Getting big

It's hard to believe that just about a year ago I found out I was pregnant. I still remember it like it was yesterday. I wonder if I always will....since he'll be my one and only. Daddy is still recovering from his vasectomy he had done last week. But I'm sure Camron will give me a run for my money!

But one year later, I have an adorable (almost) 4 month old baby boy, who is next to me in his playpen at 7a.m. on a Saturday morning, talking to his giraffes. And laughing at me when I look at him and say hi.

He's a strong boy, he can hold his head up very well now, much improved from the wobbliness we once saw. We got a new toy, it's called a Bumbo. It's kind of a chair made especially for babies that are learning to sit up, it helps support them. Sometimes when Aaron is holding him in a half laying down position, Camo can sit up on his own. So I figure it's time to start the next step. Before we know it he'll be crawling around, and walking.....

He enjoys watching people and things move about in their daily routines. He himself has a routine, I thought the day would never come! Though he's an early riser, he gets up around 6:30a.m every day and plays in his crib for a while, staring at the mobile and eating his hands, while I get ready for work. Then we go to the babysitters house where he plays all morning and watches the bigger kids, takes his nap around noon or 1 p.m., then plays and watches some more til I pick him up. Then we go home, and by 8:30 he's ready for bed - most of the time only waking up once in the middle of the nite. He's also starting to recognize familiar people, of course Mommy and Daddy, also Jaron, Grandma, Uncle Jake and Aunt Lizzie :)

He's just getting too big!
