1 – Soooooooooooooooo I had a FABULOUS weekend. I had an amazing opportunity to assist the SUPER talented Susan Stripling at a wedding in PA. It was SO much fun and I really can’t wait to help her out again in the future. I learned SO much…so so so much.
2 – Cameron’s imagination is running wild anymore. He is absolutely convinced that Swiper from Dora is gonna take his stuff or come get him. He even dreams about it and in the middle of the night you can hear him say “No swiper no no!” I keep explaining that swiper isn’t real, but that doesn’t matter, he is still 100% convinced.
3 – Today was Pajama day at daycare. Cameron couldn’t understand why I would take him to daycare with PJ’s still on. He looked at me as if I had screws loose. It was very funny.
4 – Vocabulary has grown SO much. The sentences he is talking now are big. I went to pick him up yesterday from daycare and he ran to me and said “Oh Mommy! I so glad you found me! Oh my goodness!”
5 – I’m thinkin‘ of going to WPPI this year but trying to find good deals on hotels since that is the only thing that is killing me. Anyone have any good deals they want to let me in on lol?
6 – So I made chili on Sunday for dinner. Usually Cameron won’t touch the stuff. So I did what every other mother does (I think lol), I bribed him…I told him that if he took a bite of rice and chili, I would give him a cookie…I’ll be damned if the kid ate almost a WHOLE BOWL of the chili and than demanded the cookie
7 – 
8 – So I just got a phone call from daycare. Cameron apparently just fell on his face and scraped up his forehead. No bumps/bruises, just lots of scrapes. Man oh man do I have a boy.
9 – Cameron gets to spend the night over mommom & poppop’s this weekend…he has informed me that they have M&M’s and he NEEDS them
10 – November 4th (Election Day) can’t come quick enough. I am sick sick sick of all the phone calls, tv commercials, radio commercials and flyer’s in my mailbox. I had 4…yes 4 phone calls in 2 hours last night about the elections all the way up to 8:45pm last night. I’m just ready for it to be OVER. O-V-E-R!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lets see if I can really do this haha.
1 – Like the new header? I just love watching those 2 walk together. Cameron gets this little manly strut. It cracks me up. It really makes me realize just how big Cameron is getting.
2 – We are having major issues with Cameron talking back. He gets this major attitude and talks to me like I am the 2 year old. While humorous, its frustrating. We keep trying to tell him to talk nice, and in turn, we get “No YOU talk nice! You no mean to me mommy!”
3 – Note to self…I MUST MUST MUST take pictures for my Christmas card this month. MUST. No excuses!!!!
4 – So last week Cameron had pimples. Weird huh? I wouldn’t have thought anything about it…that is until he had like 5! There was NO way my kid was going through puberty yet THAN, the week before…the skin on his fingers was peeling. It was just totally weird. Mommy instincts told me to call the Dr. We took him in…I’ll be damned if the kid had Impetigo AND Strep! Did you know peeling of the fingers and feet are signs of strep on children!? Who knew! We are now feeling 100% back to normal and have no signs of early puberty
5 – We love to sleep with our bath towel on…and wake up with the most amazing hair style as a result…see example below from 10pm one night last week…
6 – I have a SUPER exciting weekend ahead of me…I will totally blog about it after it happens. It is sooooooooooooooo exciting to me…I don’t know how many people will think it’s cool…but for the photographer on me…It’s just amazing.
7 – Congratulations Ernie and Stephanie (Sister’s best friend’s) on their new little baby boy. I can’t wait to meet him and get lots and lots of pictures SOOOOOOOOOOO can’t wait to see him
8 -I am already running out of things to talk about…
9 – I am in need of more kiddos to fill my portfolio up…Check out my website and let me know…Pass it on…Help me out
10 – Okay…last one….Cameron was eating dinner the other night (spaghetti and meatballs). They were home made meatballs and sauce (sauce thanks to Ger’s wonderful family’s recipe) and Cameron, of course, gets SO excited to eat dinner, because we all know NOONOO’s are Cam’s FAVORITE. We are all sitting at the table, Cameron takes a bite, and I get a nice “Mommy…dis is dee-wish-usss mmmMMMmmm“. Wow…he really made me feel like a good cook haha…because I am FAR from that haha.
At the playground…
October 6, 2008 – 1:11 pm
Oh the squeals of excitement. Cameron LOVES to go to the playground. Added benefit is that it absolutely wipes him out since the kid has SO much energy. We took Cameron to the playground a few times this week. We are starting to get more bold too…we now go down the sliding board on our belly!!!
Rock Band Cam…
October 2, 2008 – 1:13 pm
We LOOOOOOOVE to sing, and dance, and play piano Cameron LOOOOOOVES to play Rock Band on PS3 with Ger too. He actually sat for close to an hour playing this game with Ger. They both had their own microphone, and Cam sang along. It was the cutest thing ever.

1 – The other day, Gerry, Cameron and I were driving home from the store. I kept telling Ger that I wanted Cameron to be a Disney character, like Buzz Light Year, since we now like Toy Story, but since I have picked the last 2 years, Ger picked Batman. So Ger asked Cameron what he wanted to be for Halloween….Cameron’s response….”SUPER BUNNY!”
2 – Conversation with Cameron the other day at nap time…
Cameron: GASP!
Mommy: What!? What’s wrong
Cameron: Deres a booby trwap…
Mommy: A what?
Cameron: A booby trwap…
Mommy: Where?
Cameron: Dere Mommy…be wreally careful…
I felt like I was talking to the kid from the goonies movie…
3 – Happy Belated Anniversary to Gerry’s parents, My parents, & My sister…Tons of Love to you guys!
4 – Can I just say how happy I am that fall TV is back…I really missed my shows…it’s almost as if my life is complete again haha
5 – I am proud to say that I have made my first full chicken this past weekend. A little stressful, but all in all, it turned out wonderful, no one died, much easier than I originally thought, and will definitely be doing it again
6 – I had to show Cameron’s dinosaur/dragon toy who is boss. Cameron was very convinced that it was going to get him. So I firmly told him to be nice to Cameron and than tickled his plastic feet…Cameron got a kick out of it…I think it helped
okay so I know I usually do 10…but I have honestly ran out of things to talk about right now. 6 is better than nothing right? Stay tuned this week for a pic of Cam and Ger playing Rock Band
Sydney the Spider Hat…
September 25, 2008 – 1:24 pm
We have the best family ever. Truly, we do. Ger’s Aunt Ruthie just sent another wonderful present to Cameron in the mail yesterday. Sydney the Spider hat, which glows in the dark. He LOVES it, he put it on the moment he saw it and refused to take it off. Slept with it on which was adorable and led to an interesting hair style this morning since we went to bed with damp hair from tubby. Thank you Aunt Ruthie! Cameron LOVES it!
obviously, he wasn’t amused with my picture taking….
Daddy’s Home…
September 23, 2008 – 1:06 pm
And the little dude couldn’t be more excited. Ger was away for pretty much the whole summer…we did get to go down to FL to go see him in between this whole thing, but the last part of the trip and not seeing him equaled to 1 whole month. The reaction to seeing his daddy walk through the door on Thursday night was priceless. I kept Cameron up extra late so he could see him come home. This picture doesn’t even show 1/4 of the excitement Cameron had when he saw him for the first time. He ran right up to his daddy and hugged and kissed him over and over again. Really brought tears to our eyes. We are just so happy to be together again after that long time.

1 – Anyone see Spike the ULTRA DINOSAUR by fisher price? Yeah…it’s on it’s way for Christmas…I have a feeling that it will be VERY popular…I don’t know who will play with it more, Ger or Cameron…heck…I’m thinkin‘ this mommy will have fun too
2 – We now have a fear of the dark. I don’t know where it started, but if a room is dark, we run away and cling onto my leg and I hear “Its really gark in dere mommy!”
3 – Speaking of being scared of the dark…yesterday morning I went to wake up Cameron to get ready for the day and he wakes up in a panic screaming “Its gark in here!”. I calm him down and than he freaks out and screams again “My my my my eyes are broken mommy! Its gark in here” I felt so bad for him but I just couldn’t stop laughing at the whole “my eyes are broken” comment.
4 – T-minus 3 days till all is well in the house.
5 – Oh and as if being scared of the dark can’t get any better…I walk into Cameron’s room last night and noticed the fan was off, I thought it was odd but just though maybe I hit the light switch. Nope…light and fan…dead…I have no idea…I’m really clueless as to why. Ger has a job when he gets home.
6 – Da Da Da Happy Birthday Michael!!! My little cousin is 21!!! We love you buddy!
7 – One big thing on my to do list this weekend…take a few NICE pictures of Cameron…especially for that new Gap Casting Call that is out again!!!
8 – Anyone see the SNL Palin/Clinton skit?? Hilarious!
9 – Sunday, my sister and I got together with the kiddos at her house. Cameron and Madeline were playing oddly quiet and we checked on them a few times and all was well. A few minutes later, Madeline comes down the steps and says “Buddy’s naked!”. Bonnie and I look at each other puzzled and there comes Cameron walking in stark naked. Not one article of clothing on, not even a sock. Completely puzzled, we asked what happened and of course no explanation came from a 2.5 and a 3 year old. But Cameron did manage to tell us that he pooped. Horrified to go see what Madeline’s room looked like, Bonnie made her way up to find Cameron’s old baby tub out with a dirty diaper in it and little brown marks on Madeline’s comforter. Needless to say, both kids got a big talking to and after all was cleaned up, we got a good laugh.
10 – I read a rumour that Canon is having a press conference coming up soon…could it be…a NEW 5d upgrade finally?!?! I know this is nothing exciting to some of you guys, but it’s just another thing for me to lust and drool over. I can’t wait!
