The truck is the Mega Bloks Caterpillar Constructor which is for ages 1 and up. (I’m glad Cam picked something age appropriate!) The Amazon description says it is “the dream truck of all active little boys“… it should say children because girls can obviously love it too! The truck has a large handle for pushing and carrying, and it comes with a small dump truck and a bulldozer. Cam loves putting the little trucks inside the big one and pushing it around. Vroom! Vroom!
The truck adds some nice variety to Cameron’s mostly girly toy collection. She is all about wearing shoes and accessories, carrying purses, holding her “babies,” and pushing her shopping cart around (filling it with her most prized possessions).
Cameron loves shoes and can put our shoes on her feet all by herself. She has been figuring out how to put on her own shoes and also how to put on clothes. She does a pretty good job!
Cameron’s hair is growing thicker and longer which means I actually have to style it daily now. My hair is wavy but it’s nothing like Cameron’s curls (she gets that from Johnnie). I’ve learned that you can’t brush dry curls or else they turn into a frizzy mess. Every morning while Cam eats breakfast, I comb water through her hair and then let it dry into ringlets. I’m thankful it is that easy!
This is one of those real-life snapshots below… a half-finished picture wall project and things of all kinds sitting around. Cameron is eating sliced pears, french toast cut into sticks, and cheese. There is milk in the cup with the straw and water in the sippy cup. Life is just like that 🙂
Cameron and I both wake up every morning with crazy hair. I tame Cam’s hair with water and tame mine with a flat iron. Fortunately for Cameron, the salty humid air keeps her curls looking great all day. Unfortunately for me, that humid air brings back my waves within an hour. There is nothing I can do with these awkward wavy post-baby bangs except hide them under a headband or plaster them with hair spray every. single. day. and wait impatiently for them to grow out. I like the bangs but they are way too much work. The pictures you saw of me with nice straight bangs… there was half a bottle of hair spray involved there. I can at least be thankful that Hawaii is not fancy (flip flops are considered professional attire here) so crazy hair isn’t too out of place.
Life (and hair) shouldn’t be taken too seriously when you are on the beach 🙂
