Changes

I've thought about it and here it is. I'd really like to be able to update this blog more often than i do but it's almost impossible to do and have pics to go along with the stories of Caleb Carter. Sooooooooo, what i'm going to do is blog shorter posts more frequently. I will try to post as many pictures as i can especially of milestones or anything else he's doing, but i can't promise that it will happen every time. He keeps us very busy especially now that he's so mobile. On that note, he's got another tooth to go along with another ear infection. Saturday morning was rough. He was screaming in pain and i could do nothing to help him aside from a little Motrin, which did help. What an awful sound that cry was. If i never hear that cry again it'll be the happiest just fine. Luckily he's a strong little guy and spent the rest of the weekend much better. Playing and being Caleb Carter. He's drooling like a mad man. There's drool everywhere. I've never seen him drool like that before. He's got more teeth on the way which i guess means more ear infections, hopefully i'm wrong.


He's also sleeping through the night. HALLELUJAH!!!! He doesn't wake up to eat anymore, which means less bottles for us to make - HALLELUJAH!!!!!! again! He does wake up at least once in the middle of the night. I go in there, he sees me, grabs his blankie and goes right back to sleep. How am i feeling? GREAT! He goes to bed at 9:30. Wakes up at 6:30 and actually just stays in his crib playing quietly. I went in there this morning because my alarm clock woke me up, otherwise he would've kept playing. What a lucky mom i am. What a beautiful boy i have. So now i just take him into our room and play with him for an hour. We laugh, he stands, ignores crawling, and we just have fun. Then we get ready for Day care. He's still crying when i leave but i've been told that as soon as i leave he's fine. I don't know if i should be happy or offended. Nevertheless, i'm just glad he stops crying.

One last thing. Recently i've been told that Caleb's taking on a little bit of his father's looks. Of course i choose not to see it because he mostly looks like me. His dad is handsome, yes, but i could show you some baby pictures of me and you wouldn't doubt his looking like me for a bit, but i won't, or maybe i will, but not on this post. Anyway, you be the judge. He definitely has his father's expressions and he's looking like Stephen (his big brother) a bit too. By the way, Stephen looks very much like Ernest. Ok, so here's a pic of Caleb looking like his brother who's looking like Ernest. Enjoy!
