"Brendan's Paleontologist Show"


Our boy sure knows and loves his dinosaurs. He often corrects my pronunciation when we read and I stumble over the long names. In this video Brendan narrates his own "show."

Milestones

Caleb is growing so quickly, both physically and developmentally. At our 2 mo. Doctor's appointment he weighed over 14 lbs.! He's so chubby and has rolls upon rolls on his legs-- I absolutely love it! He reminds me of a little cherub spreading love where ever he goes.

He smiles all of the time and has recently started to grab things on his own. Caleb is a total Mama's boy. He could be screaming for one person and then Mom picks him up and he stops immediately. While Mom loves the attachment it is a challenge to feel like there is never a break. Bottle feeding has been damn near impossible but we are trying so Mom and Dad can have a much needed date night.

Caleb is strong for a little guy. He's been able to support his head for some time now and has a super grip. We've been introducing him to the crib which is now in the same room as Brendan's big bed. He still sleeps mostly in the bassinet in our room during the night.






Caleb responds to music and has a pretty calm and relaxed demeanor most of the time. After over-working myself and having baby along at work with me, I cut back on the work hours for everyone's benefit. We've taken him everywhere in in 3 short month's he's been to an amusement park, the children's museum, movie theater, library, stores, a couple birthday parties, his grandparents homes and great-grandparents home, and out showing homes w/ Mom.
