STARTING YOUNG...

Well, I am happy to report that Cameron is healthy and happy once again (and taking after his dad, as you can tell by the photo).

Now I, on the otherhand, have been slacking as a mom. I've just come to the realization that we need to be feeding him more (doesn't he look underfed???). It's hard to remember where they're supposed to be developmentally, and what you as a parent are supposed to do to move that along. I followed the 'book' with Mackenzie, and she was a book following baby, so it made it easy. With Cameron it's been whatever is easiest! Poor guy - always getting the short end of the stick. Anyway, he's been eating one 'meal' a day, and he should be up to three. I guess we'll start with some breakfast next and then add lunch. But, he's just seemed so content with his bottle that I didn't think we had to change it :)

We've also been working on the sippy cup with water and he loves playing with it, but he wants me to feed it to him! When I walk over with it, he sits there with his mouth open waiting for me to give him a drink. Such a boy. He is getting the hang of it, though. I started him right away on the Nuby cups b/c they were the only ones Mackenzie would drink from at first, and I think that was a wise decision.
