Caleb at 3 months

Caleb is already 3 months old! He seems to have grown up over night. He coos and giggles and smiles quite a bit now and he's a champ at tummy time. He still has his share of moments when he gets angry and turns bright red, which is why we call him "Caleb Waileb." Eliza has her own nickname for him. She said "Caleb" perfectly when we first brought him home, but soon after started calling him "Cay-ba." Sometimes we refer to him as "K." Either way, you may be happy to know that it's been a while since we have referred to him as "Bean."

Caleb weighs around 15 pounds. He's been in 3-6 month clothes for a couple weeks and he's sporting size 2 diapers. His head-full of hair covers his cradle cap pretty well. He seems to have blocked tear ducts like Eliza did (though hers didn't start until around 6 months old). Hopefully they will correct themselves naturally and not require the surgery that Eliza's did.

Here are some pictures from the past month!

Caleb loves taking a bath!

I had him wrapped up kind of goofy, but then he started smiling, so I had to snap a few shots. It looks like he belongs in a nativity.

Caleb is amazingly tolerant of lots of Liza love, though he often has this frightened look when he's being meddled with or descended upon.

Eliza never tires of pointing out Caleb's nose. She's been doing it for, well, three months now.

We still swaddle this little guy every night and he sleeps very well, just waking a couple times to eat. This picture highlights some crazy post-bath hair.


While he likes being swaddled, that doesn't stop him from being a sneaky escape artist.
