who the heck knows why, but cam LOVES the swiffer sweeper. after this little tantrum, i can no longer sweep in his presence cause he immediately wants the sweeper and gets pissed when i take it away from him. it's so interesting, the things kids want. if only i knew what he was thinking. i bet his inner monologue goes something like this:
cam: "man, that long pole things looks fun! mommy sure likes pushing it around the house. i want to do that! must. push. pole. thing."
me: "it's just a sweeper, baby. mommy needs that."
camden: "why are you taking it away? i just want to play with it! why can't i have it? why? i want it! i want it! i want it!"
crazy kid.
mommyhood minus the sugarcoating, plus the crazy cuteness of my son that makes it all worth it.

almost 14 months!
hard to believe, but in 3 days cam will be 14 months old! strange how time flies but moves at a snail's pace simultaneously. i know that makes zero sense but that's really what it feels like!
these days, camden's very into sesame street. he loves elmo and for some reason, cookie monster. he even says "cuh" when he sees cookie monster so i assume that's his attempt at "cookie."
he's running all over the place and follows me around the house. it's pretty cute but sometimes annoying, especially when i want to say, use the bathroom.
his new thing is taking small objects and either hiding them or lining them up. the other day, i found all his animal puzzle pieces in the compartment under the seat of the bike (altho B says it's not a bike cause it has four wheels. details, details). he also put all of our coasters on top of the dvd player. i had no clue for days and wondered where they all went.
and this one was the cutest. he started lining up his animal puzzle pieces on the ledge of his tent! haha.

Cam as Russell from UP
Funny how being a mom somehow makes me more into the holidays. Take Halloween for example (though not a real holiday, it sort of counts). Brian and I never dress up and haven't gotten into Halloween since college. But this year? I made Cam a costume and we even created lame costumes for ourselves. And after the trick-o-treating fun was over, I immediately started thinking of ideas for "family" costumes next year.
This year, Cam was Russell from UP. Why did I choose that? Well, everyone says Brian looks like Russell. Everyone also says Cam looks just like Brian. So if a=b and b=c then a=c, right? haha.
Here's the real Russell. And then Cam dressed up for Halloween. Not as extravagant a costume as it could have been, but I think the scarf pulled it together, no? :)
