Finally!

I think the new title of our blog says it all. The post below has some recent pictures of Cameron. He was 6 months old yesterday. He weighs 17lbs 5 oz and is 27in long. We did find out at his check-up that he has an ear infection! Great! He is pretty good at sitting up on his own. He loves eating his rice cereal and baby food. I will try to be a better blogger in the future.

First trip to the Mountains

Last Saturday we decided to take a day trip to Blowing Rock. It was a beautiful clear day. It was slightly cooler up there than it was here in Lexington. We started with lunch at the Six Pence Pub. One of our favorite places to eat. After lunch we drove up the parkway to check out the views from the top of the mountains. Gosh, it was a beautiful day. We took a couple of pictures and the headed back to town. We decided to stop at Julian Price Park and let Cameron stretch his legs. We happen to have a towel in the car and an umbrella to create some shade. Cameron had a great time playing. I can't wait to go back and let him play in the creek that runs through the park. When my brother and I were younger, we would tie a string to a 20oz soda bottle and float it down the creek. It was simple, but fun. After feeding Cameron at the park we went to the Tanger Outlets for some shopping. This was our real reason to go. I needed some clothes to wear when I go back to work.

Ever wonder why they are called the Blue Ridge Mountains?

We created our own shade at Price Park

Cameron enjoyed the fresh mountain air.

Happy Easter

Happy Bithday Nana!

Saturday we celebrated my Nana's 89th birthday! It was a wonderful day. The entire family was there. I don't have a copy yet of the picture of the entire family, but I do have one of Nana with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

2 Months Old!

My baby is already 2 months old! Where did the time go. This also means that I only have a month left before I go back to work. That will be hard. Anyway, here are Cameron's stats:

Weight: 11lbs 3oz

Height: 23 1/4 in

Just a reminder of his stats at birth:

Weight: 7lbs 7oz

Height: 20 in

The doctor was proud of Cameron's progress. He is lifting and turning his head during tummy time; tracking objects and people when they move; smiling and cooing; and he has even rolled over!

Here are some pictures of what Cameron has been up to for the past month.
