Dear Caleb,You amaze me everyday. For one, I didn't know that it was possible to love you any more and I do every time you smile at me, scrunch your nose, or even when you're naughty (because it reminds me that I have a big responsibility in raising you). I just can't help but swell with love. You've had a big month... standing independently, saying "dada", holding a bottle on your own, nodding, scrunching your nose, getting 2 more teeth (numbers 5 and 6), meeting your Great Grandma and Grandpa Hunt, and I'm sure more than I could think of. You love playing with your ball, rings, shape puzzle, toy car, and reading books (or eating them sometimes :) ) You are sleeping beautifully through the night and napping well (when not at daycare). You take 1 or 2 naps a day (mostly 2) of about 1.5-3 hours. You sleep through the night from around 7:30 pm to 7:30 am with Dad feeding you around 11pm. You are taking a bottle of between 4-8oz, 5 times a day. You wear 12 month clothes and size 3 diapers. As you move even more towards independence, I'm trying to treasure this time when you still like to cuddle before bed and touch my nose a hundred times a day. I love you and pray for your health and future everyday.
Love,
Mama
Caleb playing with his ball
First time swimming at a "real" pool
He loved it!
He didn't like his hat so much (it lasted about 1 minute). It's cute though- right!?
Hopefully I'll get some pictures from my mom of when she was here visiting. We had a really lovely time together. It was short, but it was really sweet!
thankful...
