Cal has had an interesting week that seemed to be a growth spurt (?) At least I hope. He was eating every hour and a half during the day and he had a few late nights of going to bed around 10:30pm and 11pm and then sleeping in until 10am, all the while waking up at 2:30am and 6am. He was going to bed around 8-9pm which was manageable but we need to be kept on our toes every once in awhile right? I am pleased to say that the last two nights he was in bed around 9 and even fell asleep on his own in his crib with his pacifier. So way to go big boy!
This week he also learned that he has hands! He loves to clasp them together and puts them in his mouth any chance he can get. He is starting to reach for his toys and can grab on every once in awhile. My favorite is when he holds onto my hand when he is falling asleep during a nap. The picture below shows him hanging onto my necklace during a nap. He's such a little sweetie.
More faces for your enjoyment! He can be a real smiley guy when he's not stuck in his serious mode.
With the cold mornings lately I have resorted to using the car seat cover so everything is covered except his little face. Can you find him?
More walks in the Wissahickon this week with the moms from Mom's group. The picture below is from today when Cal boycotted all carriers and strollers so I had to carry him for about a half hour. Rachel took this picture of the little guy taking a snooze.
Such a fun group - I'm so blessed by these women.
Cal's Halloween costume will make an appearance next week... Made by me...he doesn't have a choice when he has a crafty Mom. :)
