One more shot

Cameron had a follow up shot this morning. He did very well and only cried a little bit. Next month will be a bunch of shots all at once again. It's an afternoon appointment though so he'll be able to come home and just relax the rest of the evening.

I had the nurse weigh him and he's now at 13 pounds, 2 ounces. :> That explains why the size 1 diapers that go up to 14 pounds were starting to seem a bit small. I had already started to put away some of the smaller newborn baby outfits because they were seeming tight. It seemed like time was going so slow and that the little guy wasn't getting big all that fast. Now all of a sudden he's already outgrown things.

He's a very alert little baby and just loves to stand on your legs and look at you with big grins. He also likes to try and grab your face. His latest new talent is blowing spit bubbles and that seems to amuse him a lot.

Big brother Caleb is doing excellent with his potty training. I guess we could almost say that we are there with it as most days he is staying dry all day. Still some oopses but that's to be expected. He actually came with us to the doctor appointment this morning. Note to self to remember an activity bag next time!!! He was taking the doctor's rolling seat for a spin around the exam room. Thank goodness it was a quick visit just for the shot with the nurse and we didn't have to wait on the doctor.

Well, of course I've missed several hours of the morning and now need to get to work! Hope everyone is doing well.

Moving baby!

Cameron is definitely going to follow in his big brother's footprints I think. In the last few days, he's been a wiggling, wriggling little guy. And his hard work paid off today as he rolled over at daycare. My provider just called me in surprise saying that he rolled over and was snoozing on his tummy. He's been like a bucking bronco to change his diaper lately and now I can only imagine that rolling over will make it even more of a challenge. I guess he's in a hurry to get bigger and get moving.

Meanwhile we are also potty training Caleb. Oh my! Busy times for the 4Cs.

Going to keep this short for now. Will write more soon.

FINALLY new photos!

But this post will be short. Cameron's patience for Mommy being on the computer is shot. He wants out of his bouncy seat right now he's telling me. At least I've got some new pictures up. Even one from this morning of him sitting up with his Boppy pillow and chewing.

Well, gotta run!!!

Growing baby

Well, little Cameron is starting to become more aware of his world around him. He's gotten very good at giving big smiles to everyone. Just in the last few days, he'll turn and look at you as you are holding him up on your shoulder. Big brother Caleb loves to say, "Aw look at that smile!" when he's sitting down somewhere. And Cameron often looks up at his brother grinning and in awe. It's wonderful to see them bonding. I know there will be plenty of sibling rivalry still to come but watching the bond beginning is wonderful.

Cameron has been using his hands to put his burp cloths up to his mouth for lots of chewing. He's also trying to grab at things just a little bit. He reaches out to grab necklaces and things while being held. While sitting in his high chair the other night, he wanted to grab some of his toys, I could tell but he couldn't quite get his hand to work as he wanted. Soon I'm sure.

I've noticed in the last day or so a bit of a drooly grin coming. Could we already be getting ready for some teething? I know it may be a bit soon but we do have lots of chewing on the burp cloths too. Well, I guess we'll see.

Still sticking with two wake ups around 1 and 5 but at least they've been pretty consistent despite different daily routines. Perhaps as we get more into the third month, we'll see this shift a little more to some longer stretches. All in good time.

Caleb had been getting in some trouble at daycare for hitting and throwing things but perhaps we have nipped it with a focus on having a "smiley face day" to earn a smiley face sticker for the calendar. Last weekend he got a new Playdoh set for all of the good days he had and for sitting on the potty a lot. He was most fascinated with his lobster scissors for cutting the playdoh.

Well, I should finish this up for now. Maybe if I don't promise to post pictures, I'll actually get a chance to upload some. Hope all is well for everyone.

Take care!
