Sick . . .

Caleb and mommy have been sick this week. Nothing too serious, just colds, but they have been miserable. Nothing like a baby crying all day to drive you over the edge. Last weekend, the whole fam went to Charlotte for cousin Mira's first birthday. It was a lot of fun. Mira got to try sugar for the first time which seemed to please her. She got a lot of neat gifts. We also got to visit with Stu and Carol whom we had not seen in a while. It was nice to see them. The grands were there also and Caleb enjoyed seeing them.

Caleb's newest development is pushing things away. If he doesn't want his bottle or some other object, he will put up his hands and push it away. It's interesting to watch him learn small things like that and to realize that we really are not very instinctual creatures, but learn most of our behaviors based on our environments. Or that's what I think anyway . . .
