Sunday snapshots
This weekend I stole a few hours to do some shopping for Cameron. It is so much more fun to shop for her than myself! Kohl's was having a great sale with some stuff up to 70% off for kids. I hadn't even been planning to go into the store (isn't that always the way?) but I had something to return and Babies 'R Us was very lacking in fleece PJs and socks.
As of today all of Cameron's 9 month clothing has been put away and she's been moved into her 12 month clothes. I love it because it means all new outfits for me to enjoy. Cameron could care less, of course...the pants are still a bit long but she can still crawl around with no problem.
Yes, she really is adorable, isn't she? No, I'm not biased! We've had to start putting clips in her hair to keep it out of her eyes. It usually only lasts an hour or two before falling out. But at least she doesn't pull it out herself.
Our friends, Pat and Nikki, sent along this adorable Adidas outfit. Cameron is ready for her professional sports career to start! As you can see, the squinty look has become a favorite of Cameron's when the camera is whipped out. She's quite the ham.DH and I try to present a lot of options for finger foods but Cameron always prefers her carbs. I can put a new kind of food in front of her and she will only pop it in her mouth if it is carb related. Otherwise it takes 6-7 introductions for a new food before she puts it in her mouth to try it. Then it is a 50/50 chance if Cameron will actually like it.
Despite her pickiness with finger food Cameron has always been fascinated with Charlie's food. One day, we let her indulge herself. Watch and enjoy!
I am an English major (well, really Creative Writing) who reformed with an MBA and started working in Technology for BigFinance. Along the way I moved from Boston to Charlotte, got married to a Yankee fan, and joined the world of home ownership. We were joined on 3/24/09 by Cameron Patricia who is rapidly teaching us to become parents. My interests include watching tons of TV (hey, I'm a child of the 80s), reading as many fantasy books as I can, lavishing attention on my super cute dog and husband (aka DH), and the occassional puttering in the garden.

Oh my god, that's hilarious!! Go you for not being so anal that you wouldn't let her try that.
And remember next time you're out shopping for Cameron, make sure to treat yourself to a little something so you can feel cute, too!
I love that adidas outfit!!!
Be careful - DS1 still asks for dog treats to eat (and he doesn't like to eat human food!)
