I am now over 6 weeks old. It’s hard to believe it’s been that long since I graced my parent’s world with my presence. I sure have changed a lot over this short period of time.
This last week was full of ups and downs for me. I watched the Brewers clinch their first postseason appearance in 26 years and then watched them bomb their first two games. Mom said she is kind of happy now that she didn’t make an effort to get tickets for the postseason the way they have been playing.
Another up is that I am growing at a healthy pace. I am now 9 lbs 7 oz, up from 9 lbs 2 ½ oz last week. On the downside, I peed all over myself and the scale while getting weighed. That’s what happens when you take all my clothes off and make me cold. You would think mom would have figured that out by now, but she keeps exposing me to cold air – to weigh me, to change my diaper, to dress me, etc.
Another up for me was meeting my new friend Eli. He is 3 ½ years old and loves the Brewers as much as I do. He told me today when he has a baby (hopefully not for about 25 years per his mother), he wants to name it Cameron. That’s cool. After lunch with Eli and his mom, I got to spend quality time with daddy and Jesse so mom could go get a massage and run some errands. I had a good time sleeping in daddy’s arms.
Mom took me to the gym on Thursday. While she was at her water aerobics class, I stayed at the gym’s child care center. This was the first time since I was born that somebody other than mom, dad or grandma H watched me. I had a good time and was well-behaved, but I think mom was a little nervous about this first. It’s good practice for her though since she will eventually have to have people watch me when she goes back to work in January. She did enjoy the uninterrupted, hot shower she got to take at the gym after her class since I was still at the child care center.
Apparently I have been a bit uncooperative this week with my sleeping and awake times. For example, yesterday I took multiple 30 minute cat naps here and there, but didn’t take a “real” nap until 7 pm. I don’t like to go to bed for the night unless it’s after 8 pm so when I feel asleep at 7, mom and dad didn’t even try to put me down for the night. They know I would have fought it and been cranky at them for trying. I have been sleeping pretty well for about 4 or 5 nights a week, but then every few nights or so, I don’t want to go back to sleep after my early morning (e.g. 4 am) feeding. At least sometimes after keeping mom and/or dad up at that early hour, I will sleep in until 9 or 10am. I’ll eventually start sleeping through the night, but right now I rather enjoy getting up every few hours for a midnight snack.
So now you are up-to-date with my weekly happenings and I am off to start my weekend!
Love,
Cameron
