Caleb weighs 20 lbs 12 oz (50th percentile) and is 29 inches tall (75th percentile)!
Caleb is wearing 9 month onesies and 12 month PJ’s! The boy has some long legs! He’s still wearing size 3 diapers.
He’s doing really well with his pincer grip, and is so proud when he feeds himself!
Caleb’s started to eat bits of banana , cooked carrots, pieces of wheat bread, and has tried some cooked beets in Babtcha’s borscht!
Caleb has 6 teeth!! He’s been a little bit more irritable with these teeth, but we really can’t complain!
Caleb takes 2 naps a day, anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 hours. However, he’s really been fighting them lately!
He goes to bed between 8:30 and 9:00 and sleeps until 6:00 or 7:00am. We think his sleep schedule has been thrown for a loop because of his teething.

Caleb is still on the boob juice! Haha! (I’m trying so hard to go a whole year for him!) He has five 4.5 oz bottles a day. We’ve tried to give him more at each feeding, but he’s a grazer like his Mommy!
Caleb likes to shake his head no! A lot of the time he does it when people ask him questions! We’re trying to teach him how to nod yes!
He loves to stand and pulls himself up on everything! He enjoys stepping on his toys, and has even stood on his own for about 10 seconds!
He’s been ok with separation anxiety, and has only cried once when Erik and I left for a dinner out. Grandma said he was laughing within minutes and was fine!

Once in a while, when he’s sleeping, he still tucks his thumb in between his index and middle fingers, like he used to as a newborn.
When he wakes up in the morning he’s either sitting or standing up in his crib!
Caleb’s latest nicknames are Goomba, Dude-o, handsome dude, Dee Dee Dee, and still Booboosh!
Caleb is very quick at crawling!
Caleb loves his baths!! He splashes around like crazy, and doesn’t mind water all over his face!
He has started to protest when we say no, like when he’s rolling over during diaper changes or making a beeline for the dog bowls! He screams out with a big smile on his face, like he knows he shouldn’t be doing those things!

Caleb smiles all the time! When you smile at him he smiles back right away. Lately when he smiles he closes his eyes, scrunches up his nose, shows his teeth, and breathes in and out of his teeth! It’s hilarious! He knows it cracks us up!

He waves his hands in front of his face when he’s full, and has swatted away his spoon a few times.
Caleb has the prettiest blue eyes, and very blond hair!
He is pretty good at having his nails cut. I do have to sing to him the whole time, but it could be a lot worse!

Caleb loves to hold onto our ears when he’s falling asleep.
His finger has discovered two little holes on his face!

Caleb’s gotten really good at clapping his hands. He won’t do it when we want him to, but he does it randomly when he’s playing! Very cute!
He’s become more interested in hearing us read his books. We can tell he pays more attention to what we’re reading and sits still a little bit more!

Caleb gives great hugs! When I get home from work, he hugs me really tight, wiggles his body against mine, and shrieks!

He has great babbling moments, and usually says DaDi DaDi Dadi and Bababa over and over again!
When he hears music, he’s started to bop up and down!

We love our little guy so much!! We had a wonderful Christmas with him, and are really trying to cherish every little moment with him! We can't believe we'll be celebrating his 1st birthday in just a few months! This Momma's already starting the party planning :o)
