Our sweet Cameron is three months old today. WOW!!!That's all I can say, WOW. Time is flying by. I love seeing the changes that are happening daily in C's personality and looks but am sad that we will never get him this small again. Our boy is growing like a weed. We guesstimate his weight to be over 13 lbs. It is just amazing to see how much he has grown. (eating every 2 hours will do that)
So here are a few things to remember about this time in his life:
- You are in constant motion. Always kicking and moving your arms. Really the only time the child stops moving is when he is sleeping.
- Sleep- You fight sleep SOO much. I mean screaming fits, tears flowing all with your eyes closed. You are sleeping MUCH better at night and in your bed. You get up a few times to eat but go back to sleep very easily (unlike during the day). You WILL NOT nap outside of someone's arms. As soon as you are put down you wake up. This is our next project.
-Within the past week or so you have really found your voice. You will talk for 20-30 minutes straight. We have lots of conversations where you answer me in your own way. Sometimes you wake up and we let you lay in your bed and talk for a while. I wish I knew what you were saying. We think you are probably talking about how much you love us! :)
-You still love to eat. We nurse every 2- 2 1/2 hours.
- You have also started laughing and smiling A LOT. You are a happy baby, unless you are hungry or sleepy. We are getting lots of good play time. Your smiles make our heart smile. I think you are gonna be a flirt.
- You are doing very well with your tummy time. You've rolled over from your stomach to your back a few times. Your neck strength is great!!
-You are very observant, maybe why you won't go to sleep. You are always looking around. You rarely lay your head on our shoulder because you are to busy looking around, afraid you might miss something.
-You don't love riding in your carseat, but did a little better on our latest trip to Hattiesburg.
-You are VERY loved. You have two sets of grandparents that are over the moon for you, two sets of great grandparents that adore you, aunts and uncles that love you and so many more.
Cameron Charles, it has been a tiring but unbelievably rewarding three months. Mommy and Daddy can't imagine life without you. You have brought so much joy into so many peoples lives. We can't wait to continue to watch you grow and learn!
