Back Home

Well, we finally made it home on Friday. Cam passed all of his checkout appointments. He'd lost a little of his birth weight (that's normal for the first few days) and left the hospital at 7lbs 14oz (remember that number). Mom got checked out and passed her examinations with flying colors, so we were good to go.

We survived night one at home, with only a few minor meltdowns during the night, but only because baby was hungry - very hungry - and definitely let mom and dad know. And, like mom and dad, Cam tends to be an overachiever. He's been feeding ahead of the scheduled amount for his age, and produces more wet and soiled diapers than his average peer (lucky us). The diaper changing hasn't been too bad, and mom is becoming a diaper champ. (Dad does OK, but mom is much better - insert your own joke about mom being used to putting up with dad's poop...)

And now, for what everyone's been clamoring for, more pics:

Still working on cleaning up the video, that should be posted soon. Oh, about the weight he went home at, on Saturday, Cam had his first post-hospital doc's appointment, and weighed in at 8lbs 2 oz - he gained 4oz overnight. Like I've said all along, he feeds like a champ...
