who needs mommy? i got two hands!

Speaking of midnight feedings, last night when I was feeding Cam, he totally held his bottle all by himself! Not quite like the acrobatic-footed kid in this pic, but he held it nonetheless.

Mind you, it was a small bottle since we only give him 4 oz per feeding at night, but he grabbed it with both hands, pulled it to his mouth and when I let go he was pretty much feeding himself. I couldn't help but smile as I watched him lay in my lap while he enjoyed his milk. Both my hands were free and he just sucked it down. Mid-way through though, I think he finally realized he was doing more work than usual and let go of the bottle. So, he held it for half his feeding.

Still, it was pretty darn cute. :)
