Cameron's actual 1st Birthday

The day before Cameron's 1st birthday we flew to Florida, where Kevin had a work event. We didn't want Daddy to be away from Cameron on his first birthday, so we went with him. It was nice to be somewhere a little warmer in the dead of winter.

On the morning of his birthday we went down to the restaurant at the hotel and Cameron enjoyed munching on Mommy's pancakes.

Cuties!



These two pictures were from our lunch out on the terrace. Cameron had a good grip on Mommy's earring.

Cameron's TV debut!

The day before Cameron's birthday, we got up early and headed down to Rockefeller Center to get Cameron some face time on the Today Show.

Meredith Viera came over and talked to us during the commercial break. She was then kind enough to take a picture with us.

Cameron's 1st Birthday Party

We threw a big first birthday party for Cameron in Dallas on January 17th, a couple of weeks early, so that friends, family and grandparents could all be there to celebrate.

Cameron enjoyed watching the other (older) kids at the party open his presents.

We stripped Cameron to the waist, and gave him his very own double layer carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. Mmmm...

He placed his little fingertips in the cake, as if to say, "Is this really happening?"

And then he went at it with both hands. At one point he had his right hand buried in the cake up to the wrist while he shoveled cake in his mouth with his left hand.

This year's hot new look...frosting goatee!


Here we are after the clean-up.

Christmas 2008

We have some catching up to do, so here are some highlights of the past few months.

Next we celebrated Christmas with Kevin's parents, Grammy and Pops. Cameron was appropriately attired for the Christmas festivities.
