Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! We've had so much snow today! This morning was a beautiful, warm morning but it has progressively gotten colder and snowier!! My Mom was supposed to come over tonight, but not with these roads!! Not too much is new with us. We've been getting ready for Christmas and all that fun stuff! We decorated the house on December 1st and we've had Christmas parties with our New Mom's group last Wednesday and today. Last week the kids did a gift exchange and this week the Mom's did a cookie exchange. It's been a lot of fun! I can't believe Christmas is only 13 days away! It's crept up fast this year! Blake is doing really good. He's still struggling with his two top teeth. I can see them some days under his gums and then they disappear. I hope they break through soon. We are going to have Blake weighed and measured on Friday (Cal's off work) and I'm guessing that he is around 18 1/2 pounds and 27 1/2". We'll see! He's not crawling yet, but sometimes when we put him on his stomach he pushes himself backwards or turns to face another direction! And he's kicking his arms and legs a lot! But most of the time when we put him on his stomach he rolls over to his back! Crazy kid! LOL! Who knows, maybe he'll just do like I did and fore go crawling and just walk! He does love to stand up at the coffee table and couch or when you're holding his hands. He continues to be very strong! He's quite brave too - he likes to let go with one hand and look at you as if to say, "Look Mom! One hand!" It's pretty cute! And his fear of the bath tub is officially over. I suppose we'll never know why he was scared, but we are very happy he is back to loving his baths! Something new he started last week at swimming is splashing with his hands. He LOVES slapping the water now! And getting everyone within a few feet wet!! We have some other exciting news!! There is a new addition to the Cameron family! Cal's brother Gerry and his wife Lesley had their little boy on Friday, December 7th at 03:22. Colby Curtis Cameron weighed 7 lbs 11 oz and measured 19.5". He is absolutely beautiful and looks quite a lot like his Dad! And everyone is doing well! It will be so much fun to have a nephew so close to us! And I'm sure Blake and Colby will enjoy being near each other! Take care everyone! And drive safe and stay warm :)

Love Tracy
