We decided to take Cameron out of the house for a picnic at Clark's Hill Lake. It was a beautiful day, and it would do us all some good to get out in the sunshine! The lake has special meaning for us. It is where we got engaged as well as where we spent much of our time dating since Casey lived there. We loaded up all of our baby gear, stopped by and got lunch at Subway and headed out. It was a really fun time. Cameron slept through most of the experience, but woke up towards the end. Needless to say he was suprised to find a huge, bright world outside of our house. The picture captures it all. It is both hillarious and priceless!

Well we have had several firsts up to this point. We have given our first bath, changed our first poopie diaper, pulled our first all nighter, and none of these will be the last. However, I honestly never had any idea I could love something like I love this little baby. Casey says all the time how amazing it is to become so immediately attached to someone, and he has has us moving at his every cry. He doesn't like his bath or his diaper being changed. He screams through both of them. He is a good eater and as of now, he only sleeps while being held. This creates a problem since this means he has to be held all the time. Right now we are taking turns and the other will sleep. I don't know how long we can keep this up, but we will do whatever it takes to keep the little man happy! We have been blessed to have many visitors from our families come to see us and help out. They have brought food and allowed us to catch a few quick naps. We REALLY appreciate this and are thankful to have such supportive families.
