Santa & Mickey Mouse came for a visit

Our Christmas was a very good one and I hope yours was as well. As Cameron gets a bit older, things become more and more fun. Shawn and I didn't exchange gifts because quite frankly we didn't have the extra money. We did however spend all of our extra money that we had on Cameron and that is what it is all about. I have always told my husband that once Cameron was born that I didn't need anything from him and I am sticking to my words. I have all that I have ever wanted in this little boy and that is the honest truth. I did get some wonderful gifts from my in-laws and money and gift cards from my parents so it was a great Christmas had by all. Shawn's cousin Stacey and her husband Scott stopped by for a visit along with her sister Marci and her boyfriend and they brought lots of gifts for Cameron. Bless their sweet hearts.... they bought him a Baby V-Smile, 2 sets of cars to go with the Mickey Mouse Race Track that we bought for Cameron, a Mr. Potato Head and a Doodle Pro which is LOVES!! If you haven't checked out Stacey and her site please do so. She is honestly the sweetest person that you will ever meet and when I say sweet, I mean every bit of it. Anyway, thank you Stacey & Scott for those wonderful gifts!! Hopefully we can repay the favor when your little miracle baby comes along : )

Here is Cameron opening a gift from Scott & Stacey Here is Cameron in some of his new pajamas that he received from his Grammy and Grampy.

Mommy & Cameron playing with his new Mickey Mouse Clubhouse - singing the all famous Hot Dog Dance.

Here is Daddy and Cameron performing their version of the Hot Dog Dance - Yippee!

Cool Mickey Mouse Race Track - all 3 of us love this toy!

Cameron received a Choo Choo Train from us as well - he loves it, but loves to sit in the middle of the circle and the train is always crashing head on to his foot. He laughs and then says "boomee". He is so funny!!

I love this precious smile on his face. He was so excited to get this toy. SIMPLY PRECIOUS!!

Here is Cameron enjoying his Doodle Pro. Yep, he is addicted to this toy and he had to take it with him when we left Christmas morning to go to my in-laws house. I received a new printer for my computer, photo paper, printer paper, a label maker (I love being organized), $100 cash, Speedway gas gift card, and 2 Olive Garden gift cards. Cameron received tons of Mickey Mouse stuff, undies (so we can work on potty training soon), socks, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Mickey Mouse Race Track, Choo Choo Train, cars, cars and did I say cars, diapers, clothes, pajamas, a remote control car, barnyard bowling, books, Baby V-Smile, Doodle Pro and well the list goes on. So, all and all it was a wonderful Christmas and we are truly blessed to share yet another one with all of our loved ones! Hope you all had a blessed day with your family and friends and enjoyed the time celebrating the birth of our Savior.

F-I-N-A-L-L-Y

Well, I finally have some pictures of Cameron to work with for Christmas and I must admit that they are pretty cute. I wish I could get him standing in front of the Christmas tree, but I better not press my luck (lol). Unfortunately, I have very few of them where he is looking directly at me, but with a few others I thought I could put together a collage and then create a card to send out to everyone. So, I think that is what I will do. My trick that I used was Mickey Saves Santa.... yep, you heard me right. I have Mickey Mouse Clubhouse to record every morning so we have alot in storage so if he wants to watch some different ones then he has them. Well, we woke up this morning and I noticed that Mickey Saves Santa was on at 3:00 am and it was one that Cameron has not seen. Well, let me tell you that Cameron loves it and laughs and smiles through the whole show. So, while he was laughing and smiling.... I took about a dozen pictures and that way I can pull some out of that batch and use them. Good thing is that he was even clean and dressed cute so that was an added bonus (lol). He wasn't in anything with Christmas colors, but he has a cute little white turtle neck on and a Calvin Klein sweatshirt jacket so he looked decent. Anyway, here are some of the pictures that I will end up using for the Christmas card collage. The one large picture that I plan on using in the collage is of the one of him in front of the Christmas tree that I took on Thanksgiving day (the last picture). He is eating a cracker and has a few crumbs on his mouth, but hopefully that won't show up. I still have to crop and do a few other things to the pictures, but this is what I have so far...... pictures and that is what I wanted and needed. Let me know your thoughts!!
