Hanging with Caleb

Everyone is anxious to see more pictures of our growing little boy who weighs 12 pounds. I can't believe it has been almost 7 weeks ago that he was born. Everyday it is getting better and better with our routine. I am now on a happy pill to help with my depression and anxiety. So things are slowly getting better for me. This was taken this morning. I decided to try my mother's trick of putting Caleb in the stroller on the main level to sleep. He doesn't want his bed during the day and is getting sick of the swing & bouncey seat. All last week, he wanted to sleep in my arms.

Parker took this photo of Caleb and I was very impressed that he did such a good job.

Caleb was getting excited sitting on our bed looking at Parker and Mommy

I love it that he is starting to coo and get excited towards us. He is finally becoming a little person.

Another sweet picture that Parker took of Caleb and Mommy. Caleb's hair has red highlights and in this picture our hair color looks almost the same. I wonder what his eyes and hair will change to this year.

My silly Parker and more pics of Caleb

Parker had fun taking photos this week. Some of them are very interesting takes of the furniture and walls around the house. He thinks it is really fun to see them come on the screen after he takes the picture. This is one of the good pictures that he got of Caleb and me kissing.

Another sweet sleeping picture taken a few weeks ago when Grandma Gwen was visiting.

Silly Parker. He loves making all kinds of faces at us to laugh and is looking forward to showing Caleb his silly faces. Right now he does them at Caleb, but Caleb doesn't see them yet or understand that they are funny.

Star Wars has become a new passion for Parker. Here he is posing for me in costume as Darth Vader.

Another one with his light saber. Boys and their swords.

Some more pictures

I am trying to remember to take more pictures of Caleb. With the first we constantly took pictures and with Caleb, sometimes it is hard to take them with everything going on in the household. So yesterday I decided to get more pictures of Caleb and see if I could sneak some shots of Parker as well. Caleb is starting to enjoy his play mat and looking at the toys hanging above his head. He will just kick his little legs and coo for us on the mat.

Sleeping peacefully.

Giving me a little smile.

My two boys together. This is very hard to get a decent picture of both boys looking at the camera.

Fireworks

Last week Parker and Daddy set off Fireworks a few nights in a row. Parker was really into it this year and really enjoyed the sparklers as well. So one night while Caleb was done for the night, I was able to go outside and take a few photos. Parker running away from the fireworks and covering his ears.

Sitting in the garage while they go off.

WOW look at that Firework. Pretty!!

Acid Reflux

Our precious Caleb has silent acid reflux really bad. We thought Parker's was bad with the constant spitting up. Caleb just screams, arches his back, hiccups a lot, trys to burp and you can hear the gurgle in his throat from coming up. We finally got him on medicine on Thursday, but it still hasn't kick in yet. I sure hope that we have some peace here soon. Our nerves are on edge with the crying and Parker is being a real trooper to us having to tend to Caleb.
So please pray that relief is near for Caleb and us :) Here is one of the those moments that I love to watch. Caleb sleeping peacefully.

Parker was anxious to feed his brother, so is a picture of them.
