3 Months

Cam Jam is now 3 months old. He is actually older than 3 months but I didn't this post done till today.

Where did my newborn go? How did it go by so fast? My brother, Sam, said the other day that Cameron is a little person and no longer the souless blob. Sam never really got the whole newborn thing of a sweet smelling, sleep and eat all the time, that loves to cuddle and falls asleep on my chest blob. Those early days were hard ~ no smiles, no consistency, crying, crying, crying. . .but now I look back and miss my sweet little newborn baby. I tried to savor every little moment but I worried and I stressed about his life and my life and if we were doing everything right.

Things have smooth out. Cam and I have figured each other out for the most part. I get to enjoy the little moments of each day more now that my boards are over and am leisurely looking for a job. Life is good.

Cameron has developed so much of a personality. I can see his likes and dislikes, interests and even at times when he is scared. He loves to interact with people, just smiling at faces and taking it all in. It is amazing to watch this little guy grow. I have a feeling that Cameron is going to have a shy temperament because I see him sit with me or his dad and watch everything very closely. He likes the comfort of what he knows and then will watch something new from afar, taking it all in and getting use to it.

Cam Jam Stats:

Weight: about 13 lbs, probably a bit more now as we weighed him two weeks ago
Height: 23 inches

Things that have changed: more and more talking, can definitely see what seems like across the room, a bit of an increase in active/alert time, and he is starting to mess with his hands, so close to actually grabbing something. I am so excited for him to start picking things up but I forget that once this happens nothing will ever be safe. Oh, and he is drooling ALL THE TIME. Everything is covered from mucus sliding out of Cam's mouth. Bib wearing is a total fashion must right now.
