Almost 8 months old

Caleb will be 8 months old tomorrow! I think he may be working on more teeth, but who knows..he is always drooling! He's getting better every day with eating solid foods. Before too long we'll stop doing baby food altogether. The sippy cup is a different story though. He uses one at daycare everyday for lunch time but I haven't been as good about using it at home. It's challenging to only have a few hours together at the end of the day. And as you can see in the pictures, Caleb's hair is getting really long! Pretty soon we'll need to cut it.














Happy Graduation Joey!

My brother, Joey, had a graduation party up at the "farm" last weekend. Caleb, Marshall, and I spent the night there. It was a lot of fun, Joey had friends up there plus a lot of our family members. Caleb got to visit with lots of people! He is doing well, recovering from his ear infection. He still hasn't seemed bothered by it at all. What a trooper!

Caleb and Kitty

Caleb and Kitty have been getting a long very well, lately! Caleb is always chasing after Kitty, and surprisingly Kitty isn't too bothered by it, except when Caleb grabs her tail. Caleb is also getting really good at pulling himself up and he's finally mastered finger foods. We went to see his doctor yesterday after his cough and runny nose had gotten consistently worse. Turns out he has a double ear infection! He hasn't complained one bit about it, none of the characteristic signs like pulling on his ear, not sleeping well, not eating well...he's been his normal happy self, just with a cough and gunky nose! His doctor said some kids are just like that..but it sure does make it hard to figure out what is wrong. He's on antibiotics so that should clear up everything.

Happy Mother's day!

We hope all the mothers out there enjoyed Mother's Day. We had a nice weekend. Caleb and I spent Saturday in Osakis at the farm, visiting my family. Caleb got to play outside with his aunties, he had a lot of fun. Still not sure about the grass though...

Sunday, Caleb, Marshall and I spent the day together. We went out for lunch, went shopping, and then just hung out. It was a nice, quiet day. Caleb is still pulling himself up on anything and everything and he thinks he is pretty smart when he figures something out! You can just tell by the look on his face.

Look at me standing!

Well this little monkey has figured out how to stand...he'll pull himself up on anything now! Even in the bathtub he is trying to stand up. It's getting to be kind of frustrating for this mommy! Before we know it, Caleb will be running around. What happened to our little baby?

Caleb at the farm!

Caleb and I went to Osakis last Saturday, we visited Great-Grandpa and Great-Grandma Waldvogel, met Caleb's new second cousin, Landon, and spent lots of time at the 'farm'. Caleb went on his first tractor ride with Grandpa. He wasn't too sure about it, especially the noise when it started up. It took him awhile to warm up to the idea of being outside, he hasn't spent much time out there since being born! He wasn't very fond of the grass either. Caleb had lots of fun with Grandpa,Uncle Joey, and Auntie Stephanie and he was so happy to see Grandma and Auntie Laura when they came up later in the day. Auntie Laura can always make him laugh!












































Cute jammies!!

Look at 'little Marshall' in his cute jammies!! I think he looks SO much like his dad in that first picture. Caleb is starting to get the hang of finger food. He hasn't quite developed the concept of grasping the food with his thumb and forefinger, but he'll pick it up in his hand and TRY to put it in his mouth! He'll get it one of these days!
