Caleb smiling!
Caleb hanging out under his play gym!
This is one of the looks that just melts my mommy's heart! ;-)
Caleb at 2 months! What a CHUNKER....already 12 pounds 13 ounces! ;-)
One Cool Dude!!! Jacob loves to wear his sunglasses......
he has very sensitive blue eyes like his mommy!
Wow!!!! Where has the time gone? Jacob just turned 21 months and now Caleb is already 2 months old! He is smiling all the time and a very happy baby...I didn't know babies could be this good! If only I could get him sleeping longer at night. The last couple of nights, he decided he missed his mommy about every 90 minutes....forgot how rough that is. I swear the only reason we have more children is because God somehow helps us to forget how rough these early months are...joyous, but trying!
Jacob is doing very well! He has adjusted so well to Caleb. He loves to give him hugs and kisses but I stay very close to ward off the occasional random swing at Caleb. I cannot imagine why Jacob does this or where he learned it from. I am told that positive redirection is the most effective way to deal with this, but I keep wondering when it will sink into Jacob's head! Hopefully soon for Caleb's sake!
Jacob is talking more and more, I swear he learns several new words every day. One word he loves to say is "Eyebrows". He points out the eyebrows on Pooh every chance he gets! He has also started a very elementary form of imaginative play. The other day we pretended to take Pooh to the park where Jacob and Pooh played with rocks...of course! Jacob loves to color and does really well all by himself. He LOVES play dough. Daddy taught him how to smash the snowman that he makes for him....poor kid doesn't have a clue what a snowman is with these 70 degree Texas winter days! That's okay....we have really enjoyed going to the park and on walks most days, realizing that will come to an end in a couple of years when we head back north!
Every day that I wake up and look at my 2 beautiful babies, I am reminded of God's AWESOME love for us! I am not sure what Brian and I did to deserve these two boys, but I am so thankful and grateful to Him. Nothing that I do would be possible without His love and guidance. I pray each day that I live my life according to His will and know that he will provide me with everything I need for those tasks...whatever they may be! My babies have given me a glimpse at how much God loves me and an understanding that He will walk with us along the way and will always be there for us! What an awesome responsibility He has given me!
