Camden: 4 Months

Camden is 4 months! There is nothing better than the sweet sound of baby giggles. I still go back and watch videos of Jackson's baby giggles. Camden started giggling this month. He loves to be tickled on his chest and on the inside of his chunky thighs! He also loves to giggle when you hold him up in the air as if he was flying. He rolled over from tummy to back and also rolled over back to tummy once during the night.

Camden is nursing every 3-4 hours during the day and waking once maybe twice a night. He gets very distracted now while nursing which makes it very tough since my house is anything but quiet with a busy, loud toddler running around! Even the sound of chewing on some crackers will make him stop, pop off and look around to see whats going on. Very frustrating but I'm pretty sure it passes or maybe I just got used to it before.

Camden goes to bed around 8 or 8:30 usually and is waking up one or two times a night. We finally transitioned him to his crib and then a week later he was sick with croup and the pediatrician told us to put him back in the rock and play in our room so he was elevated. He is napping in the swing mostly during the day but we need to work on breaking that habit soon.

He likes playing on his playmat and also in his exersaucer. Although sometimes that only lasts for a couple of minutes. He loves watching Jackson and also loves reading and looking at books. He focuses so much on the books where I know Jackson enjoyed reading at this age but don't think he was so fixated on the pages! He loves looking in his new mirror at himself too!

Camden weighed 14lb 10 oz (34%) at his 4 month check up and was 25 inches long (46%). His head was 16 in (62%). Hopefully he's not going to need physical therapy like Jackson did (for his torticollis and plagiocephaly). He got 2 shots and the oral vaccine. He screamed for a minute but was ok shortly after. Camden is wearing 3 months and 3-6 month clothing and is wearing size 2 diapers.

So serious!

Loving his new Exersaucer

Jackson, Connor and Dillon in the track suits Aunt Megan sent for them. Jackson loved it and asked to put it on as soon as he opened it

It's hard to get everyone to smile at the same time for photos!

It's never too late to still wear Christmas jammies

Jimmy and I went out one night and the babysitter took this picture. Poor Camden wasn't too happy. Someone sent these super cute jammies to the boys as a gift

He was about over it at this point...looking for an escape route
