Nov/Dec 2005

Cameron truly loves to run, climb, and jump on the bed....He likes playing chase around the table and why wouldn't he like to almost gauge out an eyeball for the challenge of it all? We have gone to the zoo....do they know that kids in strollers cannot get any view of animals through fences and bars at their eyelevel.....you'd think it would be a consideration......We went to Dec. Nights at Balboa Park with Auntie Amy and Uncle Brad. We saw all the Xmas lights-He didn’t like Santa Claus and cried when I forced him on his lap for the token picture....hope he doesn't freak out from now on when he sees a Santa. His bedtime ritual is growing longer and longer-eat, bath, blanket, pacifier, 3 books, singing, bed.....yeah I am a sucker. He likes to hum while I sing or if I stop singing....so glad he has no idea his mom has no musical talent...he'll figure it out in good time. I may have found my live in maid/butler...he copies me when I clean-vacuum, do laundry
and organize things. He is listening better (at this moment in time) and understands so many concepts although don't get me in one of those obsessive "stages of development" talks or I will barf. Our little man is still a morning person...lucky me-he gets up 5-6:60.
Highlights: Copies words or tell you understands by responding...Makes animal noises for animals(bird, cat, dog, bunny, cow, pig, mouse) and can point our tons of things when you ask where they are...Tries to say ho ho ho for Santa...Makes vroom vroom sounds for trucks....Spins in circles to get dizzy....Wrestles with Zion-tug/war...Plays ball, likes running, tries to hop,...Likes “Itsy Bitsy spider”-we tell him they are everywhere and he raises his hands in the air when he sees them...Hot is a popular word-candles, stove, light, coffee,...Says hot, mom, dad, ...Knows many words-says them his way but points if he can:clock, bear, baby, dog, cat, bunny, cow, horse, spider, bike, tree, keys, truck, books, sun, lights, santa, rudoplh, elf,
Everytime he hurts himself he points at it and seem to say “bad!”...Give kisses on command ....yes command!...now has 2 bikes he can’t ride yet for Xmas-torture! His dad got him his 1st skateboard/helmet...all kids 1 1/2 have one right?...Loves the adominable snowman in Rudoplph book-g and g Skime got him an ornament of him and he like to look at it and make growling noises and take it on and off the tree
