We ♥ Cal Poly

Blue Rasberries

The other day, I put Caleb down for a nap. He was sucking away and almost asleep so I left the room. After a few minutes the sucking stopped and it got quiet. After a couple minutes I could hear playful little sounds. I sneaked in and caught him doing this...


Blowing bubbles, or as I sometimes like to call them, blue rasberries. Since his naptime discovery he just can't get enough! He likes to blow bubbles all the time now. Yesterday in Church he decided it was playtime during the quietest moment right before receiving communion. He had fun smiling and blowing little bubbles at all the girls who were visiting for our Girls' Day/Night. (I'll put up those pics later! Thanks for such a great time girls! And thanks to Dave for having a boys day with Caleb.)

self soothing

Lately this is how caleb falls asleep; sucking contently on his binky and clasping both hands together while humming himself to sleep. He especially loves to hold onto his pointer finger. It is the sweetest thing to see!

p.s. don't mind the drool!

Sweet Dreams

Play time fun

this is the latest with our little guy!

Food over toys?

During Grandpa G's last visit down here he noticed Caleb might soon be ready for In-Out since Grandpa G loves In-Out. Well Grandpa G, Caleb might be ready. He was pretty excited about mom's vanilla milkshake.

I wasn't about to give it up!

Come on Dad, let me enjoy my shake!



We keep attempting to entertain Caleb with all his bright and beautiful toys. Not interested! So far he just looks at them wide eyed. Yesterday I was eating lunch and holding Caleb on my lap, I was so engrossed in my food that I almost didn't notice Caleb as he stared intently at my chip bag and then grabbed it and held on while still staring it down. (So far he just randomly grabs onto things.)

It's probably not a good sign that he was so interested in a chip bag and milkshake right? Food over toys, then again we all know how much he enjoys eating!

We had a great day in San Francisco doing the Walk for Life. There were tons of people and a lot of babies too :) Caleb did so good in his stoller all day. We did manage to capture the 'pout' though! (Nani's favorite face :)

And don't worry Nani we made sure he was oh so cuddly and warm in his bear hat from the Holtmeyers.




And lastly as much as Caleb loves to eat, he is beginning to sleep longer and go longer at night between feeds! Hurray for us. He finally managed to do some 5-6 hour stretches at night.And just when we were getting used to those glorious sleep stretches again, he decided every 2-3 hours was more fun! We haven't given up hope yet Caleb Lincoln.


Couldn't resist this kodax moment!
