Caleb is 4 months old. It seems like every month goes by quicker then the one before. We have desperately tried to get him to stop growing but it just isn't working. Life has been so great with this little guy and we can't imagine our lives any other way. Not much has changed since last month other then he now can roll over, so between scooting and rolling he often ends up far from where I previously laid him down. He also has started eating rice cereal with a little bit of fruit one meal a day. It wasn't something I really wanted to start but after trying to get him to take a bottle ALL day with no success, I finally caved and decided to try rice cereal. He LOVED it! His face completely lit up with glee after that first bite.

They understand each others language...

Caleb got to meet his cousin Kylie this week! Can you even tell she is almost 4 months older then him? It's been a lot of fun watching them together and their reactions to each other.

He's learning to blow bubbles.... isn't he cute?

Baby Caleb + Bumbo = Perfect Match

Needless to say, he loves the chair!

Sweet Baby Caleb!

I can't believe this sweet baby is already 3 months old! This past month has been an absolute blast!!! For those of you who didn't know weeks 3 to about 9 Caleb cried for 4-6 hours a day, nonstop. There was nothing we or anyone could do to soothe this child. Most of his crying was caused by some severe constipation issues that caused him tremendous pain and not to be able to sleep. It was absolutely emotionally and physically draining. But this last month he has started sleeping and eating on a schedule and taking naps that last more then 10 minutes. It has been absolutely FABULOUS and we are having so much fun with this little guy.

Before and After

Nathan finished his first home renovation project on Saturday. The builder, for whatever reason had cut out a "plant ledge" above the fireplace that we didn't really like. Nathan decided to fill it in and rewire everything to mount the TV. We also had to repaint because of our little fire incident so we just decided to go ahead and redo the whole family room. There are still some finishing touches like, crown molding and decorating that need to be done but overall we are very happy with the changes.

This cute little man is ready for church.

He is totally enthralled by the computer... it seriously has his complete attention when we turn it on.
