Friend!

This is Nathan, Caleb's friend. Nathan knows Caleb simply as "friend." They are only 5 months apart and already get along pretty well! We can't wait until they are a little bigger so they can actually play together!

John Goodman?

I've been told Caleb looks like John Goodman. Thoughts?

Where did July go?

So July is almost gone, Caleb is almost 5 months old and I am way behind on blogging. We've been very busy this month! We started off by swimming with crazy Aunt Nancy!


Caleb got to flirt with lots of girls this month - Elise, Elizabeth and Megan. He is always a big hit!


Caleb is a master at chewing on toys, hands, blankets, noses etc! Basically anything he can get his hands on. Daddy bought him a star blanket that crinkles and squeaks, Caleb loves it!
He wore his first pair of jeans - and looks SOO handsome!!!

Caleb had his first taste of cereal! The first time he looked pretty mad about it, but after a few tries he is eating very well. Next week we'll start baby food, that should be fun!


We also took a trip to Petsmart to check out all the animals. We saw dogs, birds, fish and reptiles. Caleb liked the fish! Daddy wore Caleb in his homemade sling - he's styling!



We finally got to check out the new Lego store in Crabtree Valley Mall. It was COOL! If Mommy and Daddy had lots of money, we would have bought the Star Wars Millennium Falcon. It was awesome looking and only cost a mere $500. =) I think we enjoyed the Lego store more than Caleb, but he still thought it was pretty cool!


And our newest milestone is rolling over from back to front! Yay! I got it on video too! I was recording him trying out his new foot rattles and over he went! =)

Caleb's Four Month Well Visit

It seems like the last few months flew by! Caleb has changed so much and is much less of a blob now. =) He now: babbles, laughs, holds toys, chews toy, rolls over and the best part - can soothe himself to sleep! He is also big enough to sit in his exersaucer and play with the toys. Glen and I are loving this stage!


His 4 month check-up was great. The doctor gave us the go-ahead to start solids, but I'm not sure we're ready. I think we'll wait a few weeks.
His stats:
Weight: 16lbs, 15.5ozs (90%)
Height: 24.5 inches (35%)
Head: 43.5 centimeters (85%)

First Trip to the Park!

Caleb, Daddy and I spent some time last Sunday at Laurel Hills Park in North Raleigh. It was Caleb's first time at a park and I say it was a success! First we tried out the baby swings, then moved onto the big swings, the castle and finally the slide! It was fun being out as a family and seeing how Caleb reacted to things. I say he had fun!
