Kam is One!

My grandson Kamden's first birthday party was held at Papa's Pizza on May 9. Yes, I know, it is now June 27. I uploaded these photos, got busy, and kinda forgot that they were sitting here in a draft. Kam turned one year old on May 11, and what a little cutie he is. His mom did a great job with her Dr. Seuss theme. (And the Dr. Suess Foot Book is one of Kam's very favorites. I've read it to him countless times. I try to switch it when he gives it to me but he insists.)

I like pizza, but where's my cake?
With my nephew Jamie.
Ooh look at that cake!








Credit goes to his other grandma, Christina's mom Teresa, for making him laugh!







Here he is with my beautiful niece Brittany and her little darling Brody, whose birthday party I went to today!
My niece Serena with Brody and his dad.
Steph and I. Not sure why the photo make the poster of him have such weird eyes!
Lots of family and friends came to celebrate!

An awkward family photo...
and a nice family photo.
Jamie and Serena were good helpers with presents.
Presents seem to be pretty serious business!


Happy 1st Birthday to Kam!

Kam in May

Hello. My name is LeAnn, aka "Nana", and I have a problem. I am addicted to taking pictures of this super cute little boy. I try to post my favorite ones each month, but I have so many pictures and it is so hard for me to limit myself to showing a few of my favorites. I'm starting to think that perhaps this is perhaps some sort of crazy, as yet un-named condition:  "an unreasonable obsession with taking pictures of one's adorable, incredibly cute and funny grand baby". Oh wait, he's not a baby anymore. He's a toddler! And his nana is such a slacker that she just noticed that the blog of pictures of his first birthday is still an unfinished draft! So many pictures! Well, I'm sure the crazy old dear nana will get to that one of these days. Right now she needs to finish the May photo blog before June is over. And good grief, she can't even figure out what voice she'll use to write this blog.
Kam loves playing outside. It has been really fun watching him learn and discover and play out here.
As you can see, Zeek is loving it too. Such an expressive dog.
We had a little project that involved some sand. So much fun.


Oh yes, Nana thought it was really fun too.

Kam and his pretty mama.
Kam is observing how much everybody adores his silly nana.

Nick and Christina came to visit while we were camping with Doug and Anisa. 
Sticks are already one of his favorite things!
A beautiful campground, Casey's Riverside RV Park in Westfir.

Look, some sticks! Help me, Zeek!
This boy really doesn't need toys as long as there's a stick or two and a nasty dog ball around.  He thinks it's hilarious if you exclaim "Nasty!" as he's putting it in his mouth.
Sunglasses are fun too. Poor Aunt Stephie! (How do you spell Stephy? Steffy?)
Oh yes, love to play with necklaces too. Thank you, Aunt Molly.
I love this little outfit and his expressive little face. 
Walk walk walk, run, walk, he goes all over this yard, usually with Zeek keeping an eye on him.
Oh no, I hope your mama doesn't find out that nana was letting you run with a stick! Sure glad you didn't poke your eye out!
We were treated to a visit from Great-Uncle Gary and Great-Aunt Lela from Nebraska. Sure is too bad that Nana forgot to get a picture of Kam with these important people. :(
Kam loves to play peek-a-boo! (Nana kinda loves it too because of all the belly laughs she gets to hear!)
Hanging out with Uncle Eric.
Taking a walk around the yard with Papa.
Joy, pure joy!

Just so much cuteness!! Love this boy so much. I hope the fact that I download a zillion pictures after nearly every visit doesn't mean that I'm completely insane.  Actually  I did have a few visits in the past few weeks where I didn't take a full zillion. Maybe there is hope for me!
