Oh, one more thing!

Just remembered, Caleb has officially rolled over! He did it three times this weekend. He doesn't do it all the time yet, but he definitely did it all by himself! and guess what! We're starting him on rice cereal tonight. Let's just say, after one day of 13 feedings in 14 hours I'm ready to give him a little supplement. :-)

Health, a great blessing

I just want to say how important health is to me. I've been a little sick the past few days (with a cold!!) and I almost didn't go to church yesterday because I wasn't feeling 100%. But then, I remembered how hard it was when I had no choice BUT to stay home from church because I was so sick. I decided to go. It was long, I didn't feel the greatest, Caleb got really cranky and was cranky all night because of it...but I'm glad i went.

I still don't feel the greatest today, but I'm so glad to be getting better. It helps make everything easier. I'm so happy to change a diaper because on Saturday, I could hardly pick up Caleb to get him to the changing table! I must admit, I'm a little nervous for whenever baby #2 gets put in the oven: will I be too sick to be a Mommy? But, until that happens, I'm going to enjoy each day for what it has to offer, and most of all...

I am so grateful for health and strength!

What about you? What do you treasure because of some time in your life when you didn't have it?

Guess what....More Christmas! :-)

So, here are some more pictures of that fun holiday. I've got more recent ones to upload, but these were just sitting as a draft, and I figured I'd get them up for all to see. These are some fun gifts...


This is baby Caleb wearing the Utes bib Uncle Spencer gave him. :)

And THIS is the Santa outfit Grandma and Grandpa Hart gave him. It's meant to be a hand-me-down outfit for all our kids...so much fun!

Drum roll please: this is the rocker we wanted to give him...and here it is! I was a little worried at first because he didn't seem to like to sit in it for very long, but he's starting to really like it. and an unadvertised advantage is the effect of the vibration: it makes him very regular! lol. But really, if he hasn't pooed and won't sleep because of it, we'll put him in his rocker, turn on the vibrator, which sits right below his bum, and within 10-15 mins, he's relieved! haha

Christmas: Installment 3

It's CHRISTMAS DAY!! yay! We slept in and I made some breakfast and then we started the fun stuff! We had to make sure Caleb was awake and we went through all his presents first...


This is the onesie Shalon gave Caleb at the beginning of December, so he got enjoy it all month long! It says, "All Mommy wants for Christmas is a silent night." He actually gave me that gift about a week before Christmas! So grateful. He sleeps through the night almost every night of the week! I love it! He is also wearing a hat that came with his stocking that Grandma and Grandpa Hart gave him. It says "Baby's first Christmas 2009."

Here's a close up of him. I forgot to tell y'all about his 4 month stats:
height: 27 in. (98%tile);
weight: 16 lbs 14 oz. (84%tile)
He's so big, and so healthy! We love him!!


Here's one of me and my baby Christmas morning. :-) Look at his foot. haha

Here is all three members of our little family. We are helping Caleb open his gift from Uncle Spencer: a Utah Ute onesie and bib with shoes. very cute, very nice!!

Christmas: Installment 2

More celebrations before the actual day...


When he first met her, Caleb wasn't sure of what to make of his Aunt Trisha, but they're good friends now!

We made cookies, a tradition I insisted on continuin in our little family. Well, Justin took the cake with his cookie-deocrating skills! This is his awesome santa clause...he even used piped icing!

Our great cookie collection. We delivered them to the people Justin home teaches.
