And voila! Now I have a little boy. Isn't he just precious? He's so innocent still, and I wish I could keep him that way as long as possible. The other things I'd like to keep? Those chunky thighs, his cankles, and his little tiny nose, that I love to kiss, kiss, kiss. I know one day I won't be able to enjoy these things, so I take advantage of it often. 9 months has certainly moved by quickly, a week speeds past and I want to make sure I soak every bit of his sweet smile, teeny tiny teeth, his giggles when we play peek a boo, and all our little jokes that only him and I know about. However, there are moments that I wish would pass quickly, one of which is shown in the picture below. Cal has had some separation anxiety at night, and has woke up screaming many nights in the last couple of weeks. The only way he will go back to sleep is by being in our bed. I know these nights seem long, especially when he is waking up every hour to 2 hours to check and see if I'm still there, but this too will pass... right?
Not jewelry, just an amber teething necklace... hoping that will help him with the two little teeth that are trying to come in. According to the baby teeth charts, Cal was supposed to be getting his top teeth after his bottom two, but he sometimes marches to the beat of his own drum, and in this case he's getting the bottom lateral incisors (don't worry I looked it up, I didn't know that before) - which are the two next to his bottom middle two. So far, he has one that has popped up, so now he has three bottom teeth, and his smile is soo so cute.
We are now transporting Cal around in our hiking carrier, which he loves, contrary to the picture below. He can see everything around him so much better and he likes being able to help out with the chores!
See? He does like it. Here we are hiking with some friends in the Wissahickon.
Cal's cousins came to visit the other morning and we played in the backyard. Cole and Cal were uninterested.
Lastly, Cal has enjoyed exploring the kitchen while I make dinner. His latest interest is the cabinets. Enjoy.
