Well, my saga about sleep continues. I think we are in a better place now, seem to have a bit of a routine of 9pm, 1am and 5am, give or take a half hour or so. I know as soon as I say this it could change but it's been holding for a few nights in a row. Even last night after a sleepy day yesterday. Getting up just once in the wee hours of the morning is a nice improvement over every three hours. I will gladly take it. Even got to sleep in a bit yesterday morning as Carey got him back to sleep after the 4:30ish feeding.
Of course as Cameron stays up more during the day, it can be a challenge to figure what to do with him. He can't really play or do much just yet. When he gets "tummy time" he really wants to push and scoot across the floor so we are definitely working on moving as soon as possible. Sometimes now in his bouncy seat, he leans forward as though trying hard to roll out of the seat. His big brother is probably inspiring him to want to get up and move and do things. Caleb teased him the other evening saying, "Can't catch me!" I told him to just wait. We talk often about how baby brother isn't big enough just yet to do many things.
Caleb has sometimes taken to tell us that we have two babies. Then he'll lay on the floor and say "Goo goo ga ga" and things like that. We've told him that we are so glad that he's a big boy that there are so many cool things that he can do. But we also make sure to give him a big hug and extra attention.
We are attempting to get things going a bit more for potty training. Trying to get Caleb on the potty a few times a day. That probably is partly why he wants to be a baby still. But, maybe soon we can get there and eliminate one set of diapers and pull ups to buy all the time.
Hope everyone is doing well and is enjoying the beginning of summer. I swear I have been meaning to post new pictures but the time just races by on us! How is it already Monday again?
Take care and talk to you all soon.
