Cambell - 3 Years Old


Two things he loves most - Tractors and the Green Bay Packers

Nicknames: Cam, Buddy, Junior Boy
Height & Weight: 38 inches tall (58%) and 33 lbs (61%)
Hair: Blonde. I like to keep it cut short. He has horrible bed head if it gets too long!
Favorite Foods: Pizza, Hamburgers (ketchup only), French Fries, Peepie's Oatmeal, Pancakes, Scrambled Eggs, Waffles, Chicken Fried Rice, Avocado, Daddy's Chips, Yogurt, Mommy's Fruit Smoothies and Chex Mix. He will eat most fruits and vegetables, but he HATES bananas and refuses to eat them. 
Favorite Drink:  He drinks skim milk, but I wouldn't say he likes it. He will drink his milk in the morning and the rest of the day it's a struggle. He always wants water with a little bit of apple juice added to it.




 Cambell's first time in the ocean! He loved it! 
Anna Maria Island - 2015


Halloween 2015 - Cambell was Olaf, Lynlee was Elsa.

Favorite Lovie: Puppy Blankie. He also has to sleep with his Minions pillow.
Favorite Toy: His Power Wheels Tractor. He is an impressive driver. This little tractor goes fast (too fast for Mommy's liking), but he maneuvers it like a pro. I always tease Josh that Cambell's a better driver than he is. Cam also likes playing with legos, cars, tractors, trains or construction vehicles. He loves imagination play with his sisters as well.
Favorite Books:  Good Night, Good Night Construction Sight, Little Blue Truck, Llama Llama books, Pete the Cat books, Go Dog Go, PJ Funnybunny, Little Monkeys books, My Truck Is Stuck, Book with pictures of trucks and Curious George (Pancakes and Ice Cream truck are his favorites!) :) 
Bedtime: Cam still needs a nap, but he fights it every day so that means he probably naps only 3 days a week during rest time. On the days he doesn't nap we try to get him in bed around 7:00. Otherwise it's close to 8:00.

 A boy and his dog

Wake Up Time: Typically around 7:00
Favorite Movies/TV Shows:  Despicable Me, The Lego Movie, Hop, Big Hero 6, Alvin and The Chipmunks, The Lorax, PJ Masks, Stinky and Dirty shows (about construction vehicles), any show with a train
Likes:  Wrestling with Daddy, sharing "favorites" at the dinner table, Daddy's truck, Super Heroes (Batman and Superman are his favorites), driving his tractor, walking Charlee, routine (tries to correct us if we change something up), puzzles, treats, the Green Bay Packers, Minions, listening to music in the car, Disney World & Mickey Mouse
Dislikes:  Getting his hair washed, watching baseball (immediately will ask for football or the Packers), sisters leaving him out, really loud noises, church clothes (asks for play clothes!)


Cambell and Lynlee's 3rd birthday! Cambell asked for a Minion cake and Lynlee asked for an Elsa cake... they talked about this incessantly leading up to their birthday :) 



1st Day of 3 year old Preschool - 2015


Latest Accomplishment:  He potty trained in March 2015 (2 years 7 months old). I was so nervous to potty train a boy - I had only heard horror stories. He was actually a piece of cake to train :) Potty training the twins went remarkably smooth - I told Josh at least one thing about having twins had to be easy! It took him a few months to control his bladder while sleeping, but he's been staying dry at night for a few months now. For some odd reason he still wants to wear Pull-Ups to bed. Stinker.
Fears:  Washing down the drain with the water after a bath. 
Health:  Cambell had all the same ailments this fall that Lynlee had (twins share EVERYTHING!). He had a stomach bug twice and a nasty respiratory virus.
What He's Been Saying:  He talks... a LOT. Everyone always makes comments about us having four girls and how they must talk constantly. Well our house must be the exception because our little boy can out talk all of his sisters. He talks and talks and talks! But he is so stinking cute, it's fun to listen to him :)  It's interesting how things have changed so quickly... at their 2 year appointment I was worried about Cambell's speech and thought Lynlee was doing just fine. Nine months later Cam is talking in sentences and Lynlee is in speech therapy. Cambell's sentences are getting longer and more complicated. He is a little sponge so he throws in random questions/words that you wouldn't expect from a three year old. We're not sure where this came from, but every night he asks us to cover him up like a rectangle :) 



This was Cambell's patented pose when we were on vacation (Summer of 2015)


He asked for a tractor for over a year. He got a tractor. He smiled for days :)
