Back a Few Steps

Christmas came and went. I definately realize that I love Christmas again with a child. When I was young there would be that excitement I had for Christmas. The anticipation of presents, the anxiety of Christmas Morning, and the purity of tradition. I hadn't felt those things until this year and Cam isn't even one year old. He of course will not remember anything and I honestly couldn't tell you that he even was excited about the wrapping paper. However I will officially say he was crawling by Christmas. A memory I will never forget.

Cry Cry Cry

I love my little boy. As I sit here at 2:19am waiting for him to stop crying and just fall asleep it breaks my heart. He has been crying for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. It sounds like he is almost done. My heart is so weak that I'm trying to distract myself until that time of slumber.

His new thing is standing up. He's nine months old now and he loves to show off his new talent. As soon as you lay him in his crib he will instantly stand up and hold out his arms for you to pick him up. My issue....Is he'll stand there forever.

My excuse for why he doesn't yet sleep through the night on a regulay basis. He's been sick for the past two weeks and I've had to hold him and comfort him. And that fact is why he broke the habbit of what I had gotten used to.

Sleep is an amazing thing. The more I receive...the more I love my little baby.
