Days 16 and 17: Meeting Great Grandparents

September 11-12, 2010

I was lucky enough to remember 3 great-grandmothers, all of which have since passed away.  I am so glad that Caleb will have great-grandparents too!  This weekend, Caleb met his Great Nana and Papa and Great Uncle Paul.  They were all soooo excited to meet him and thought he was just perfect!  I love the pictures of when they first laid eyes on Caleb.  You just can't beat natural, un-posed smiles.

Dear Chris

Dear Chris,

While I was pregnant, someone told me that if I thought I loved you, that when Caleb was born it would be 100 times that.  They were right about the instant feeling of complete and unconditional love I felt take over me for Caleb from that very first moment.  They also said that they thought they realized they didn't love their husband once their child was born because they didn't feel for their husband the same way they felt for their child.  We both laughed about it.

I feel very lucky though.  Seeing you holding Caleb, made me love you that much more.  The way you hold him, rock him, talk to him, smile at him, kiss him....it all melts my heart.  I always knew you would be an amazing Daddy, and you have met and passed my expectations, but seeing you in action is far more overwhelming then I knew it would be.  I am blessed.  I have a wonderful husband and son.  I am so thankful that after Caleb was born, my feelings for you multiplied even more (not that I doubted those feelings in the first place).  I know that there were times when we weren't sure we'd even be parents.  And now we are.  Right in the moments that we will cherish for always.  I'm so glad that YOU are the one that has been by my side through it all.

 


I love you,
Jade

Day 12: Funny Faces

September 7, 2010
I love the funny faces Caleb makes.  He's been smiling in his sleep since he was born.  And even lets out an occasional "giggle" during his sleep.

Caleb slept the whole time.  This is his second shopping trip actually.  Doesn't he look excited?! hehe

Day 6: Doctor's Visit

September 1, 2010

How did I not take any pictures today?!  Maybe it's because we went back to the doctor for another weigh-in, Babies R Us, and then Grandma Jae's house to visit.  Caleb weighed 6 lbs, 13 oz...just 3 oz. shy of his birth weight!
