A bit of an update on things around here.

It has been 4 weeks now since Camron entered our life, a lot has changed since that day but we are starting to get back to normal. Nights are still a bit rough, but getting better, he’s sleeping in 4-5 hour blocks through the night (although I’m sure I just jinxed us) up from 2-3 hours in the beginning. Cam has started cooing which is wicked cute! Ally and me have got to go on a couple of dates, thanks to Cam’s Grammy. It’s been nice to get out for a couple hours, just the two of us, although by the time we get home we do miss him a lot. I’m still easing my way back into work, Ally has two more weeks at home with him before she goes back. It’s a bittersweet feeling, we both don’t want to leave him, but at the same time it’s good to get back into our own life a bit.

Other than that we’ve been trying to resume life as usual, we’ve been trying to get out as much as possible, just going for a walk or a hike, or grocery shopping.

We gave Camron his first bath, he didn’t seem to mind it too much, I imagine the warm water felt nice and reminded him of being back in Ally’s belly. We were pretty nervous at first, but once we got him in it went much better than expected.

We’ve been practicing tummy time with him, Rusty gets concerned whenever we put him on the floor so he has to keep a close eye on things.

We didn’t make it trick-or-treating this year… but Ally and Cam went to a “new mom” group on Halloween so we dressed him up in a festive outfit.

We finished the day with a hike up Wachusett, although by the time we got there it was close to sunset so we hurried up the trail to the summit and took the road down – which is now closed to traffic, yay!

Cam’s first night hike!

Tonight we set the clocks back an hour, which means that sunset is an hour earlier, boo…
