Big Brother and Little Sis
(one of these days, our firstborn will learn to say "cheese" AND keep his eyes open...all at the same time!!!)
We took both kiddos to their well visits today....Caleb had his 2-year check up and Meredith had her 1-month check up. WOW! This last month has flown by.
They are both doing great! Healthy, growing, and happy (most of the time!)...=)
caleb...
Caleb has officially hit 3 feet....exactly 36 inches on the dot. My mom told me that my brother was 36 inches at his 2 year appointment, and he is now 6'4"....makes me curious to see how tall Caleb will eventually become! I keep joking around that, now that he is 36 inches tall, we should take him to Great America so he can ride the Whizzer!
Caleb impresses us daily with how much he is learning....as hard as it is sometimes to see our "baby" grow up, it is absolutely amazing at the same time.
meredith...
Meredith has been growing as well! She is now 9 pounds, 15 ounces (74th percentile)....she gained almost 2 1/2 pounds in her first month...yay! She is 21.5 inches long (55th percentile). While she definitely has her "moments", she is a precious baby. She sleeps great for us and is getting stronger by the day. She has been smiling for us for about the past week now....it is so fun to interact with her, and to be able to make her smile. She even smiled when Big Brother got "in her face" this morning! Love it!
This was taken of Meredith last Thursday,
when she was exactly 1 month old.
We are so thankful for our two precious children. God has really blessed us. Although being a mom isn't always easy, I can't imagine my life any other way.
Thank you, Lord.
