Camden: 1 Month

I did monthly updates for Kaylie so now it is Camden's turn. 


Movement: Camden has been quite the mover since he was born. You put him in tummy time and he kicks his feet like mad and moves himself. He is just starting to hang out on his gym, he is starting to kick his feet on the piano and hitting the toys with his hands.

Eating:Camden eats about 3 oz every 3-4 hours. Luckily, he doesn't spit up like his sister did, but he seems to get gas more than she did. We are thinking we need to move him up to 4 oz. during the day soon, but we will see. He seems to like to eat more than Kaylie did. 

Teeth: No teeth


 Sleep: His sleeping is getting so much better than it was. Zach and I had a rough first few weeks with him. Zach was very busy and stressed at work so I felt bad letting him help me at night, but I had to let him because I am a terrible bear if I don't get enough sleep. He is now going to bed around 8 p.m. and sleeping to midnight or 1 a.m. Then he sleeps until 3 or 4 a.m. Then we are usually up at 7 a.m. or so. It is still rough with the nightly feedings, but it is getting much better. You forget how little a newborn sleeps at night, when it has been so long.

Voice: Other than crying we have not found our voice yet. Mommy and Daddy can not wait to hear the chattering. I am sure that Kaylie will love her brother even more once he starts talking.

Favorites: Camden seems to enjoy his bouncer the most. It bounces on its own so that is great for us since he does not nap in his crib. I seem to remember another child that never did that either!

Diapers/Clothes Size: Pampers Size 1 for Diapers and 0-3 Months in clothes.

Nicknames: Kiddo, Bud (Kaylie's Favorite), Cam
