Halloween Pictures

Here are pictures of Camryn dressed up in scrubs for Halloween...


3 Months Old!

Camryn is now three months old and the time has flown by! It just doesn't seem possible and yet she has changed so much.

As for milestones, she has great head control now and follows our voices and Brady's tail. She can sit up supported. On a good day she'll roll over from her tummy to her back, but usually just screams for tummy time. We are seeing tons of smiles everyday and the baby-babel is the cutest thing ever! Really, it is!

Her weight is up to 7 pounds 12 ounces and the doctor is pleased with her weight gain in the past few weeks. Finally! She is a very long baby (about 22 inches now) and her head has outgrown her newborn clothes! Whoo-hoo for the 0-3 month wardrobe!

She's now sleeping for up to 5 hours at a time during the night, which is great for me! I'm feeling much less like a zombie.

I've been back at work for a few weeks and she seems to be doing ok while I'm gone. Better than her mama! It helps me to know that Daddy, Grandma, and Nanee are taking great care of her when I have to be away.

I do have more pictures to post and will soon! Jesse also bought me a video camera and I'll have to post some short video clips of her just as soon as I figure out how!

The Second Month

It's hard for me to believe that Camryn will be two months old in just a couple of days! The time has flown by and I am very sad to say that I will be leaving her three days a week to return to work. I will miss her almost as much as she will miss the milk jugs! :) Last night we went out to dinner and were gone just under three hours.... well she nursed for 1 1/2 hours (mostly comfort nursing) after we got home and would have gone longer if I'd let her. So hopefully she doesn't want to nurse for six hours straight when I get home from work!

Cami is growing and changing everyday. She has mastered the skills of smiling and holding her head up, and she can recognize Mom & Dad's faces and voices very well. Now we are working on following objects and grasping them with her strong little fingers. A few times she has reached up and grabbed Dad's glasses right off his face!

Sleep is still a precious commodity in this house! Cami is not much of a nap taker unless she is riding in the car. I can get her to take some 10-20 minute cap naps on my shoulder a few times a day. So most days this makes for a cranky baby & Mommy by the time that evening rolls around! At night she will usually sleep for one 4-6 hour stretch and is then awake for 2 hours before we fall asleep for another 2-3 hours.

I do have some pictures to post, however my angel needs her diaper changed and then hopefully its back to sleep for a couple of hours! :D
