ONE month

Our little boy turned One month old this week!!! I can't believe that a month has already gone by, he is so much a part of this little family that it is hard to remember life without him! He is such an amazing baby! He still sleeps all but about 3-5 hours during the day and sleeps from about 10 to between 5 and 6 in the morning and then he eats again between 8 and 9. This allows us to get plenty of sleep each night which has been wonderful. He is also a wonderful little eater and has been growing like a weed. He weighed in at 9 pounds 9 ounces (37%) and he was 22 1/2 inches long (61%), no wonder all his pants fall off of him! He is very alert when he is awake and gives us lots of smiles and coos.
It has been amazing (not surprising) but just wonderful to realize that there is NO difference between Camden and Keaton and Tiana. We have been asked some if we felt any stronger connection with Camden because he wasn't adopted. We can without a moments hesitation say NO! The love that we have for Camden is no stronger, the attachment with both Keaton and Tiana was just as fast and strong. From the moment that we knew about Keaton and Tiana we had fallen in love. It doesn't matter if you have 9 months, 8 weeks or 4 days to prepare for a child.... love doesn't need extra time to develop. It doesn't matter how a child comes to be your own... we have three wonderful children that we love equally and more than words.
