Baseball Birthday Party

We celebrated Camden's birthday a bit early this year (on September 17th) with a baseball themed bash! He is a huge fan of the game! It was a chilly day at the park, but we had a great time with family, friends, hot dogs, cracker jacks, licorice ropes, peanuts, a popcorn machine, and baseball and grass cupcakes--made by Mommy and Gramps--and a few other things that weren't in the "baseball food" category. The hubs and I made the mistake of putting the wrong memory card in the camera so I took six pics and it was full. Ugh! Thankfully our neighbor willingly took photos for us.

Everyone is singing "Happy birthday." The tongue comes out these days when he's not sure what to do with himself (feeling shy, upset but doesn't want to show it, etc)

Cupcake time!

Some friends let us borrow their popcorn machine...fun!

So glad my parents were here to celebrate the birthday boy!

Swinging!

Disclaimer first, then we'll get to the post...we need a new computer. We've needed a new one for years! Our desktop is super old and it has thousands of pictures on it from when Camden was a tiny one. Iphoto takes a long time to load so we don't even open it anymore and we haven't added any new pics since we've lived in WA (almost a year and a half). The recent pics are on Jonathan's work computer so I don't have access to them when he travels (I also can't download...upload?...any new photos). For some reason his computer does not display the images by date, they are just all mixed up. All that to say, I lose track of what I have posted about and what I haven't because pics get lost in the shuffle. It's annoying. Again, we need a new computer! Now, for the post...from August. We headed to the park near our house so Parker could swing for the first time at the end of August. He was a fan, just like his big brother.
