Milestones I forgot to mention

Tuesday, Caleb got up to sitting from being on his tummy! Catherine used to do full splits to go up and down. Caleb bends one leg while the other is straight and kind of falls over. Samuel? Too long ago to remember! Sad, but true, I don't know his particular method. So, Wednesday night I put Caleb to bed only to have him cry for a while. I went in after a bit to just make sure he had his paci and was ok. There he was, sitting up in bed and not able to get back down! Good excuse to snuggle for a while together!
Now, he's a pro at up AND down maneuvers. He's also learned how to make smacking noises and clicking sounds.
Today we had an appointment and after we were done, they had some fruit for us to munch on. I let Caleb suck on a piece of strawberry and it was so funny. He had such a big grin on his face, his eyes were closed. He had leaked in his diaper and I forgot an extra outfit. So picture this- the sun shining, the wind blowing softly, only in a diaper, sucking on a strawberry with a grin that could win the heart of the meanest person. That was how good he felt!

So cute! It's such a bitter sweet moment when they "grow" up.
