"The Caleb Man!"

Yes that is what we call him! Im not sure how that happened but it has become his nickname. Even Ryan calls him that. Caleb is getting so big! We just had to upgrade him into a new car seat because I could no longer carry him around in his seat! It was just too heavy and I actually found out at the dr that I actually had enjured myself! I dont remember what the dr called it but he said I basically pulled something out of socket (which is apparently very easy to do) between my breasts. Those of you medical people can inform of the name. He said it would take 6-8 weeks to heal without lifting anything however I will be lifting anyway because I have 3 kids under 3 1/2! Owell I will be fine. I just cant hold Caleb on my chest that is when it hurts most. Anyway, that story told to convey how heafty this boy has become! He is 3 1/2 months old these days and weighs over 15 lbs. He is moving into 6-9 months clothing because of his belly but his arms and legs are way to short for that size! He is also no wearing size 3 diapers at night just like his sister Bekah!
He has starting to giggle and is very ticklish! I absolutely love his smile and it is very contagious! He has developed an absolute love for his sisters. He always smiles when they come near him. Caleb has been such a joy to nurse! I think because he is already on a very regular schedule, sleeps 10 hrs at night, and eats efficiently! I never enjoyed nursing Bekah and Ryan was okay but so hard to figure out what I was doing being my first time. But with Caleb I actually thought to myself, "Wow I only have 9 months left!" It kind of made me sad, but I know Ill be ready by then. Ive had a terrible fear of getting pregnant again on accident and not being able to finish nursing him. Silly I know. But Im tyring to convey how much Ive enjoyed it this time around! At 4 months I usually start on cereal but with Caleb I plan to wait if he is still thriving and sleeping so well. What is the point when life is easier without it still. We'll see how long he holds out! Caleb loves his bumbo and his play mat. I must say he also loves Dora time: sitting on the couch with his sisters watching Dora! I think he's taking lessons from Swiper! I think that will be the only way he survives with 2 big sisters! haha! Anyway, we love, love, love our "little man!"

3 months old!
