We laid low today. Maybe tomorrow we’ll go do something.Highlights of the day:
A walk around the neighborhood in Cam’s new stroller.
- Cameron has figured out how to pull himself up to standing in his crib, and he’s quite proud!
- When we were rolling the ball back and forth he would catch it (that’s not new) and then release it to send it back to Brent. He doesn’t have the whole “roll it back” motion yet, but he released it and tapped it to go back. We’ll see if it recurs again tomorrow.
- Bath #4 went well. He bathed by himself in the turtle tub without any problems. He really enjoyed splashing.
Non-highlight of the day:
Brent has been feeling ill again. He thought he was coming down with another cold (and maybe he is) and his stomach has been bothering him all day. Well, shortly after Cam went down for the night, Brent started vomiting. We think it’s food poisoning, though we don’t know what the culprit is. Cam was very disturbed by what was going on (things are pretty easy to hear in a small apt) and he was very concerned about Daddy. I got Brent situated and then got Cam situated. It’s safe to say that we’re all ready to go home.

Poor Brent. This may come to be known as the Kazakh Weight Loss Trip rather than the Bring Cameron Home Trip. Ice chips, rice, ice chips, asprin and more ice chips and crackers, if you can find them. You are dehydrated if you pinch your skin and it doesn't go back to normal. Hugs to all ( it is safe from here)! Love, Mom
Maybe he just wants to sleep with his Mommy & Daddy? We found the family bed to be quite wonderful for all of us. Makes the "wake up and comfort/check diaper" sleep interruptions less disruptive. In fact, I got to where I could change a diaper in minimal light in less than two minutes!
When I was pregnant, Heather told me to go ahead and make all those decisions and plans I was so sure and confident of, but be sure to know that I would likely be changing my mind about some of them once I had the real deal. She was SO right. It's a lot different having that little person right there, depending totally on you to make all the right choices. And no Mulligans :)
You two look like you are doing an excellent job; Cam is looking so happy in the pics, it's hard to believe he's having tooth miseries.
Hope you are feeling better Brent. It's no fun being sick, especially when you are so far from home. Thinking of you all - Frances
From Lake Tahoe. One of the features of our location is the WIFI which has allowed us to keep up with your progress. Speedy and permanent recovery, Brent. Cam is looking great. His smile, his inquisitiveness, and his composure in the tub show how well he is getting along. Thanks again for your work that goes into this blog. The pictures are great and the commentary is always interesting. dick
