Here We Are!

Hi Family and Friends! For all of you have little ones of your own you will completely understand why it has been too long since we have posted any pictures. Just when I think I have a few minutes to upload pictures, Camden decides he wants Mommy to hold him, feed him, or change his diaper. Of course, Mommy drops whatever is going on to meet Camden's needs. Anyway, Camden is now just over three weeks old and growing like a weed! Each passing day he is changing and according to most folks he is looking more and more like his Daddy.Since it has been so long since we have posted any pictures, we thought we would back track a bit and post some of our favorite pictures over the last few weeks.

Here is Camden after his bath. Camden's least favorite thing to do is bathe. It is amazing how he can go from imitating a roaring lion to imitating a peaceful lamb in just a few seconds! There is something about being naked and wet that Camden does not like. Hopefully when we graduate from a bath on the counter top to a bath in the big tub Camden will enjoy getting all cleaned up. Maybe we should incorporate some toys and see what happens. After all, Camden's crying is much worse on Mommy and Daddy (and Shadow as it hurts his ears)!

This is a glimpse of Camden's two week well baby check-up. When we first arrived Camden decided it was lunch time. When Dr. Cullen came in, Camden was not happy. After all Dr. Cullen interrupted his lunch and made him get naked. At least Camden showed Dr. Cullen that he has a strong set of lungs. Dr. Cullen says Camden is a "fine boy"! Camden now weights 7 lbs and 14 oz. We are not having any trouble gaining weight - kind of like Daddy and Mommy!


This is Camden with his First Teddy Bear Alpaca. Alpaca's fur is made from alpaca fur. Camden loves him as he is the softest teddy bear ever. Mommy got this Alpaca for Camden before he was born.




Last weekend Cousin Craig spent the weekend with Daddy, Mommy, Shadow, and me. We had such a great time! Daddy played legos and tractors with Cousin Craig and me (really I just watched while they played). My cousin Craig loves to hold me. He says he is good at holding me because he holds me "like a cat." Craig, I hope you can come stay again with me sometime soon. Maybe it will be warm enough for us to play outside with my Daddy!


Well, we better go for now. It is bath time and our Pappy is coming to visit us soon! Bye for now but hope to be back soon!

Camden Duane Yake Has Arrived!

Hi Everyone! Many of you are aware that Camden arrived on Thursday, March 6th at 7:20AM weighing 7 lbs. and 6 oz. and 20.5 inches long. Last Wednesday Austin and I went to our 37 week check-up and ended up heading to the hospital afterwards. We came home on Monday, March 10th early afternoon and are now well on are way to adjusting to our new lifestyle. Here are a few pictures of Camden's first few days of life outside of Mommy.

Still Waiting.............

Hi Everyone! It has been so long since we've posted an update. Everything is still going well, and we are still waiting. Tomorrow will be 5 weeks until our official due date; however, I think we are ready both physically and emotionally anytime. Baby's room is finally finished, and we need to take some pictures and post so that you all can see. Shadow is beginning to adjust to Baby's room. The first few days he wouldn't stay out of the crib and insisted that the rugs be placed upside down. He knows something is up, but we don't think he has a clue of what is coming. More updates and pictures to come - hopefully this weekend!
