Cameron is already 5 weeks old! We have his one month appt tomorrow so I will post his "official" stats once I know them. He is growing unbelievable fast! He is already wearing the clothes that Jadyn wore at 3 1/2 months. He has already started to smile on purpose (started on July 31st). It is so cute! He loves to be held. As long as he is being held, he is the happiest baby. He hates his car seat which means he hates the car. He usually cries most of the car ride (no matter how long or short). So, I am getting good use of the baby Bjorn carrier and the Moby wrap. I love the Moby wrap but it takes a few minutes to get it on where the Bjorn takes a second. Talking about crying - this baby can wail! Holy cow, does he have a set of lungs!! We always say that he is our angry little guy! He is also very gassy but not in a fussy way. You can literally feel the gas bubbles go through his system. Thank goodness for Mylicon! Anyway, Cameron is so cute and makes us so happy! I absolutely adore my littlest guy!
Jadyn is 2 1/2 years old. He is in the process of potty training. He has some great days and some really hard days! (Today has been a great day!). He absolutely loves his big boy undies. While I am on maternity leave, he is going to school 3 days a week. He just loves school and playing with his friends. He is learning so much! All the teachers love him at school and say he is so well behaved. He usually is but he is also 2 and has many 2 year old moments with mommy (i.e. whining, not listening, throws a fit, doesn't share, etc). Jadyn is a GREAT big brother! He loves Cameron so much. He always wants to hug him and kiss him. He likes to hold him on the couch or hold his hand when we are in the car. It's quite amazing that if Cameron is crying, Jadyn can usually calm him down. Overall, Jadyn is so sweet and affectionate. I love how he likes to hug and kiss me. I love (usually) the things that come out of his mouth. He can be so funny and he knows it! It's amazing to watch him grow and learn!
Mocha is 8 weeks now. We have a love/ hate relationship right now. She is incredibly cute and so smart! But, she is a puppy and loves to chew. The bitter apple spray has helped so much but she also likes to chew on my hands and those puppy teeth hurt! She loves to sit in Cameron's bouncy chair and the car seat (sometimes, while he is still in it!). She is growing so fast too!
Us - we are good and busy! Ivan has been really busy at work (especially since this week was tax free)! I am enjoying my maternity leave but it is going by way too fast. I have so much I wanted to get done before it was over and so far I have gotten nothing done! I supposed that is the point of maternity leave - to take care of your children and to get some rest.
I hope everyone is doing well (does anyone even read my blog?). Keep checking the kodakgallery site for pics.
