Quick Update

Yesterday I had to take Caleb to the doctor. Thursday night he was running a slight fever (100 on the dot), had some serious congestion, and didn't sleep AT ALL! We were up with him every 15-20 minutes (no exaggeration there). Anyway, all day Friday he was fussy and still very congested. So off to the doctor we went. Everything is fine, he just has a very bad cold. The doctor gave us some suggestions to help him sleep better, so we'll see if it works. The news is that Caleb now weighs 15 pounds and 12 ounces. That means he has gained 1 pound 8 ounces in about a month! YAHOO! I know that might seem lame to some of you parents out there, but please remember Caleb's reflux issue! I was so excited. He also did all of his "tricks" for the doctor (sitting up, rolling, etc.) and she was impressed how well he was sitting up independently (I, of course, agreed. He is very smart!).

Last weekend we also started veggies!!! So far Caleb has had carrots and green beans. I don't think he loves either. Below is a carrot pic.

Sorry to hear that Caleb is sick :( It sucks to be up all night for mommy and daddy too! I'm glad to hear that he gained weight though! Logan went to the doctor on Friday and he weighed 10.8, which was up as well. Get some rest!

If that is a pic of the baby not loving food then you all have a super happy baby!
