1 Month

My, how things change in a month! This first month of Caleb's life flew by, and he's changed a lot. I got to celebrate my birthday at the beginning of this month. (Yes, I know I look tired, the reason is in my arms) Hannah helped with the cake.
Speaking of Hannah, she has been a great big sister and a big help to me. She loves to help, and will get (clean) diapers, pacifiers, burp cloths, etc. She is having a hard time sharing Daddy and tries to climb in his lap whenever he's got Caleb. Or, she'll ask me to hold Caleb so she can play with Daddy. Hopefully she'll get used to sharing soon.
Here's what we know about Caleb at 1 month:
He is a good eater, just look at those cheeks! And he's already over 10 pounds

His favorite thing to look at is the ceiling fan, any one in the house will do

He loves to hear his sister's voice and will turn his head looking for her when she is close

The only time he likes sleeping on his back is when he's swaddled at night, otherwise he wants to be held or on his tummy
He is in a pretty fussy phase. I'm am trying to be careful with my diet, cutting back on dairy (boo), no broccoli and minimal caffeine (which would really come in handy these days). Some days have been difficult, and I just remind myself that each day past brings me one day closer to sleeping through the night, and hopefully less upset tummy. I'm also fighting off a little cold right now. So, if you think of it, please pray for me. I could use a little extra energy right now.
