It's too bad I didn't think of that sooner! Caleb had a blast.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1iMcy7LggvBG3wHxCsS4_ZNgzkfBe-yw0Lqh12qrFG3wSQSYtG5jdYEYLYh8rU0oyfyuTfiOmah2EbgPOMeTYnK6HN8wF2-r4-vR6Yt3tzzJHvU-8ziojjmxcQzz5n_D_RrcwTIYnu80/s1600-h/020.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440537325513804498" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1iMcy7LggvBG3wHxCsS4_ZNgzkfBe-yw0Lqh12qrFG3wSQSYtG5jdYEYLYh8rU0oyfyuTfiOmah2EbgPOMeTYnK6HN8wF2-r4-vR6Yt3tzzJHvU-8ziojjmxcQzz5n_D_RrcwTIYnu80/s320/020.JPG" /></a><br /><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsGc7k3FLNWRQ8vIY1VjYih6mODJieqYsKvri2NhH-WbaW__50CpBO7scPVBDDkcFXBwAh06yxIgvxyFUS-o6_hbsP7b995bfj2dTze3tyfiyg1TlM7uk5hhLL57BM_el0OgE2v1HN69c/s1600-h/025.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440537317336903490" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsGc7k3FLNWRQ8vIY1VjYih6mODJieqYsKvri2NhH-WbaW__50CpBO7scPVBDDkcFXBwAh06yxIgvxyFUS-o6_hbsP7b995bfj2dTze3tyfiyg1TlM7uk5hhLL57BM_el0OgE2v1HN69c/s320/025.JPG" /></a> playing with my dirty sock...good thing it was my sock and not Joel's!<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmymmGd7nYfvG1QA_3pFjV-9iYxaMYSjp0CGC0M-mWg1pfbpzg8_CtaM7Fy4Kvcn_mGOqnAFpt6xi9kQ55NaD-CyW2d2IpIu36JuUo2vF7d7Wi8SuCcuE9U46aNmLNVD1Cmxw90Ojnj58/s1600-h/026.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440537309547527666" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmymmGd7nYfvG1QA_3pFjV-9iYxaMYSjp0CGC0M-mWg1pfbpzg8_CtaM7Fy4Kvcn_mGOqnAFpt6xi9kQ55NaD-CyW2d2IpIu36JuUo2vF7d7Wi8SuCcuE9U46aNmLNVD1Cmxw90Ojnj58/s320/026.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWr6M28he1U0_jIubBHBg63-4E0-nPH58K3DWkUaPrSyBJMJF7avK4gJiyb5c1WMJkCor_0gd2vk1-PLLMA0q7AeKNJQIjb470QWbKBe9t9qeSLuYZ4MNxFSInvduj7y0vuYl8UxaTocc/s1600-h/028.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440537302374212930" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWr6M28he1U0_jIubBHBg63-4E0-nPH58K3DWkUaPrSyBJMJF7avK4gJiyb5c1WMJkCor_0gd2vk1-PLLMA0q7AeKNJQIjb470QWbKBe9t9qeSLuYZ4MNxFSInvduj7y0vuYl8UxaTocc/s320/028.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjn7mAPQdOJ-pigufr5gBVI-pJ9UBnmxQqNs9KjirKytUGBi6WKoss4cCJW0zktXV4IoeJQbmi8o4HYWNZ1YuWehFuCTP2jWqvno6tXgMZ6J7v9nN7pR3-uMYa4ZrFbWhHIO_NCIk9A3-8/s1600-h/031.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5440537291545928802" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjn7mAPQdOJ-pigufr5gBVI-pJ9UBnmxQqNs9KjirKytUGBi6WKoss4cCJW0zktXV4IoeJQbmi8o4HYWNZ1YuWehFuCTP2jWqvno6tXgMZ6J7v9nN7pR3-uMYa4ZrFbWhHIO_NCIk9A3-8/s320/031.JPG" /></a> </div></div></div></div>Joel, Laurie, and Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08541691164999061935noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6291901187024731060.post-62545849853118961872010-02-13T10:00:00.003-06:002010-02-13T21:30:26.547-06:00Future Football StarWell, you can tell that blogging more regularly was not one of my goals for the new year! Since I'm so behind, I decided to jump in where we are for now rather than trying to play catch-up. Caleb discovered Joel's football the other day and had fun playing with it, which of course thrilled Joel. :) However, with Caleb's weight being in the second percentile for his age, we're trying not to base our retirement plans on his NFL career.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi61R_ihSNlVWeUYIbzfsYAiqxt32t_NCdI93uHC7q1VKerAgiAtjEOM-x8wKlopRL71JI9W8e0pdCq99byz4locifODb4N-2_1a3qjTi9klHyDeZmBfOY4vMfUyHvnmVE6Bb3idIZkSV4/s1600-h/043.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437759925085695154" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi61R_ihSNlVWeUYIbzfsYAiqxt32t_NCdI93uHC7q1VKerAgiAtjEOM-x8wKlopRL71JI9W8e0pdCq99byz4locifODb4N-2_1a3qjTi9klHyDeZmBfOY4vMfUyHvnmVE6Bb3idIZkSV4/s320/043.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu-5-W5UTwBwtfbcwjIc-kBtXQwkMlhCls6JwGQopaVeywpT5kQZc0IvaUYAEDJmk0rn_EsLdqO_SxwtcOi4QbLzD8v-bbc-vQngCjC5SfNOeSLorL1hSiEj-LdRjT63IG69kN48Dykts/s1600-h/042.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437759916016265410" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu-5-W5UTwBwtfbcwjIc-kBtXQwkMlhCls6JwGQopaVeywpT5kQZc0IvaUYAEDJmk0rn_EsLdqO_SxwtcOi4QbLzD8v-bbc-vQngCjC5SfNOeSLorL1hSiEj-LdRjT63IG69kN48Dykts/s320/042.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR4Ctgl_9SZznNh4eKQVhm2Z3PpXeo7v43CLuzUZO8qwpgEa1ch8lq7dnr5z5Wa7pEhZ_GHHj_UXpLt-JIhFHYiTgqBG_68vYqXseOHWC5uFumY_0HJH5HmrSL7LEzsWM22-UCeLI_Vls/s1600-h/040.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437759908639071730" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR4Ctgl_9SZznNh4eKQVhm2Z3PpXeo7v43CLuzUZO8qwpgEa1ch8lq7dnr5z5Wa7pEhZ_GHHj_UXpLt-JIhFHYiTgqBG_68vYqXseOHWC5uFumY_0HJH5HmrSL7LEzsWM22-UCeLI_Vls/s320/040.JPG" /></a> </div></div>Joel, Laurie, and Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08541691164999061935noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6291901187024731060.post-70028872980856404122009-12-23T12:56:00.002-06:002009-12-23T12:59:08.163-06:00All I want for Christmas is...my first tooth!This past Sunday (Dec. 20), Caleb was a little fussy in the afternoon. That's not unusual on a Sunday afternoon after missing his morning nap, but he had been drooling even more than usual lately, so Joel did a little exploration. Lo and behold, Caleb has his first tooth! It is on the bottom left. One of my friends wanted me to get a picture of it, but I don't think that will be happening anytime soon. We can barely get his tongue out of the way long enough to get a glimpse of it ourselves. :) But it's there! Our baby boy is growing up so fast! We're enjoying all those gummy grins while we can.Joel, Laurie, and Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08541691164999061935noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6291901187024731060.post-64739056457307039702009-12-19T21:02:00.003-06:002009-12-19T21:15:04.184-06:00Lots of Animals (a.k.a., I'm really behind!)For the past several years, our friends the Hammers have come over to our house for Halloween. They even came last year when we were out of town! They help us set up some little games in our garage, and Joel and Shawn make balloon animals. While the kids are waiting for their balloons, Shawn hands the adults big hundred dollar bill tracts. One mother told me this year that her kids have remembered our house all year and asked repeatedly to come back! We are so grateful to the Hammers for helping us be a blessing to our neighbors. I didn't get any pictures of the actual event, but here are a few of Caleb's first Halloween and three out of the four adorable Hammer children.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7qGBqDo3QhaaCYXUYT97bDmVMpbTLGOKSxUbAs31sA49Yhti6D_iL8JC1r1FFV8w4OXF3FXZK98gPyC0Rj1OSV13u20_ygNgL3S7nTRBXdU49JtuKwt940IsxfiAjTzfHK65l0DEJsRI/s1600-h/Caleb+745.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

Caleb has been crawling for a week now. We've thought for quite a while that he was getting close, and then last Tuesday (the day after he turned 9 months), he finally "got" it and has been moving ever since! We are charging the video camera so that we can capture some of the action, and I plan to post it on here if I can figure out how. :) We haven't been taking many pictures lately, but I do have a few I need to post soon. For now, it's time to sign in to work!Joel, Laurie, and Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08541691164999061935noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6291901187024731060.post-87673668216722064142009-11-29T21:55:00.003-06:002009-11-29T22:12:44.678-06:00First FoodWe delayed starting Caleb on solid foods until after we returned from our trip to SC, and so he was 7-1/2 months old before he had his first taste of anything from a spoon. It's been quite a battle! He's tried rice cereal, oatmeal, sweet potatoes, pears, applesauce, and bananas. So far, the only thing he's eaten more than a spoonful of is applesauce. The first picture is the "Before" pic from the first day. After I uploaded the pictures, I realized that he's wearing a different shirt in the "After" picture, so that must be from the second day! Oh well! It takes so long to upload pics on here that I'm not going to worry about it.

We decided to try doing them outside this time. It ended up being a muggy, buggy, muddy day after Austin FINALLY got some rain...not very pleasant. Perhaps that's part of the reason why Caleb didn't cooperate very well for the pictures! But Rachel still managed to get some good ones.

I have known Amy since we were both around 11 or 12 years old. She attended college at CIU, so Joel has the privilege of knowing her, as well. Amy has battled two types of leukemia in the past six years and is now doing very well after a bone marrow transplant. She is an incredibly strong, godly woman and was a radiantly beautiful bride!<br /><br />Caleb did not attend the wedding due to his propensity for making loud noises at inappropriate times :), but he did come to the reception with us. He now wants to be part of whatever we are doing and is always reaching for things. (I had him in the Bjorn with me today while I was grocery shopping, and he kept grabbing the list and ended up tearing one of my coupons! He also kept trying to "help" push the cart.) Anyway, he was pretty interested in the "champagne" for the toast. No, he didn't really drink it. :)<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtwL9JcIiTfK0UjK1U02UWM2aZfaQroOGtQuYDbXbCQnhVbIqXpjfRUKdpKrkJx-9OwLBnyM7hb59o89NLQ0suOM3eN6W1AnsdiWd7eHP443R6h4-ZeHX2oexFvmpOYma6RXryLzv5Vgo/s1600-h/Caleb+Wedding.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384156614018988466" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgtwL9JcIiTfK0UjK1U02UWM2aZfaQroOGtQuYDbXbCQnhVbIqXpjfRUKdpKrkJx-9OwLBnyM7hb59o89NLQ0suOM3eN6W1AnsdiWd7eHP443R6h4-ZeHX2oexFvmpOYma6RXryLzv5Vgo/s320/Caleb+Wedding.jpg" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizzR29HJj5UtqMlfhkOZedRcTxMjbUcX5a6EgoVHjKiJJwm9CL0ZV7vJZmVdRW_EfYWD1H2Aea7eRDwmoleRCZAV7o5bmAIPzgJhqq-NbeMVdqRua98lUi-HXFKCTu0JUh7kMMcreQQk0/s1600-h/Caleb+Wedding+2.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384156279085900642" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizzR29HJj5UtqMlfhkOZedRcTxMjbUcX5a6EgoVHjKiJJwm9CL0ZV7vJZmVdRW_EfYWD1H2Aea7eRDwmoleRCZAV7o5bmAIPzgJhqq-NbeMVdqRua98lUi-HXFKCTu0JUh7kMMcreQQk0/s320/Caleb+Wedding+2.jpg" /></a> </div><div>I wish I had more pictures to share, as I loved seeing Caleb in big boy clothes rather than the onesies that usually make most sense for him to wear.

He went to the doctor a few days ago, and so I wanted to post his latest "stats." He is now 15.44 pounds, which puts him in the 13th percentile for weight. He is 26.5 inches long, which means he is in the 52nd percentile for height. Lastly, his head circumference is 16.5 inches, which is in the 8th percentile. Like both his parents, he evidently has a small head! At six months, this is what Caleb is like:<br /><br />He is starting to become more aware of the world around him and will reach for objects (like Ranger). He likes it when Ranger licks him, which we think is precious. If we have him in the living room while the TV is on, he is very persistent about wanting to turn his head and watch it!<br /><br />Everything goes in his mouth, of course. Joel and I have both had the pleasure of having our noses gummed by Caleb. He just opens his mouth wide and leans forward and closes down on whatever happens to be in the path. He almost managed to get a mouthful of Ranger's fur recently. :)<br /><br />He is obsessed with his feet. I've only seen him actually put his feet in his mouth once, but he loves holding onto them.<br /><br />I recently bought a Johnny Jumper for him at a garage sale, and he LOVES it! He bounces all over the place. Even when he gets tired and starts crying, it's hard to get him out because he won't stop bouncing! Here is the only picture I could find of him in the jumper. We took a video a few weeks ago, and I need to figure out how to get that on here.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYkmQF4fyS1TjL8df4vBppyrhb7DKzd6mJI4I1AjueQE1Z6RX99WuPbdRUQqjLp5wXYU6EtSnVgid8GRXTyMNCFRYQkadZzaiahxnPQbux9TXiSBYyEnK6ghZP8JZ_qwLzHn3U0-m1ypE/s1600-h/Caleb+001.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381112015236534386" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYkmQF4fyS1TjL8df4vBppyrhb7DKzd6mJI4I1AjueQE1Z6RX99WuPbdRUQqjLp5wXYU6EtSnVgid8GRXTyMNCFRYQkadZzaiahxnPQbux9TXiSBYyEnK6ghZP8JZ_qwLzHn3U0-m1ypE/s320/Caleb+001.JPG" /></a><br />Caleb is a chatterbox! He likes to make noise, and it's not unusual for him to wake up from a nap and just lay in there cooing and talking for a while.<br /><br />He's ticklish! He smiles when I give him raspberries or pretend to eat his neck, but he laughs hysterically when Joel does it. I think it's Joel's facial hair...at least that's what I'm telling myself so I don't feel bad! Caleb seems to be a Daddy's boy.<br /><br /><br />That's probably more than anyone wants to know! We are just loving our sweet little boy!Joel, Laurie, and Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08541691164999061935noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6291901187024731060.post-89878266784121067542009-09-11T16:15:00.002-05:002009-09-11T16:26:12.830-05:00Good NewsWe had a follow-up appointment with the neurologist this past Wednesday to discuss the results of Caleb's tests. He told us that the vision test revealed no brain response to visual stimuli. We expressed our surprise at those results, since Caleb is now reaching for objects and seems to track things with his eyes and respond to us. After examining Caleb himself, the neurologist concluded that the test must have been wrong. He said he was pretty concerned about Caleb a few months ago but feels much better now. Yay! Praise God! We will continue to follow up with the neurologist and eye doctor, but it's definitely great to hear good news. :)Joel, Laurie, and Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08541691164999061935noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6291901187024731060.post-63670894308619864112009-09-10T19:37:00.004-05:002009-09-10T20:02:53.446-05:00Pink and BlueCaleb turned six months old this past Monday, September 7 (Labor Day- appropriate enough!). In honor of his half-birthday, I decided it was time we got a few pictures of me with the little guy. And of course, Ranger made his way into some of the pictures, too. :)<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhamZ8wL6_7l3XDxOn03IBmdmtwriJjI-7ai46BoWYyNSXHULwEtr-MdNjt5v43D0xK1UsrJ6xvtAKWFeBFm3j-yLgZRWob1cZujvFbZdq3ms0KiGx6oizO7t17LaxKKZrTy01F8I-TqVQ/s1600-h/Caleb+004.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380007734026812018" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhamZ8wL6_7l3XDxOn03IBmdmtwriJjI-7ai46BoWYyNSXHULwEtr-MdNjt5v43D0xK1UsrJ6xvtAKWFeBFm3j-yLgZRWob1cZujvFbZdq3ms0KiGx6oizO7t17LaxKKZrTy01F8I-TqVQ/s320/Caleb+004.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsfhdLK9Jafhxky50v3PV2af_nnd84fUbhk-Q0IWldbaGO5rB4DTyJnYGLQjQEz1qG9a2DVXx0Bh2V036mQLYSeKrB2J_5MTUnLRgVdQDcR-95mcC11U0goBXX46cS4ua_CCpuCO8jPyY/s1600-h/Caleb+005.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380007728455932626" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsfhdLK9Jafhxky50v3PV2af_nnd84fUbhk-Q0IWldbaGO5rB4DTyJnYGLQjQEz1qG9a2DVXx0Bh2V036mQLYSeKrB2J_5MTUnLRgVdQDcR-95mcC11U0goBXX46cS4ua_CCpuCO8jPyY/s320/Caleb+005.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhM01pcI9bUEU0rnrW6c3L2_uUG9jYquzNHYnLKWqcHhmMqcnd7eLTrM8WYfzHzUYE4CEoiPBypyHat5WlOBcImOkVVr-K1NBmdT8IkRZZr9cEw3jF6uQF3p1nU-NP9HdTWvGy_yZVKazY/s1600-h/Caleb+006.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380005123687892594" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhM01pcI9bUEU0rnrW6c3L2_uUG9jYquzNHYnLKWqcHhmMqcnd7eLTrM8WYfzHzUYE4CEoiPBypyHat5WlOBcImOkVVr-K1NBmdT8IkRZZr9cEw3jF6uQF3p1nU-NP9HdTWvGy_yZVKazY/s320/Caleb+006.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLJbV8XS4Tt89_T_tNIdtH56hjU94SWSwp2sMGKT0EeszYubKJHXwM2wqy7yZkXw7HBAj5Sz56K3hV217MhpxGoeAkl3UiOZdLDeB-QwQ7A-t9hMjinbi6DcYFDroVvNt0YKCeNJDkKrk/s1600-h/Caleb+009.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380005112344093090" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLJbV8XS4Tt89_T_tNIdtH56hjU94SWSwp2sMGKT0EeszYubKJHXwM2wqy7yZkXw7HBAj5Sz56K3hV217MhpxGoeAkl3UiOZdLDeB-QwQ7A-t9hMjinbi6DcYFDroVvNt0YKCeNJDkKrk/s320/Caleb+009.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrEyxaQ-uYm4Sy38GcvSzdNntvrh1l4o_LAD9YOLOVTjVe9S63R6KGQvZbBMJ7JysxLmRXyI3aaalIUaO2pvaqr4B6TRv9FoumEKBfuHTia_n154ECIICMkxmyUArW__Nwgt1YjVz-BFM/s1600-h/Caleb+015.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380005105851447874" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrEyxaQ-uYm4Sy38GcvSzdNntvrh1l4o_LAD9YOLOVTjVe9S63R6KGQvZbBMJ7JysxLmRXyI3aaalIUaO2pvaqr4B6TRv9FoumEKBfuHTia_n154ECIICMkxmyUArW__Nwgt1YjVz-BFM/s320/Caleb+015.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWi2O1NTHFsIejGaZ9dEqsn1dHzAnRUVZe6lVQZpZGSMeQn1YiHc-fF8CeUOur0FgZoTVkKHKzJJOZBv6dbHpON-W3f8D9gZoYd-Jg0VxFSIWBwbzFJX12hLq3jlJhGm83lHThGekUH18/s1600-h/Caleb+016.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380005096437467506" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWi2O1NTHFsIejGaZ9dEqsn1dHzAnRUVZe6lVQZpZGSMeQn1YiHc-fF8CeUOur0FgZoTVkKHKzJJOZBv6dbHpON-W3f8D9gZoYd-Jg0VxFSIWBwbzFJX12hLq3jlJhGm83lHThGekUH18/s320/Caleb+016.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCbDTtmJpxUSzd0d5lbc61q3WEl7QtyP9dpVe2Gz0NdOWaot4Sa0Q6Iqe6t7-ZKTIQv905AQCum-mthHNW59kkwRoSLnT6FLfXbQWkP09XLICUHJQ2xTbjtnopuobgBSOPKMW7pouk6a8/s1600-h/Caleb+022.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380005086321142258" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCbDTtmJpxUSzd0d5lbc61q3WEl7QtyP9dpVe2Gz0NdOWaot4Sa0Q6Iqe6t7-ZKTIQv905AQCum-mthHNW59kkwRoSLnT6FLfXbQWkP09XLICUHJQ2xTbjtnopuobgBSOPKMW7pouk6a8/s320/Caleb+022.JPG" /></a> </div></div></div></div></div></div>Joel, Laurie, and Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08541691164999061935noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6291901187024731060.post-4729260044740686692009-08-30T19:05:00.004-05:002009-08-30T19:39:29.332-05:00Caleb, Daddy, and RangerI've been pretty lax about taking pictures lately. When I went to upload the pics I do have today, I realized that almost all of them were of some combination of Caleb, Joel, and Ranger. Caleb is starting to become more aware of Ranger lately, which is a lot of fun. He sometimes smiles when Ranger licks him, and he will occasionally reach out to touch Ranger.

It is amazing to us how quickly time is passing. In the last week or so, it is almost as if someone has flipped a switch. Caleb seems much more aware of his surroundings, and his muscle tone even seems to have improved dramatically. He is sitting with less assistance and doing less of the bobble-head thing. When I was reading a book to him yesterday, he reached out and grabbed it! He is also discovering how loudly he can squeal...and believe me, it's loud! It is so much fun to see him grow. Unfortunately, all theses changes have also come with sleep interruption. He hasn't been sleeping well at night or napping well during the day. This could make things interesting, as I rely on him napping well during the mornings so I can get some sleep after working at night. We'll see how it goes this week!<br /><br />Here are some current pictures taken just yesterday of our little man.<br /><br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5368048336789296370" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLYTrhMgN4TfVxiXSm6n-eXCx_6BnszMDILL2XimGbspIqIpYkmwUu4nH_lWPdET-fT76ThIawxOrSOiY80epbU6UUd41Ai74rFltvYQ2gc1CzRG0ZBFY2LQ1h8ZfvlmvRRQ_kjJctosM/s320/080.JPG" /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoUfcqEnBm7v8cna5xlYsn2DGjygTifG_GHXTC7nLfuCr7JjUnADqAHuJLC2Q8Db7dDArH0yrVl5rCCL0OeVXY4_4Cux22gkFjTQdianjB495_kSaKHyAqr0rVR52Fzrkl45yJfxgaHIo/s1600-h/061.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5368048330733016626" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoUfcqEnBm7v8cna5xlYsn2DGjygTifG_GHXTC7nLfuCr7JjUnADqAHuJLC2Q8Db7dDArH0yrVl5rCCL0OeVXY4_4Cux22gkFjTQdianjB495_kSaKHyAqr0rVR52Fzrkl45yJfxgaHIo/s320/061.JPG" /></a><br /><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJyemtkCg8ihVln1KmOBNQJs1lQdRg5nULHqtNKllcuanU2dxcMPWHsJzS7_XxK4gbpzh6f1LvuVpkEm4gwNjPijLXXMhVRID3CRG3pSbl-I3zlWM1uFQLyZsCHMfLdqun5oZCoIN7_W8/s1600-h/063.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5368048318213031042" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJyemtkCg8ihVln1KmOBNQJs1lQdRg5nULHqtNKllcuanU2dxcMPWHsJzS7_XxK4gbpzh6f1LvuVpkEm4gwNjPijLXXMhVRID3CRG3pSbl-I3zlWM1uFQLyZsCHMfLdqun5oZCoIN7_W8/s320/063.JPG" /></a> just chillin' with Daddy<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdmtjBtDvpELj2knlqsZN4ceWmvjp1c8N6gME-t_2cIMkpE31eV3ayKqbJtFaSOZwDDp_avMirJhXNGmBw2NRlyF9162-wT7FdjnptdICaUKzhinZ6OkdydiwMqsNv7SU5f1yM5-2Aj7k/s1600-h/085.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 280px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5368048313282987170" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdmtjBtDvpELj2knlqsZN4ceWmvjp1c8N6gME-t_2cIMkpE31eV3ayKqbJtFaSOZwDDp_avMirJhXNGmBw2NRlyF9162-wT7FdjnptdICaUKzhinZ6OkdydiwMqsNv7SU5f1yM5-2Aj7k/s320/085.JPG" /></a>We finally got him to smile, but not before he'd drooled on himself. :) The boy is a drool factory these days! <div></div></div></div>Joel, Laurie, and Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08541691164999061935noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6291901187024731060.post-75456999454481339552009-08-08T22:19:00.002-05:002009-08-08T22:22:10.398-05:00ObsessedI'm slightly obsessed with how cute Caleb is in his towel after a bath.

It was not quite as exciting as Backyard Bible Club last year, when we found out we were expecting a baby. :) It was still a lot of fun, though, and we're praying that God will continue to use us in the lives of our neighbors. True to form, I forgot to take many pictures. I think these were taken during the old favorite, "Father Abraham."<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLRDgJdolwyKZojRz-YiaffMc11RhvJOOzwD0Jh1tOsog8oqdLM21d7qFkBdJLfUMIPI69fMEmJx_jynEWkiD3EmvYvzJqBanLeFG8uDGOC1y6arSHbNEFDNt70zGN_uuuLL7udjpMNCE/s1600-h/001.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5367796681940379378" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLRDgJdolwyKZojRz-YiaffMc11RhvJOOzwD0Jh1tOsog8oqdLM21d7qFkBdJLfUMIPI69fMEmJx_jynEWkiD3EmvYvzJqBanLeFG8uDGOC1y6arSHbNEFDNt70zGN_uuuLL7udjpMNCE/s320/001.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpAXYSnaWJ37r6SI9trUXXVXTr3-iaAdZhSVGjeSRRtp7eT8kuxjx0MGF74-WcEbH-8cK_E7Y1wHuqXzXsgVvIZo2yv_DWSbDCo5L2slkLpsMMA3uOr3-Cl9wP9MlnXKhL7KLYuCCY054/s1600-h/002.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5367796679607592946" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpAXYSnaWJ37r6SI9trUXXVXTr3-iaAdZhSVGjeSRRtp7eT8kuxjx0MGF74-WcEbH-8cK_E7Y1wHuqXzXsgVvIZo2yv_DWSbDCo5L2slkLpsMMA3uOr3-Cl9wP9MlnXKhL7KLYuCCY054/s320/002.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFvZDDPMOlQ_lVrBF3AUWIGYHIiF2bBUOZ6uWfIM-WPioXdMTPJok-3FhfESjAMzwtIcrGnaRbPn2G_M7etgmwychyphenhyphenm2ERIx-__yXJh5z6ADSBMTMGpRhWvZ6XP4ycsXJgRg-7qdJJ6vU/s1600-h/003.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5367796674200707698" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFvZDDPMOlQ_lVrBF3AUWIGYHIiF2bBUOZ6uWfIM-WPioXdMTPJok-3FhfESjAMzwtIcrGnaRbPn2G_M7etgmwychyphenhyphenm2ERIx-__yXJh5z6ADSBMTMGpRhWvZ6XP4ycsXJgRg-7qdJJ6vU/s320/003.JPG" /></a> </div></div>Joel, Laurie, and Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08541691164999061935noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6291901187024731060.post-21121559818798279382009-07-24T15:05:00.002-05:002009-07-24T15:14:48.154-05:00Numbers GameCaleb had his official 4-month doctor's appointment this week, even though he is actually now 4-1/2 months old. It's hard to believe how quickly he is growing up! We were curious to know how much he has grown, and here it is:<br /><br />Height: 25 inches (approximately 38th percentile)<br />Weight: 14 pounds, 6 ounces (approximately 27th percentile)<br />Head Circumference: 16.25 inches (approximately 16th percentile)<br /><br />He has definitely changed from when he was in the 5th and 10th percentiles shortly after birth! We were kind of surprised about the head circumference, as his head seems so huge to us! But I guess all babies have big heads in proportion to their bodies. :)<br /><br />He has started to occasionally grab at things, most frequently my hair! He always seems to have a few strands wrapped around his hands. He is spending more time awake now and enjoys his swing and pack 'n' play. He talks to himself and is learning to blow bubbles, which is so adorable. He drools like crazy and is getting the hang of sucking on his thumb, although sometimes he seems to prefer the whole fist. He laughs when we undress him (future nudist on our hands?) and sometimes when we move his limbs to "dance." We think he is the most precious boy on the planet! I will have to take some more pictures to post soon!Joel, Laurie, and Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08541691164999061935noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6291901187024731060.post-40555936533828093892009-07-10T17:32:00.005-05:002009-07-10T18:06:31.403-05:00Official Three-Month PicturesMy sweet friend Rachel came over a couple of weeks ago to take Caleb's three-month pictures.

We visited a church that morning, and it got out earlier than we expected. We were meeting my parents for lunch, so we decided we would just drive to the restaurant and I would feed Caleb in the car rather than wasting the gas to drive home first. I was holding him in my lap finishing up his feeding when he decided to fill his diaper. Somehow, he was able to poop all over my lap and barely even get any on himself! I had an extra outfit for Caleb, but of course hadn't thought to bring anything to replace my light gray dress pants. So I cleaned up with baby wipes the best I could and tried to hold my purse in such a way as to hide the spots. Of course, while we were waiting for a table, I saw a guy I went to high school with whom I hadn't seen in years! Then we saw half a dozen other people we knew! I just had to laugh.</div>Joel, Laurie, and Calebhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08541691164999061935noreply@blogger.com0
