Great news! Camryn has become a non colicky, beautiful, charming baby girl. She naps in a bed (3 1/2 hours today) and is sometimes even very easy to put to sleep. If she wakes during the nap (which does happen 2-3 times), we just have to give her back her pacifier and she goes back to sleep. We looked back at her worst times and figured it was after Erika ate something with soy. However, dairy is still a major problem also. Camryn smiles a lot now and enjoys looking at her mobile (which is actually the one Uncle Don bought Mason).
She loves her baths, but hates being cold and wet afterwards; she does scream bloody murder while we try to get her dressed.
The angel is asleep in our bed. When she was colicky we were so desperate for her to sleep, and for sleep ourselves, that Erika and her slept in bed together, and we haven't tried to break the habit. For Camryn's safety Kevin sleeps in the guest bedroom. Camryn sleeps so well in that bed we just decided to keep her there for naps also. She likes to fall asleep on your chest or while nursing, and you can't really do that in a crib. Soon we'll see if she'll sleep in the crib at night and maybe still nap in our bed.
And not to forget about Mason, he's still a wonderful big brother. He's mindful to be quiet when we're putting Camryn to sleep. He's had a fever and runny nose for three days now, we suspect he has the H1N1 flu (it's going around like crazy here in Tucson), but his energy is great so we're not worried. His fever actually broke today. We've tried to keep him separated from Camryn and we all wash our hands a lot.
