Camden's party and the weekend

For Camden's birthday we invited his Grandma and Grandpa over for dinner, and they celebrated with us. We then opened presents, and had cake and ice cream. Because of his love of Elmo, I made him an Elmo cake. When he woke up the morning of his birthday, he saw it sitting on the counter. He was so cute. He had the biggest look of joy and surprise. He kept saying, "Oh wow!" Throughout the day, he wanted to go see it. He didn't even ask to eat it. He just wanted to look at it.It was so cute.


He got a little tricycle, and kept saying, "My bike!" It has a little compartment in the back, and immediately he got his Elmo and put it in there, so he could give him a ride.


On Friday, we had Camden's birthday party at the children's museum. We invited all of the cousins, and they had a great time playing. Camden unfortunately, wasn't feeling great, and so he didn't want to participate in everything. We ended up taking him to the doctor's office that night, and he has a sinus infection, even in his tonsils. Poor little guy. The antibiotics seemed to help pretty quickly though, because the next day, you could tell he was feeling a lot better. The great thing about having a party somewhere else, is that they clean up and do pretty much everything for you. It's a piece of cake for us! Speaking of cake- they even provided one for him there.


Since it was Memorial Day on Monday, we went up to Matt's Grandparents land in the mountains, and had a BBQ. The kids love to spend time up there, especially with their cousins. They had a great time- and nobody fell in the water, which is pretty amazing, with our record. The kids run, hike, try to catch snakes, and see the Moose. They take their binoculars, and have 'scavenger' hunts, and have so much fun. We pretty much just follow Camden around, making sure he doesn't get hurt. He cannot sit still for 2 minutes, so we wander a lot. :) It turned out to be a really nice weekend.
