Invasion

Invasion of the teeth! Needless to say.. Cameron is getting his teeth! It's a good thing and a very tiring thing.. mostly for me! :) Here I got used to sleeping for a while and now he gets up a lot during the night. The top tooth is through but still coming down and the bottom tooth is still invading. And I think that the other top tooth will invade soon...Three invaders at once! Poor kid!
So besides having the teeth, Cameron is now 11 months! Oh my gosh! Where has this year gone? I can't believe that Cameron will be a year old in less than a month. He is such a big boy. For example, today I made him stand and let go of him. He stood for a while just smiling without any help! Can you say.. walking next? Which has me concern just because how am I going to keep him out of getting to the ferret cages?! He already is trying to get in between the couch and chair or CLIMB over the chest.. smart boy..But he is just so darn smart and cute... ahh.. crazy boy of mine. :)

Life is interesting

Here are a few random pictures before the real info:
Me and Shaundra (who was dressed as a man) and yes.. this is my "slutty" look, which ended up being my character for the halloween dinner.. so me (just kidding!)

Chad's puking pumpkin :)

Grandpa and Grandma Corder dressed up as their characters for a halloween party (they were caretakers of an old haunted inn) Grandma Corder won for best costume...she was great! and Grandpa was scary with his tools :)

I have a leaf!

So if you read the previous post, you realized that that week was only the beginning half. Well, the rest of the week was just as bad. So Cameron was sick for the whole week! (he was better by the end of it) And on that Thursday, my mother in law ended up rolling the pickup truck onto the driver's side and sliding on the dirt road due to the poor road conditions of snow/ice. She is fine minus brusies and soreness, and we are very lucky and happy that she was okay. The truck...sadly is not okay. It ended up being totaled by the insurance company but the good news is that my father in law is buying it back and getting it fixed. It was Grandpa Corder's truck and has some family sentimentality to it. So that was the end of that week! talk about a big re-do for the family. But everyone was safe even with the bad things that happened.


Halloween was fun despite the wrecks of vechiles. We had a halloween dinner invite where it was a murder dinner mystery. It was fun and interesting! Chad had to work that day and could not come but hte rest of us went. The company and food was great! My character.. was so opposite of me but still fun. It was hard to be in "character" with Cameron awake the WHOLE time and getting into everything. lol. Maybe next year... it won't be so bad? For the ward halloween trunk'o'treat, Chad, Cameron and I were the "snowboarding" family with all of us wearing the outfits and goggles. I even made Cam a little snowboard out of cardboard and made it look like one of Chad's boards. It's really cute if I do say so myself :) And I took Cam around to get candy, which Chad and I have enjoyed! :) It was so fun and sadly don't have many pictures. But I will get some from friends and post them soon.

This past monday was great! I got to rearrange Cam's room with the wonderful help of Chad. And I have to say that I LOVE what we did. We moved everything to make more space in the center of the room, so when Cam gets older he can play or something like that. Also made it possible to have another crib in a corner for whenever we have the next kid. I am so excited and just LOVE it :) if you can't tell. But that is all the news for us. Life is interesting but the Lord always watches over us. :)
