With Caleb being almost two months old, a lot has changed. We are becoming more confident each day and have learned quite a few of his many faces. We have worked hard to keep a steady routine for him and it is paying off. Evenings are still a little difficult sometimes as that seems to be when he gets fussy. He takes after his Aunt Jenny in that he will fight going to sleep at night for as long as possible. He wakes up every morning with huge smiles and is trying to talk more and more each day.
The first several weeks were certainly difficult. Learning how to take care of him has been very challenging and has required so much patience. There have been many stressful moments, many sleepless nights and many headaches. Through it all I have been completely amazed. The other day I made a sound at him and he made one back. We went back and forth for quite a while. It was so incredible. To communicate back and forth for the first time in even the strangest little sounds felt so great. I wanted to pick him up and squeeze him but I didn't want him to stop talking. This has truly been the most amazing past few weeks. To watch him learn, to see him smile and to hear him talk just melts our hearts everyday. I can't wait to see what happens next.
