Week 2!

Cameron is 2 weeks old today! In the past week, he has because much more active and alert. We had two weight checks. On Wednesday, he weighed in at 4lb 8oz which was only one ounce less than his birth weight. Today when we went for his 2 week Well Baby appt. he weighed 4lb 11oz! The doctor was very happy with how he is developing and growing and expects him to be 5lbs or more when we go back next Monday for another weight check!

Cam and I are getting much better at the whole nursing thing. He is latching much better and my meetings with the lactation consultant at his pediatrician's office have been very helpful. The past day he has been wanting to eat more often and is now up to about 2oz per feeding. I think he is going through a growth spurt which I am very excited about.

Also during the past week he has spent quite a bit more time awake. His eyes are focusing much better and he loves to be talked to. He will just look at you when you talk to him and make little noises like he is trying to respond. I have been trying to introduce him to different sensations as well. He loves the feel of silk and gets excited when you blow lightly in his face.

This Wednesday, Cameron is getting his first professional photographs taken. I want to get them done while he is still so tiny! Other than that, we don't have a lot planned for this week. I have added some pictures below of our handsome little boy! We are so in love with the little guy and can't wait to watch him grow!
