BOIL?!

Little man has been slightly more fussy than normal and has been waking up in the middle of the night crying some. I thought maybe he was teething again but wasn't really sure. I did notice he had this small bump on his booty. Well the small bump got bigger and so we got concerned. I made a doctors appointment on Monday and Chad took him in ...come to find out he had a boil on his butt! Poor little man!! The doctor had to stick a needle in it and squeeze the stuff out!!!!! OMG I'm so glad I wasn't there because I don't think I could have handled watching the doctor do that to my baby. Chad said Landon was looking at him like "DADDY RESCUE ME!!' But now he is on an antibiotic and the doctor is going to call us with the results of exactly what kind of bacteria caused the boil. He said they are actually pretty common and just an hour before he did Landon's he had to do the same thing to a 10 month old. The doctor said he should instantly start to feel better now and I can tell he already is starting to. Now you know I had to take a picture of the occasion...

poor boo-boo butt

11 months!!

Landon turned 11 months this past Wednesday! Our Internet hasn't been working very well lately so I wasn't able to post on Wednesday. I can't believe we only have one more month before we have a ONE YEAR OLD! Time really does fly when you're having fun!! Landon has developed such a personality. He's wild!! He has learned to say Hayhe!... (Haley)...

He can take up to about 4 or 5 steps and then when he realizes what he's doing he'll sit down. He still doesn't seem very interested in walking and I think that's because he's so fast at crawling. He's still (generally) taking 2 naps a day and sleeping 12 hours at night. He's still mostly in 9 month clothes but can also wear some 12 month clothes. He's eating mostly table food now. He might eat a little bit of his favorite baby foods but he would really rather feed himself. His bottles are half formula and half whole milk and he seems to really like that. He is handling it well too. He says a few other 'words' but mostly just babble. He's such a vocal little man. LOVES a bath still. Splashes like crazy! LOVES Haley still. She likes him pretty good too...especially when she gets to clean up after him at dinner :) He has 7 teeth and looves to have his teeth brushed as well. He's even starting to hold the toothbrush himself some.

We, of course, had a hard time taking pictures this month....but we were able to finally get a cute shot...

And go here to view some more pictures from his 4th haircut and the BCF!

This is what I did today...

...and it brought tears to my eyes!

4th Haircut & Carousel Festival!

Today was a big day for Landon. We took him to the fish fry at the fire station and he probably ate a whole piece of fish. He got to see both his grandma's at the same time too. Then we took him to get his haircut for the fourth time! She cut a little over 1/2 an inch off too. His hair is growing so fast...wonder who he gets that from?? While he was there he got to go outside and see some horses and a doggie. He laughed at the dog...ha. Then we went to the Burlington Carousel Festival. I was super excited about taking him there because I have so many fun memories from childhood of going there. It's a really great festival and they were celebrating 100 years of the Carousel this year. Amazing. Landon really did so well too. He never took an afternoon nap but he stayed strong. The snow cone and funnel cake might have contributed to that some. haha. He did enjoy some strawberry smoothie as well. He got to see his uncle Matthew too...whom is the only person so far that I have seen Landon almost start crying when it's time to leave him. Too sweet. Then we came home and he ate a whole grilled cheese (minus the edges) and a lot of chicken. Piggy. He was such a good boy today though. I think he had a lot of fun and I know we had a lot of fun with him. I won't be able to post all the pictures from today right now but I'll post a few...

Breakfast!

Steps, steps and more steps!

Finally got some videos of the little man taking a few steps. He was a sleepy head tonight, but he still walked some!

so fresh and so clean!

I think Landon's favorite time the day just might be bath time. He has learned to really splash and have a lot of fun crawling around in the bathtub. Since I don't take enough pictures of him...






or videos...

Before bath time, this is what we were doing...

playing and watching thomas...

...and cheesing for the camera

Park!

I took Landon to the park this morning for a stroll and some play time. He had fun exploring the play gym all by himself. Nobody else was there at 8am :) He's still a little young for most of the activities out there but he found many ways to still enjoy himself. And I discovered he's very good at going up steps!

getting ready to go to the park!

iPhone blogging

I got a new iPhone app called iBlogger. I'm trying it out!

Look! Mobile Blogging from here.

Pretty neat! Don't have time to post much right now but I did have to check this out for a minute! Hope everyone has a great weekend. I know I'm looking forward to spending it with my little guy. We just wish daddy didn't have to work :(

Dinner time

This is what goes on at dinner time in the Campbell house:

Shopping!!

Mommy did some shopping for little man this weekend. There were some pretty good deals going on. I spent just under $100 for all of the following:

3 outfits: long sleeve shirt and pants
4 PJs: long sleeve shirt and pants
2 button long sleeve shirts
pair of tennis shoes
hat
long sleeve birthday boy shirt

I also got two pair of jeans and a sweat shirt and matching sweat pants from BRU for right at $20 bucks! He wore the jeans today with a blue collared shirt and looked very professional. :)

Birthday Fun.

On Saturday we went to Kade's 6th birthday party...I cannot believe my baby nephew is 6! They grow up too fast! It was a perfect day for an outside park party. I'm really looking forward to some fall weather! :) Landon had a lot of fun swinging and hanging out in the shade. We took a lot of pictures!

ready for the party!

Grammy and Landon :)

Kade and Landon :)

Cousins :)

love those eyes.

We have a little country boy...


...who loves to brush his teeth...

First Step!

Landon took his first step by himself today!!!!!!!!! Mommy and Daddy were the only witnesses. Of course, when I tried to get him on video he wouldn't do it again. But I did finally get a video of him standing by himself and one of him crawling over Haley like she's nothing but a big ol pillow on the floor in his way. Too funny. :)





...and here's another video...




It won't be long...........................

Landon has learned a new trick.

Crash!

Landon has really started to master holding the bottle and sippy straw cups on his own. He's such a big boy! He's also got a lot better at eating table foods. I got him a few 12 month meals of mac and cheese with carrots, spaghetti with meat sauce, and chicken and cheese meals and he LOVED them. He does a lot better with the chucks of food now. He's still eating baby food as well though.





On his 10 month post I forgot to mention he's still wearing 6-9 month clothes! I've got to do some shopping for 12 month clothes soon I believe though! He's growing fast these days!

He's started to develop independence. He doesn't want you to help him as much with things, and when certain situations don't go his way he gets upset! The following video is an example of that...he gets mad when he crashes!

We got some new blinds and bar stools (thanks grammy :) and a baby gate for the kitchen (it keeps Haley out too!...we should have got one of these a long time ago!). Here are some more pictures.
