| Huh? What spit bubbles? |
Cameron's two month checkup went well yesterday.
Although he's not packing on the pounds as quickly as Shelby did, he's more than doubled his birth weight to a healthy 12 lbs. 8 oz. He's 23 inches tall and looking cute.
He had his first round of vaccinations and took it in stride. Turns out he really likes the flavor of cherry Tylenol, so that made up for the shots!
I know vaccinations are a pretty polarizing issue, and I'm all about parents making whatever choice is right for their own kids. I'm very much on the pro-vaccinations side. I'm grateful to have access to good healthcare that can provide them. I love our doctor and her nurses. They take care of us and always have sweet things to say about the kiddos. That will instantly get someone on my good side!

I hate sounding anything but cool, calm, and collected as a mom, but I can't hide it - having two kids is hard! I'm trying to get it figured out. I feel like my days consist of constantly deciding which child to neglect for a moment. Can I get an amen from any parents, or am I alone here? Anyway, I'm lucky to have two awesome and very patient little ones. I love Shelby and Cameron so much and I'm doing my best to be the mom they deserve.

I hear people say you either have a hard time going from 1-2, or 2-3. I definitely have had a very hard time going from 1-2. It's WORK having two little ones to take care of. I say it's harder than twins, because you have a baby, and a BIGGER baby. haha. But what do I know. I'm sure someone with twins would smack me. ;)
Cameron is ADORABLE. I love the spit bubbles.
Wow! Two months already. And yes! Having two kids is hard, especially when one of them is newborn with so many feeding/changing/holding needs. It seemed like my older child would always get into trouble or messes as soon as I sat down to nurse the baby. But you are an awesome mom. Shelby and Cameron are lucky to have you!
I'm glad to hear that you can be realistic about having two kids! Yes, it's hard, but it does get easier in some ways. You love your kids and do your best. That's all you can do! Oh yeah, and then pray and you should be good! hope you're doing well! Maybe our kiddies can meet up one of these days...
Cameron is looking so adorable! What a big guy.
Gah! Now I'm nervous about what's in store for me this September! :/ I'll pray for you if you pray for me! ;)
Love the spit bubbles, he gets that from his dad (who used to be a world class drooler). And anytime you change the dynamics of your family, it's going to be hard. You just don't remember how different it was going from 0 to 1, and now you've added another one.
It comes in waves, some days are good, and some are not so good. Some days you find a great balance between both kids, the house, yourself, and Tom, and other days the TV is on a lot and you're eating leftovers for dinner :) You'll get there, cut yourself some slack, the kids will survive, and won't remember whether or not you played with them every day.
I'll give you that AMEN!
