Caleb is so much fun now. He is laughing which is just adorable. He rolled over on Memorial Day from his back to his front several times...but now he won't do it again. Nick says that he just wanted to prove that he could do it and doesn't feel the need to do it anymore. He loves his big sister so much. He was actually reaching out to hug her tonight. They are just precious together. The steroid cream that the doctor gave us for his head worked really well. It is totally cleared up now. I am still waiting for him to sleep all the way through the night but I guess that will happen soon enough. I figure I will get a good nights sleep after they grow up and leave the house!
Angie is now in a twin bed. She has hit a growth spurt recently and we realized that she was just too big for her toddler bed. She absolutely LOVES her new big girl bed. We had to buy new bedding and therefore we redid her room. It is now PINK (thanks to her daddy). We are hoping that by reiterating that she is a big girl now, we will get her more interested in the potty. She has used it a couple of times but nothing consistent. I would love for her to be totally potty trained by the time we go to Disney this fall but I am trying not to worry about it too much. I guess it will happen when it happens!
Caleb had his check-up today. He is quite the big boy now. He is 16 lbs 6 oz (80th percentile) and 26 and 1/4 in long (90th percentile). The doctor thinks he's doing great. He does have eczema though but its mostly on his head. I have to get a steriod cream for it and hopefully that will clear it up. Angie had the same thing on her head but hers wasn't has severe has his is. If it doesn't clear up, he'll have to see a pediatric dermatologist. Dr. Clements thinks he is teething but it will probably be weeks or even a couple of months before it breaks through. He of course charmed the pants off of everyone. He was so happy while we were there, until the shots of course. He seems to grow and change every day. He is just the best baby. He loves to watch his sister and standing is his absolute favorite. He loves for us to hold his hands and let him stand. I have a feeling that once he's mobile there will be no stopping him.
Angie gave me the best mother's day present yesterday. I was sitting in the recliner and she climbed up in my lap and gave me a big hug. It was just the right gift. She always seems to know when I need a hug or a snuggle.
I just wanted to do a quick post to tell all of my fellow mothers out there...HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!! I have a friend who just had a baby 2 weeks ago and I am so happy for her to have her first mother's day. Then on the other end of the spectrum, my Nana will celebrate her 63rd mother's day. I love that no matter how long we have been mothers, we all get to celebrate together on one day. I hope all the Mommies have a GREAT day tomorrow!! By the way, Angie is in that belly.
(Caleb has a check up on Monday so I'll post new kid info then)
