Cameron's Adventures: Spring is in the Air!

Today we got the first taste of spring...I think the temp. was around 50 this afternoon! We took Cameron to his favorite park. He had fun running around and exploring. I was surprised he didn't want to swing or play on the gyms much, he was just having fun running around. I have a feeling he's going to be wild this summer...but I'm sure we will have lots of fun, I can't wait!

I haven't posted in a while...our days have been pretty uneventful. Cameron has been keeping me busy with Dr.'s appt.'s and sleeping difficulties! He went to the ear dr. last week - hopefully we resolved his ear issues and was prescribed Prevacid last week also for what we hope is just GERD. He has to take it for 8 weeks and hopefully it will resolve itself, if not we have to go to another specialist. As far as sleeping, I'm not sure what happened, but Cameron now freaks out when I leave the room when I put him down for a nap or bedtime. So I lay next to him on the floor and rub his leg. It's really pretty pathetic how he has me wrapped around his finger! He will slam his legs on the crib, stick them through the rails, etc. until I give in. I'm not sure how we are going to break this one. I tried today and he got so worked up that I had to take him out of his crib and rock him and I held him for 2 hours while he slept. Each time I attempted to put him down he would wake up. I really wanted him to sleep because he was such a crab, so I just held him, but I know I shouldn't be doing this. So I guess he got rid of his paci but now he needs his mommy instead. So I've been really tired. The nap time doesn't bother me as much because I usually need a nap too and I'll fall asleep, but I just don't get anything done anymore! Last week, I was in his room until 11 for 2 or 3 nights. By 11 I'm so exhausted and I have to get up at 4 the next morning. I don't see it getting better any time soon since he will be transitioning into a bed, but maybe he'll do better than I think. We want to keep him in his crib for as long as possible, but he's started stacking his pillow, his lightning mcqueen pillow and whatever else he has to have in his crib that day, and then stands on it all and climbs like a little monkey. So hopefully he doesn't climb out, but that's usually when it's time to switch to a bed! Mom is not ready for that!
