Caleb: three months

Beautiful boy, you are three months old. It's hard for me to believe we've stared your face only 103 days because I swear I've been looking at you my entire life.

You have the sweetest, laid-back personality. You love to just take everything in and smile every time someone looks at you. For that reasons, you are veeeery distracting in Bible study and a charmer in the preschool hallway.

Daddy doesn't believe me but you laughed for the first time last week. No one witnessed it because Daddy was playing basketball and Madeline was asleep but you laughed for me. A big, deep, slow belly laugh. It was pretty fantastic.

You especially are entertained whenever Madeline is around. You love her and throw her some of your biggest smiles. My prayer is that you two are always friends and each other's greatest allies.
My little chunk, you weigh 13 pounds, 10 ounces and that's because you still love to eat every three hours. Without fail, I can know what time it is based on when you are calling for a meal.

You started having cooing conversations with us and those are the best. I could sit and coo with you all day. I can't wait to find out what you're thinking and if you're anything like your sister, when that day comes, I'll always know what you're thinking because you'll always share it.

Two weeks ago, we plopped you in the bumbo seat and you are super happy in it.
We sure love you but...dude. You are one high maintenance baby. You and I have gone to doctors more times in the last two months than I think we went during our entire pregnancy. You've already managed to do several things your big sister still hasn't done. 

Like, stay in the hospital. Get an ear infection. Get a sleep study. Get sleep apnea monitor.

Way to stand out, little dude.You know how to hold your own.

Whenever I need to give you a dose of medicine, my heart breaks for you because you never know if it's coming to your mouth, nose or eyes. At night, we call you our robot baby because of the cords coming out of your pajamas.
Your daddy and I laugh out loud every time we look at this photo. You just crack us up all the time.

Turtle, I still can't believe you're my baby. You are my baby boy and we love you to the moon and back.

Nope, I don't believe it. It's impossible. There is just NO way he's three months already. However, I do believe he is just stinkin' adorable.

Either way, he is soooo adorable!
