Where's Camden?

Where could Camden be?

Boo!

This obviously didn't get old

Dip and Make Believe

Camden has become a fan of dip, or in his words "pip". His favorite is Ranch (just like his daddy), but he will try almost anything that we call dip.

Favorite snack with "pip"...pretzels!

Forget the pretzels, just give me the dip!

He has also been thinking outside the box lately, as he has turned his basketball hoop into a boat of sorts. He did this all on his own...tipped it over and started riding it one day. Now he even scoots along on it from room to room and I've started singing "Row, Row, Row Your Boat" which he likes.

Here he is boating from the family room to the toy room

Even goes down the steps

Me and my makeshift boat!

We had a picnic lunch at Grandpa and Grandma Meyers the other day and I got a couple cute shots.

Over the weekend...

I spent some time with cousin Landon on the golf cart and hauled around ears of corn that were being picked...

Figuring out how to keep control of the wheel while pushing on the gas

I hung out with Cousins Garrett, Nicolas, Brielle, Jack, Will and Grace

I went to the zoo and took my first pony ride. I was a little nervous at first, but was liking it by the end

I went to the park and my latest love is the tractor...or anything that I can steer

Here I am trying to get out

I played with a sprinkler on the deck and thought it was really fun to spray Daddy!

Mixing things up...

is fun to do, and that is exactly what we did! We had our daddy time Tuesday evening and on Wednesday morning Camden and I took off for Indy. We spent a couple days and nights with Uncle Jake, Aunt Nae and Brielle. We had a lot of fun and having a friend to play with makes mommy's life easier too!

Playing hide and seek in the cabinets

Floating on land

Brielle's hoop is pretty tall, so we rigged it up over the couch and the kids loved it!

Slam Dunk!

Worn out from dunking

There is a park/splash pad nearby so we took the kids there one day. It was really cool, but neither of them were too thrilled with the water part.

Finally! A slide made for climbing up! Just what I need!

Fort Fun!!!

And no, I don't mean Fort Wayne. I mean actual forts built with cushions, blankets and anything else you can find. Luke, Camden and I went to Uncle Paul and Aunt Cheri's on Saturday night for dinner and to play with the kids. David and Elijah had built some great forts and we all got to play in them. I look forward to our fort building days. :)

David...so proud of his private space

"Wow! This fort stuff is FUN!"

Trampoline Fun!

Today my mom and I took Brielle and Camden over to Uncle Justin, Aunt Jess and cousin Jaxson's house to play on the trampoline. This was Camden's first time on a "big" trampoline and he seriously loved it! I had a hard time catching pictures of him actually jumping, however he did enjoy that part too. Best of all though was the bag of colored cotton balls that Jaxson let us play with. Camden played with them forever...in fact, I'm probably heading to the craft store tomorrow!

Hi mommy!

Just can't get enough!

Searching for my favorite color

This one matches great!

Slam dunking the balloons

Throwing the balloon up...

and waiting on it to come back down!
