All About Cams

So, I'm feeling bad that I don't really do baby books, and I'm terrible at documenting those milestones that I probably should...so in an effort to do something I'm dedicating this post to my beautiful Camsy.

Nicknames: Cam, Cams, Cami, Cammers, Camsy, (I rarely hear anyone call her Camryn but Noah)

Favorite Food: Pears, applesauce, and sweet potatoes. She does not like bananas! She will, however, eat anything else you give her. Although she might just make funny faces at you while doing it, like this:

Favorite toy: Flower rattle. She will how ever accept anything! She loves my cell phone and the tv remote. She also giggles everytime I fast forward the tv...I don't know why... Oh! and an ultimate favorite may be straws. Why is it that kids don't enjoy the toys you buy, but random objects?

What she is doing right now: Cams is just getting the hang of sitting on her own. Two days ago I was sitting outside watching the kids play on the swing and she sat on the grass by herself for 20 mins. Way to go baby! She loves to roll and roll, but she tends to get herself stuck on furniture, then she gets upset.

Other people's comments: I have so many people that stop and stare at Camryn and tell me how cute she is, but the number 1 comment I get is about her big, beautiful blue eyes. This picture doesn't really do the color of her eyes justice, but you can see her lashes which I am totally jealous of.

Personality: I tell people that Miss Camryn has a bigger personality than my other two had as babies combined. She is sooooo smiley! I hope that I can get a video of her wiggle dance, because it is the funniest thing. When Camryn is happy (like when I come in to get her from her crib) she does "the wiggle" which is her shimming her shoulder and her hips so she looks like a little worm. It is hilarious. She really only gets upset when she is hungry or tired or when brother Noah gets too rough with her (which happens more often than not). Poor Noah just loves his little sister so much that he can't help but smush her head, hug her tight, pat her belly, and just love her the way an almost 4 year old knows how. Makes extra work for mom keeping her safe, but it is good to know that he loves Cams so much. Cam is also very interested in everything I'm doing and frequently just stares and studies...and then grabs

in this case it was the strap on the camera.

Thing that is cute now, but will most likely cause problems in the future: Camryn sucks her thumb. And while it's cute and it is helpful when she is going to sleep, I know I will be a problem to break her of it. We do try to avoid her sucking her thumb, but she has a way of sneaking it when she wants to. For example, the other day she was playing on the floor and I went down to switch the laundry, when I came back upstairs I saw this:

I know, what do you do? Take the thumb out of the poor baby's mouth and wake her up? We'll just have to wait and see how this plays out.

Lastly, I will include some the only current stats I know of her. She was weighs 15 lbs, she is starting to fit in 6-9 month clothes, and she is cutting down to three 1.5-2 hr naps a day.

My goal is to update on Reese and Noah soon. We'll see how that goes! Love you Cammers!
