Caleb is 27 Weeks Old!

27 Weeks
Caleb Patrick is 27 Weeks Old!
Age: 27 Weeks
Weight: 20 lbs 2 oz
Clothing Size: 6-9 months
Diaper Size: Pampers Cruisers Size 3 during the day and Size 4 at night
Feeding Schedule: 4 - 5 x's per day

Caleb's week continued on the rough side.  Sunday morning he woke up with a deep cough, a lot of congestion and and very loud nasaly breathing.  I made him a sick appointment for that morningHe since Cameron just had a bad case of croup and he sounded very similar to her.  I took him in and the Dr. confirmed he had a mild case of croup but said he was past the contagious stage since he'd had the cold over a week already.

By Monday afternoon, the cough was sounding less severe, his congestion had decreased and he was acting much happier.  He also went back to sleeping all night. :)

Caleb has decreased his formula consumption a bit averaging around 20 oz. over 4-5 bottles.  He seems to be much more interested in food than bottles so yesterday we added more food to his routine.  We're going to try a breakfast of fruit and cereal, a lunch of veggie and cereal and then dinner of fruit and veggies.  Mr. Caleb is a growing boy!

Last night he woke up twice and chugged down a bottle each time.  I think he may be hitting his 6 month growth spurt?

Oh it's been a rough week for Caleb!  Starting over the weekend it was a battle to get Caleb to drink a whole bottle at one sitting.  He would take about 2 ounces and then refuse any more.  As a result he drank less during the day and started waking at night to get some more formula in.  This continued through Tuesday so I made him an appointment at the Dr.'s to get checked out.  The Dr. examined him and the only issue was a very red throat so poor little man just has a sore throat.

Caleb continued his poor eating schedule and night waking all week.  He'll eat food just fine but the bottle is a REAL struggle.  Hoping my poor boy starts feeling better soon!

Feeding Schedule: 5 - 6 x's per day

Another pretty good week for Caleb! He woke up Saturday and Sunday night but the rest of the week he slept all night until his 6 am wake up call. He's been putting himself to sleep pretty easily for both naps and night time.

Not much has changed in Caleb's feeding schedule - still taking 5-6 bottles averaging around 24 oz. for the day. He's on formula full time now and taking some up to 6 oz. at a time.

Age: 24 Weeks
Weight: 19 lbs 8 oz
Clothing Size: a few 3-6 months but mostly 6-9 months
Diaper Size: Pampers Cruisers Size 3
Feeding Schedule: 5 - 6 x's per day

It's been a GREAT week for Caleb! He's slept all the way through the night with the exception of Sunday where he got up once after an 8 hour stretch. Caleb is going to bed between 7:15 and 7:45 and for the most part sleeps until I wake him at 6:00 am (on work days).

Caleb took his long naps in his crib this weekend for the first time ever as well. We got a 2+ hour stretch both Saturday and Sunday at the same time as Cameron's nap time. He went down in his crib awak, fussed for a bit then put himself to sleep. He easily rolls back and forth from tummy to back to tummy which I believe has helped him sleep better.

Food continues to go well for Caleb. He now has cereal for breakfast, fruit and cereal for lunch and a veggie and cereal for dinner. He typically takes 5 bottles averaging 22-24 oz. for the day.

I'm down to pumping only twice a day and hope to pretty much be done by the beginnin gof next week. Caleb gets mixed bottles of breastmilk and formula right now - 3 oz milk to 1-2 oz. formula. Next week I'll decrease the milk ration to 2 oz. while I clear out the freezer then he'll be 100% on formula!

Cameron is 23 Months Old!

23 Months
Cameron Leigh is 23 Months Old!
Age: 23 Months
Weight: 33ish lbs
Clothing Size: 3T - 5T
Diaper Size: Pampers Cruisers size 5
Number of Teeth: 16 total
Favorite Foods: CHEESE
Favorite Toys: Books, Blocks, Minnie Mouse, Baby Doll

Cameron is still being Cameron. Apparently her teachers at school call her a diva. Not sure what warranted that but it's pretty funny. She can definitely be very stubborn when she knows what she wants...or at least what she doesn't want.

Her all time favorite food at the moment is cheese. She asks for it non stop at all times of the day. If she had her way she'd eat cheese sticks for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks.

Just a month left until Cameron's 2nd birthday! Time to start the party planning. :)
