1 year already!

We celebrated Camden's first birthday last Saturday with family in Kennedale. The weather held up and we had a beautiful sunny day at the park! Camden loved his first cupcake! I can hardly believe that one year ago we were finally getting to meet our baby BOY! He will be walking soon and he is full of enegry, babbling all the time. He tries to repeat everything we say these days. He 'talks on the phone,' knows what the tv change does, and uses brushes to brush his hair. He is such a happy baby. He still takes two naps a day most days and sleeps from about 7-7 at night. He is not the skinny little baby that he used to be but a sweet, chubby little boy now. He has the sweetest little blonde curls and gives the best kisses! This has been one of the very best years of my entire life. I just love being his mom! Our weekend in Arlington was packed full with fun. We flew in Thursday and did grocery shopping for the party. Then Cliff and I got to go on a date to the Mavs gave while Mom and Dad put Camden to bed. Friday we finished up party planning and then got to have lunch with the Smedley's who were in Dallas at a conference. That afternoon Dom and Gus came and they stayed the night!!!! It was so awesome to get to spend more than just a couple of hours with them. Dom posted some pics here at augustusedison.blogspot.com. All of Cliff's family arrived in town and came to the party to celebrate along with lots of my family too. We spent several hours at the park on Saturday and then let Camden nap that afternoon. We hung out with Cliff and Debbie Saturday evening and got to go to dinner with them. Then Sunday Lerin was baptized and sweet Denver was dedicated. It was such a wonderful Sunday morning! There were 7 babies dedicated that morning and I had grown up with many of the parents who still attend church at Tate Springs. I just LOVE going home. Nothing like being around people who know your past. :) Enjoy the pictures!

What a sweet baby! Cliff and I are so proud to be Camden's parents. I can't wait to see what the next year holds!
