Six Weeks

I can’t believe that Cale is six-weeks-old already!  He is so sweet!

With all of our holiday celebrations and activities, I failed to post a one-month update for Cale.  So here’s a catch-up.

Cale is now 23 1/2” long.  I don’t have scales at home, so I don’t know how much he weighs.

He sleeps about six hours at a time at night, getting up just once to eat.  During the day, he naps for two to three hours at a time and is awake for about an hour and half in between naps.  During this time he eats, plays on his play mat, swings and plays with Claire.

He loves sucking his thumb and loves pacifiers (very different from his sister).  He has started grabbing onto everything within reach.  He loves the play mat and the toys that hang on it – especially his monkey.

His first month of life was extremely busy.  He made trips to the park, the pediatrician, church, restaurants, the mall, etc.  He also made his first trip out-of-town.  We went to Tulsa for Christmas, and he got to meet a lot of family and some family friends.

He is very calm and sweet.  He’s extremely cuddly and loves to snuggle and be held.  He cries only when hungry or needing to be changed.  And he has the cutest smile!  He is such a sweet baby!

Here’s a video we took of him playing on his play mat.  Love that smile!!!

Cale’s two-month check-up is scheduled for the morning of January 30th.  I’ll have an update on his weight and height measurements then.
