The Townsend Family: Thursday September 22, 2011

I can't believe it has been over a week since I last posted. I apologize for being so long, but we have been busy around here. I am still amazed how busy I am now and I am not even working. Well, Cameron is now 5 weeks and 5 days old. He is still the best baby ever. The past 3-4 nights he has probably slept on average 5-6 hours through the night. I definitely can't complain about that. He still only really cries when he is wet or hungry. Although, some nights he gets really fussy when he is tired and it takes me awhile to get him to calm down and go to sleep. I end up checking his diaper to making sure it is dry, try feeding him, and he will usually scream, so then I know he is just tired and wants to be held and rocked. It gets frustrating sometimes, but it doesn't matter, because the next time I see him he usually just gives me a smile. This morning after sleeping 7 hours through the night it was 5am and he was wide awake and just smiled and made all kinds of noises. It just made me laugh out loud and it didn't even matter that I was still tired. To see him so happy and healthy means the world to me. I am so blessed to have him in my life and I never knew I could love anyone even Jason as much as I love Cameron.

Anyhow, this past weekend we finally got to take our boat out. We took it to the river so my dad could help us do a couple of things to it and check us both out on how to operate it and other things like that. We had a lot of fun and I am really excited to be able to enjoy it hopefully a couple more times this year if the weather cooperates and all summer next year. Cameron has not yet been on it, but we did buy him a life vest. He stayed on the big boat with grandma last weekend. All in all everything is going really well for us and I couldn't be happier. Here are some pictures I hope you all enjoy.
