5 Months

Caleb is Five Months old today! Yeah! He is so big and energetic. He is can almost sit up on his own. It can be a bit wobbly at times but he is coming right along. He loves his toys and actually complains if you take one out of his hand. I think he is about to cut a tooth. The teething rings have bedome his best friend and I think I can feel a little bit of a tooth pushing through the gums. Sweet potatoes, apples, butternut squash, and pears are on the menu now. I'm trying oatmeal cereal by itself before I start mixing it in his other foods. I have made some peas but I confess they look terrible (ugly green) and I'm just not looking forward to giving them to him. But, who knows. Caleb may love peas. If he does he will be doing better than his Mommy. I hate peas. Eowyn and Caleb are really starting to form a friendship and I swear sometimes Eowyn tries to give her toy mouse to him to play with. It will be fun to watch those two develop in their time together. Caleb continues to be the star of the family. Chris and I have gotten used to disappearing when we are around other family members. Sometimes I would like more attention but I feel so blessed that Caleb is so loved by his entire family. So, I don't complain. Caleb is such a wonderful kid. Chris and I love him beyond words. Life is so exciting now and we can't wait to see what it brings us.
