Cam turns 3!!

 Cam turned 3!!

Cam is a fun, energetic, independent, and fun loving little guy. He absolutely loves Elmo and Mickey Mouse. He really likes to play on the ipad, my phone and watch movies. We really try to limit his time on this devices. However, sometimes when we do he throws the biggest tantrums ever. Yes, he is indeed three. Other than this he rarely throws tantrums. If he does I know it is because he needs a nap or go to bed. He is a sweetheart! Being a normal 3 year old he will sometimes do something wrong, like hitting me, etc. However, when he realizes he has done something wrong or has hurt me or his brothers he will quickly say he is sorry and give the biggest, slobbery kiss ever. He still loves to snuggle, especially in the morning before we actually get out of bed. He loves his brothers and really looks up to them. He loves to play with them. He likes going to church. He is usually the loudest one in sacrament, especially during the prayers. Cam really likes to say prayers with other people. When he realizes somebody is saying a prayer he will fold his arms and say "Heavenly Father" and try to copy everything they are saying. Because his speech isn't completely clear yet most people think he is being noisy. But in reality he just trying to say a prayer with the person saying the prayer, even the sacrament prayers. He still really enjoys looking at the hymn book and the children's song book. Even though he can't say the words clearly yet he loves to sing and dance. He loves music. When he is watching Mickey Mouse he tries to sing and dance along. When they ask questions he tries to respond. He is starting to want to walk everywhere instead of being in his stroller. However, when I let him walk to school instead of it taking 15-20 minutes it takes at least 30 minutes. He wants to stop and look at even the smallest things.

 

The Saturday before we his birthday we took all of the boys to Shrekfast. We thought they would really enjoy it, but because they had already seen it and knew what to expect they were not as interest as the first time. They even had a hard time taking pictures. I guess for our next special events we will continue to go the Wynn breakfast buffet.

 

 



The day before his birthday I needed to go pick up some wrapping paper. Before hopping on the shuttle we saw his good friend Will and his mom. She said she would watch Cam for me so I could hurry and do what I needed to do. Here are some pictures she snapped while they were playing in the playrooom.

 



 

 

 Playing hide n seek.
 

Finally, his official birthday! Cam wanted pancakes for breakfast. I attempted to make a Mickey Mouse pancake. The one in the picture is the best one I got. The other boys were pretty disappointed in their Mickey Mouse pancake.
 

 

Since it was his birthday we allowed him to play the ipad, at the table. Kyle was really interested too.

 





After breakfast and the boys leaving for school, Cam and I headed down to the Venetian. We went with our friends Mel and Jasper and Jen and Will. He had a really great time, especially with Will. Usually they only let kids who are 4 and older go down the slide, but since there was hardly anyone else there they let Cam go down the slide.

 



After the slide his next favorite part of the Qube is the ball pit, especially when the balls fly in the air. 

We ate at Fatburger. He also opened his present from Will, an alligator who catches your hand as you try to figure out which of his teeth closes his mouth.

 



When we were done we headed home so he could take a nap. I wrapped his presents and made his cake.

 



Friends, Jasper and Oliver, gave Cam this shirt. He loves it!! He didn't want to take it off. He is suppose to be a Venetian gondola person who has two dogs in the gondola.

 



Opening his presents after everyone is home.

 



 

Singing "Happy Birthday" and blowing out his candles. Connor blew out one of his candles the first time so we had to sing again. He blew out the candles himself. Eric and I were watching videos of his birthday from last year. It was funny because he didn't know what to do. He really wanted to touch the fire. Then he realized he needed to blow out the candles, but had a hard time blowing air out of his mouth. This year he knew exactly what to do.

 



Giving daddy a hug!

 



Eating his cake. I am so glad the boys are not worried about how their cake looks instead they are more worried about eating a piece.

 



 

Telling me he is all done.

 

 

After they had cake it was time for bed. Cam Cam's birthday was coming to an end. He had a great birthday! We are so lucky this special little guy is part of our family! Each of us loves him so much!
