I always say I am going to do better on my blog, but this year I REALLY am going to work harder:)
Caleb Update- Walking, Talking, Eating Boy!
If it is carbs, he’ll eat it! He is a momma’s boy! His new favorite food is grilled cheese. He loves them! And, anything with sugar he will eat. I am praying that God will keep helping Mr. Man eat and broaden his horizons. He has tried a few pieces of a chicken nugget and meatball at school, but no veggies or fruit. So, hopefully he’ll start being brave and trying some of the new foods.
I can understand why he tries the new food at school and not my cooking though:) I have tried a few new recipes lately that were terrible. Ha.
Caleb had his appointment with Children’s last week. Unfortunately, our pediatrician believed it was a nutritional problem and not a GI problem, so he canceled our GI appointment. The nutritionist looked at Caleb and said it was for sure a GI problem. That was very frustrating. So, now we are waiting until April to get into Children’s again.
Caleb is such a happy boy. You would never know that he has digestive issues because he is always smiling or talking. So, we are thankful for that. I guess he has always had these problems, so he doesn’t know the difference. I can’t wait to figure out what causes the problems so he can be an even happier little boy!
Caleb weight 20.5LBS and was 31.5 inches tall at his last appointment, so he is growing like crazy. We are in size 3 diapers and wear 12 month clothing still. That may be because I still can’t figure out the silly kid’s sizes. Some are 12 months, 12-18 months, 18 months, who knows???
Caleb is running around the house like crazy. He is fully mobile and hardly ever crawls now. He loves to play in our pantry. He still loves riding in his car, playing in his ball pit, and riding on his Little People bus. He loves throwing balls back and forth and pushing his cars through the house. He is 100% boy.
He can now say momma, dada, ball, dog, cow, tree, book, wa-wa (water), and a few others that I am forgetting off the top of my head. He is picking up sign language too. He knows All Done, More, and Please. It is so incredibly cute when he does it.
Caleb is sleeping much better these days. They moved him to a cot at school and he knows it is nap time. He just goes right to his cot and lies down. What a sweet boy.
The other day, he ate his entire lunch at school which is totally abnormal. I asked what was different, if it was grilled cheese, etc.. Well, it was grilled cheese but the reason he ate it was because Miss Eva fed it to him. Eva, Caleb, and Xander have been buddies since they started daycare together. So, I guess Caleb has a little crush on Eva. I am glad these three have so much fun together and can keep each other entertained throughout the day.
Other than that, there isn’t anything too exciting going on at the Stevens’ house. We are looking forward to a weekend at home and catching up with friends!
I’ll try to post pictures this weekend so you can see how big Mr. Man is getting.
Have a great day!
