Cameron is 8 Months Old!


8 Months
Cameron Leigh is 8 Months Old!
Age: 8 Months

Weight: 20 lbs 8.0 oz, ~80%
Length: 29.5 in.,  95+%

Head Circ: 17.00 in, ~50%  (I don't think I measured correctly last month because I got the same number!)
Clothing Size: 6-9 month clothes are getting tight, wearing a lot of 9-12 month clothes
Diaper Size: Pampers Swaddlers size 3 during the day, Pampers Extra Protection size 3 at night.


Cami LOVES solid food.  She seems to know when it's dinner time (around 6pm).  Even if she's had a bottle within the last 30 minutes, she is ready for yummy food.  Right now she's eating breakfast at daycare - typically 4 oz. of fruit with oatmeal.  For dinner we usually have 4 oz. each of 2 different fruits or veggies and then a serving of multi grain cereal.  Cami is a little piggy at night and I swear she would eat more if we tried but I think 10 oz. is plenty for her right now!


Lately she's started taking a bit more formula so I think it's time to introduce lunch.  I started today with 4 oz. of veggies around lunch time and she ate most of it.  Hopefully it will become a part of the routine.  


Cami is drinking 4 6 oz. bottles of formula routinely and then sometimes she'll take an additional 4-5 oz. right when we get home from daycare.  When she takes the extra bottle I use a sippy cup instead.  She does well with one kind I have because the spout is silicone like her bottle nipples.  I have a sippy cup with a stiffer spout and she doesn't seem to care for it.  Cami also efficiently holds her bottle.  I lay her in the boppy and she can drink the whole bottle all by herself.


Fruits we've tried to date:  Apples, Avocados, Bananas, Blueberries, Mangoes, Peaches, Pears, Prunes, Pumpkin


Vegetables we've tried to date:  Butternut Squash, Carrots, Green Beans, Peas, Sweet Potatoes, Zucchini


Cami is sleeping really well too.  Bedtime is between 7-7:30 pm on school nights and sometimes a bit later on the weekend.  We wake her up at 6:40 am for daycare and on the weekends it seems she wakes anytime between 6:30 and 7:30 am.  Very rarely will she sleep later than that.  Cami is still taking about two naps a day.  Her naps at daycare are never consistent but at home she'll usually nap about an hour in the morning and then a good 2-3 hours in the afternoon.  I'm hoping at the new daycare she'll nap a little better.


Cami has started reaching and grabbing a lot more.  Whenever we sit down at restaurants she immediately starts grabbing at everything she can get her hands on.  She loves chewing the corners of our menus if we let her.  Sometimes Cami will even reach to be picked up...it's rare, but it's happened!


Everyday she gets more and more personality...I love it.  I can't wait to see how much she keeps changing and growing.

Cami is doing great, she's almost 8 months old!  We're still working on sitting up unassisted.  She's pretty stable on her own, but if she reaches for a toy she easily topples over.  She has definitely improved over the last few weeks.  When Cami plays on her tummy she can turn herself in a circle but so far no forward (or backward) motion.

I recently bought a portable high chair to take out to eat with us.  If you know Bryan and I, you know we have our fair share of meals out - especially on the weekend.  This new high chair is AMAZING and Cami seems to really enjoy it.  The chair easily clips on any table and is especially nice on booths so she's not hanging off the end of the table by herself in restaurant high chairs.  It also brings her right up to the table which will be nice in the future when she starts feeding herself.

Cami cut her second tooth on Tuesday the 22nd.  Now both her bottom teeth are coming up...slowly.  They make her fussy sometimes and she still whines at night.


We're still working on sitting up.  She can sit on her own for longer and longer, but she'll still fall over within a minute.  She loves playing on her tummy though.  I can set her on the ground surrounded by toys and she can keep herself pretty entertained.

Cami has been a bit stopped up this weekend...again.  That's why I put an asterisk next to her weight above.  She did not have a dirty diaper all day Saturday or Sunday so I'm sure once she gets regular again her weight will go down a few ounces.  Today she finally had a dirty diaper and it was not pretty.  She was definitely constipated and cried every time she had to go.  Poor baby.

This week we started a new morning routine with Cami.  Instead of giving her a bottle right when she wakes up, we decided to wait it out till she's hungry.  She'll typically be good for an hour before she wants her first bottle.  This works well because now we can let her sleep in a bit more before work.  She's now averaging 24-28 oz. of formula a day with 4 oz. of fruit and oatmeal in the morning and then 6 oz. fruit, veggies and cereal in the evening.

Cameron is 31 Weeks Old!


31 Weeks!

Clothing Size:  6-9 month
Diaper Size:  Pampers Swaddlers Size 3


It's been a big week for my baby girl!  She'll be a big girl before I know it!

Cami officially has her first tooth!  Her bottom middle left tooth made an appearance on Wednesday the 16th.  It's slowly coming up and I can tell it is bothering her.  She sleeps fine, however she'll whine in her sleep a few times through the night.  I guess it could be worse!

We also moved Cami up to a 'big girl' car seat.  Her infant seat is getting way too heavy to lug around.  Right now we have her new convertible car seat in my car and the infant seat in Bryan's car.  Eventually we'll need to get another convertible seat for Bryan's car.  The good thing about them is that she'll be able to use it for years to come. :)

Another 'big girl' task Cami did this week was sit in a high chair.  It's so much easier to take her out to eat and use a high chair than tote her car seat around.  I always feel bad for keeping her trapped in the car seat.  She's still a little wobbly in the high chair, but for the most part she's ok.

Cami seems to be on a fairly predictable schedule on the weekends.  She takes 2 solid naps - 1 in the morning for around an hour and 1 in the afternoon for a little more than 2 hours.  As long as we read her signs of when she's tired she'll fall asleep pretty easily.  Hopefully this trend continues!
