Happy Birthday Cameron!






















Today our little "Cam Bam" (what we like to call him because he likes to makes lots of noise and crash things together) turned ONE! I can't believe it's already been a year, and he has grown and changed so much since we brought him home from the hospital.

Here are some of the things Cameron likes or loves to do:

1) Follows Leah around the house and play with whatever she is playing with
2) Loves animals like tigers, bears, dogs, cats, lions and likes to make growling noises
3) Knows how to sign please, more, dog, fish, bird and likes to bark when he sees a dog
4) Walks around the whole house. He even can stand himself up when he's fallen down without grabbing on to anything to help him.
5) Eats pretty much anything you lay in front of him (he loves muffins, cakes or any kind of dessert - he is a true Molyneux)
6) Loves to test his boundaries and really knows how to through a fit and show that he's upset when he doesn't get his way (he's probably learned this from Leah)
7) Loves when "da da" comes home or when we go in to wake up Logan in the morning. I hope he will start saying "ma ma" soon especially since I'm with him all day long.
8) is learning to give hugs and kisses and waves his hand when he is saying goodnight
9) Loves his soft, warm blanket that Logan's mom gave us when he was born. He looks forward to getting his blanket at bedtimes and snuggling his face in it.














We had a pretty low key birthday celebration with Cameron today. He already received a fun dump truck and two jackets from Grandma Molyneux and some clothes from Nana Wallace so we just had him open a few toys that we found for him. Logan is going to make Cameron's favorite pumpkin muffins tomorrow for breakfast since we didn't do any cake today. Cameron loves all of the toys and gifts he received for his birthday and so did Leah. We keep reminding her that they are Cameron's birthday toys so she needs to let him play with them.

We are taking him to the doctor tomorrow for his year check up so I will post his stats when I get them tomorrow. We already know he's a big boy because he is wearing 18 month clothes and is as tall as other kids at church who are already in the Nursery.

Cameron is such a happy boy with a fun personality. He is friendly, playful, active, curious, opinionated, and social. He doesn't like to be left in a room by himself. But he's usually good at keeping himself entertained. He is such a joy in our family.





Here are some fun videos (sorry, some are long and mainly for my parents who weren't here for his birthday)

Hillary, didn't you post about him being six months just last month? I'm afraid I don't actually believe he is a year old. Seriously, how did that happen? He is sure a cute little thing! I think he looks a lot like Logan. Hurray for your cute family!

Soo cute! I can't believe how much hair he has, Gracie and I are so jealous.

Happy birthday Cameron! He is so cute. I love the video of him playing with the animals.

His hair is getting out of control but I can't bring myself to cut it!
