7 years

It seems like just yesterday that Craig and I were getting married. We have just celebrated yet another anniversary. It has been 7 years now and so much has changed. As you may have noticed we have had a beautiful baby boy who is now, can you believe it, 10 months old. He is just about walking now, taking 3 to 4 steps at a time. Most of the time it is not very graceful to watch but he is figuring it out one fall and bump at a time. And would you know that the day after Christmas he cut his very first tooth. He loves to run his tongue over it. But don't be surprised if he doesn't let you look at it. If we try and open his mouth to look in his tongue immediately pops out and covers it, almost cartoon like. Other than a few days of crankiness ranging from 1 to we'd say about an 3 or 4 on a scale of 1 to 10, Camden seems to be surviving his first tooth. He is acting more needy than usual for saying he will go to just about anyone without a problem. We love that he so willing to snuggle but also hope that he will return to his normal curious and independent state soon enough. We have been very lucky. We figure that our next child will be a little hellion because of what an angel Camden has been. Now that he is more mobile he is able to make more messes and it can sometimes be a challenge just to keep up with him. But we would never give him away. We have been so very blessed.
