Please bare with me as I try to catch the blog up with my life. I want to be able to look back and remember everything as it happened so that means doing some quick updates that are not in real time.
Camden Ivey turned one month old on February 17th. His first month of life FLEW by but I guess that's what happens when you spend 2 weeks in Florida and then travel back home.
Weight
At his 2 week check up, he weighed 9 pounds 8 ounces and was 21.5 inches long. We are thinking his birth certificate may have the wrong height on it since his length is the same as it was at birth. I'm guessing he weighs about 10.5 pounds.
Eat
Camden loves to eat. He is currently eating 4 ounces every 3 hours during the day. He is on Enfamil Infant formula and so far so good.
Sleep
He is a great sleeper at night but struggles with naps. We can usually get about a 5 hour stretch out of him at night. He loves to be swaddled and we moved him to his crib at 4 weeks old. Up until that point, he was sleeping in a rock n play and a pack n play while in Florida.
Milestones
Camden is already an experienced traveler in his first month of life and has been through 4 different states. He left the hospital and stayed in one home, then moved to another rental house, then started the 10 hour journey home. He even stayed in a hotel room and did so good. I was a little bit nervous about a 2 week old staying in a hotel but he was a champ. He experienced his first Valentine's day and mama and daddy even enjoyed a date night out sans baby. He slept in his crib for the first time and even rolled over at 4 weeks old from his stomach to his back. That was more than likely a one time thing based on how I positioned him but it did happen. He also took his first bath in his tub and he loves the water.
Likes
He loves to eat, sleep, snort like a pig, kick his legs, ride in his car seat, listen to music, and follow us with his eyes. He also loves his brother Hank.
Dislikes
Being held too much, dirty diapers, and being too hot.
Clothes
He is wearing mostly 0-3 month clothes. He can still wear a couple of his newborn pieces but it's mostly 0-3 month. Some of the 3 month clothes are a little big but it won't be long before he is in them.
Camden Ivey, you have completely changed our world for the better and we love you more than anything. We are so excited to watch you grow.
