weeks ago and the 4th just kind of snuck in here recently. I think all this sudden teeth activity is causing him to feel kinda rough. He missed about 2 days of school this week because of fevers and some vomitting. But the Motirn and some extra down time has helped. Right now, he's fever's gone and he's his normal sunny self!

Christmas is coming!

Hey all, sorry it's been so long--we've been busy!!! Since our last post, Daddy has hooked up some Christmas lights to Camden's stroller, made his famous pumpkin bread, Camden has been to see a live nativity and took a stroller ride down to the Avondale lumineria, Mommy has made cookies and cleaned house and washed bottles. And we finished all our Christmas cards this week. We are also getting ready for Kevin's family to come in this weekend. We're so excited! Nana, Gramps and Uncle Jon will arrive on Sat. and not sure when Aunt Ashley will. But we plan on having lots of fun! We all draw names and swap gifts with each other. We also plan on going to the Christmas Eve candlelight service at our Church and the boys might go see the Jags play the Patriots. We also plan on having Grandma and Grandpa over after Christmas so Camden is twice as spoiled! I'll write more soon. I hope all of you have a great Christmas.

Getting ready for Christmas

This weekend, we've been working to get the house and Camden ready for Christmas. We picked out a great tree, which Camden slept through. But he did wake up in time to supervise as Daddy strung up the outdoor lights. Camden also went to the mall---er, North Pole to visit with Santa. The picture turned out great!
