October 2012

Hello Friends & Family--

What can I say the Holidays have come and gone and I got a little side tracked once again.

Back to October (this time an update on Cameron).


Cam experienced his first haircut on October 8th. I had my stylist Pam just give him an overall trim. While I could have waited on the cut it was definitely time to give him a trim. We didn't want him to be mistaken for a girl. He was so good (much better than I expected). His willingness may or may not have been due to his first experience with a sucker. A day of firsts ;) And our curls stayed in tact too!




Since October is Mommy's favorite month, we definitely had to paint a pumpkin! We opted out of carving this year, but we had a good time painting a small pumpkin together. He was actually quite clean, maybe a budding artist on our hands? 


When I began searching for the perfect costume I had no idea what I thought Cam should be. I wanted it to be unique and if I could get away from the characters I'd certainly try. I came upon this adorable garden gnome costume and ordered it right away. Next time I'll order closer to the date b/c the costume was a little snug :) How cute is he? I wore the beard for quite some time too! We didn't go trick-or-treating, but have big plans for next year. He was happy handing out candy (and promptly slamming the door on the kids). 



October also marked the birth of my HS best friends daughter! And a trip to Iowa to see ISU's homecoming game. My Brother and celebrated our birthdays (we are born on the same day--5 years apart). It was a big one for me...30! I really didn't mind, I think the 30's are going to be a great time in my life and I look forward to them. Now we won't discuss the 40's, thankfully I have some time there. See I told you October is the best month!


Love,

Chris, Amber & Cameron
