Weeks 23 & 24

Big boy now sits in his high chair for meals and just loves it! It is close to a window, so he can look out and see what's going on or plays with toys on his tray while "suppy" is being prepared.

Waiting patiently for his cereal

As of 5.26.07, he is eating Stage 2 baby food. Unlike Jake, he is not picky...doesn't particularly care for peaches, but he will at least eat them!

He is not quite in the habit of rolling over, but tries to turn himself sideways while on his back. He loves to be in a sitting position...he even went onto his belly last week! In his crib, he turned himself completely around.

I have still been getting up with him about twice a night either to nurse or change a "poo" diaper. The last two nights though, he has gone to bed around 10:30 and slept through until 7 a.m.


It has been hot the last couple of days and the air conditioners are not in yest, so I decided to put Kaleb in the shower with me on an "off" bath night to cool down. I started the shower up and he cried..but calmed down as soon as we got in. He laughed as I put him under the shower head.

Spit Happens

I mentioned Kaleb loves to blow raspberries...

I am 5 months old!!

These photos were taken Saturday (a day shy of 5 mo)...K just hanging out.
The picture taken below was from Sunday while on his play mat. And guess what...on his belly, he rolled over to his back while he was on our bed. Yes only once, a fluke maybe, but it happened. Happy 5 months! Kaleb went to Jake's classmates birthday party...he loved watching the kids and enjoyed the cool breeze and watching the leaves on the trees. Hannah's Mom held him for a bit and then he looked at me and cried.

Tuesday, big brother decided he was going to bite me. When asked why, Jake couldn't explain it. I didn't cry! Just wait, I am almost as big as you!!


Kaleb's 22 week picture was taken with Jake and is on the family page.

His sleeping schedule has been the same for the past couple of weeks. Eating about the same- I think I will introduce fruit tomorrow (he has had all stage 1 veggies). He nurses around 4 a.m. and won't want to eat again until around 9 a.m. He has been blowing lots of "raspberries" and shrieks too. He laughed a "ha ha" this weekend also. He constantly wiggles his feet still (like Daddy). He has been spending lots of time outside- Grammy brings his swing outside before it gets real warm and loves the wind hitting his face (he sticks his tongue out).

Weeks 20 & 21

Bebe getting big! Still happy! Kaleb's schedule is changing a bit in that he has been going down for his last nap after 7 pm, which moves his bed time to after 10 pm! We are adjusting though.

Kaleb has tried peas, carrots, sweet potatoes, and squash. He enjoys them all (no surprise). He makes a ton of "mmm..mmmm....mmmm" noises while he eats and gets a bit upset if the food doesn't come fast enough. He has rice cereal for lunch and a veggie for dinner. Because he is on food, his belly has "slimmed" down a bit. He seems a lot longer too!

He loves to watch Todd and Jakob. He laughs so much at Jakob when he acts silly. What a little cuddle bug! He likes to nuzzle in my neck and also rests his head on your shoulder and plays shy.
