Carson turns 3 and Caleb 9 months
...and the best part about this milestone is at their doctor's appointment they needed NO shots. Happy kids make for a very happy Momma, and "Happy wife, happy life" I try to remind Garet of that all the time :)
Lets do a little rewind
It is amazing how much he has changed in 3 short years.
In his birthday party post I described some of the things he is doing at the age of 3, so I won't go into that again. Here are his stats from the doctor's appointment.
Weight: 39 lbs 95-97%
Length: 41 inches >97% (off the charts) = giant child
Anyone who knows my husband Garet, knows that he is super pumped about Carson being huge.
Now onto my little Caleb and compared to Carson, he is very little. Compared to the rest of the world he is average.
9 months and trying to give you a hug!
Length: 28 1/4 inches (50%)
Weight: 20 lbs 6 ounces (50%)
Clothes: 12 months
Diapers: Size 4...we have finally stopped going up so quickly.
Sleeping: 11 hours at night with a morning and afternoon nap that last anywhere between an hour or 2 hours.
Food: He gets to nurse twice a day but has officially started taking Two 8 ounce formula bottles. Along with that he is eating stage 3 baby food and anything else I let him eat. New things that we have tried are: cheer-ios, macaroni and cheese, french fries, Ritz crackers, bread, re-fried beans and Mexican rice. He is not a picky eater and is very content in his high chair, especially sitting next to brother.
Activity: Crawling EVERYWHERE, pulling up on everything and cruising, banging toys together or against hard surfaces (making music), and the newest funniest thing is hitting balls with a bat or golf club. He sees brother do it all the time so he crawls around sits on his rump and swings away. It really is the funniest thing I have seen him do. Something else new that I haven't mentioned in any other posts is his babbling. He is trying more and more to talk and is really starting to make some correct noises. No words yet, but we will get there soon enough.
Other Random things: 2 official teeth and working on the top two (slobber monster). Not too cranky with the teething process. Continues to love his paci, but isn't obsessed with it. Sometimes at night he will throw it out of his crib, then get upset he doesn't have it. He will learn :) He also continues to be so loving and cuddly. I am a hard Momma with Carson and I am really afraid that Caleb is going to try to take advantage and butter me up when he gets old enough to figure that out. Only a few more months until the big 1 and he will get his first taste of cake, cookies, ice cream, all of the good/bad things for you!
Here is the prop month pic of my little man...
He is hinting to his Daddy and uncles that he is ready to go fishing!
