Water baby...well, not quite yet

We took Caleb for his first swim! We weren't sure what to expect.

Here he is getting ready to go with daddy. "What kind of crazy hat are they making me wear?"
We dipped in the toes...a little apprehensive...

Then a little deeper...getting concerned...

Then a little more...tensing up...frowny face...

Ok, enough!
Ok, so maybe he's not a water baby yet. We stripped him down and he chilled on the chair with me while David did a few laps. I'm sure he'll be splashing around with daddy soon enough. :)

Big eyes!

Maybe I have a child that scares easily. Or maybe he's just sensitive to noises right now. But whenever he hears something - ice crushing from the fridge, pots and pans going in the kitchen, or even mom making raspberries - I get this face:


Mr. Wide Eyes. Actually, I don't know if this accurately captures how big his eyes really get. It's funny. At least he doesn't start crying!

Other things Caleb has been doing these days: giggling, squealing, reaching for his feet, getting his knees up under his butt like he's trying to crawl, clasping his hands together, blowing spit bubbles, looking and smiling at himself in the mirror, sleeping a little better, and he's rolled over from belly to back three times so far. What an active little man!
