2 months old....







Caleb is officially 2 months old now. Where does the time go? I have no idea. I couldn't tell you anything significant that we have accomplished as a family in the past 2 months. It's like time is flying by....again. I remember it felt like this when Luke was itty bitty too. And it still does looking at Luke and thinking "He's going to be 3!! this September, since when did I have a 3 year old??"

So at 2 months Caleb, you are:
*smiling ALL the time, at anything really. You are really loving smiling at the windows and walls these days too. But you're face really lights up when someone is talking and smiling at you too. Especially Luke.
*awake a whole lot more. And we are loving staring into those beautiful blue eyes.
*sleeping 7 hours at night!!! whoo hoo. This is a big accomplishment mommy and daddy are really proud of.
*love love love love bath time. It quiets you down in an instant.
*cooing and saying "ah goo" it is so precious to hear your sweet little voice.
*holding your head up so great. You love being carried in your baby B'Jorn facing out to see the world.
*HUGE! you are so much bigger than your brother was at this age. We are loving the rolly polly thighs everytime we change your diaper and see your legs hanging out of your onesies.
*taking 5 oz at every feeding now. And eating exactly every 3 hours during the day. Sometimes you will take 6oz at your 8am feeding. You are our chunky peanut.
*crying a lot. But we think it's because your tummy hurts from that darn reflux. But, we also think you are a pretty dramatic boy too, because you're cries aren't always that believeable.
*taking really great naps during the day too. It's always about 1.5 hours after you eat that you are ready for a nap, and wanting your bed. It's really too cute how you love to be swaddled and have your paci (and sometimes even your thumb!!) to go to sleep. And most times you really just want to be in your bed too.
You are growing up before our very eyes. We love you so much little man, and cannot even remember what life was like before you. You are completing our family. We LOVE YOU!

Hey guys, we just wanted to say Congratulations once again! Caleb is so adorable! We cannot wait to finally get to see him. Reading your blog and seeing all the things Caleb is doing already really adds to the excitement of our little one on the way. It's been so long since Aidan was a baby that I've forgotten many of the joys of having a little one around the house, so thanks for sharing a little bit of your life with us!

Love,
Matt, Amber, and Aidan

Oh sweet sweet baby boy. You don't know just how much I love you and your brother. You guys are sooo wonderful. It is so neat to watch Luke and Jayden play now and know that you will be right there with them very soon. The time goes so fast but I am so lucky to get to watch all of you boys grow. I love you all so much.
