After a 8 month hiatus I am back in blog land. So much has happened with our little man during my my time away.
Caleb is going to be 21 months old next weekend. The boy continues to amaze me everyday.
He is no longer walking. He is RUNNING. Keeping up with him is a challenge.
In August the company I work for was sold and we moved to a new location. The change also meant Calebanonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18156605329363369666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156954.post-1083608326358674022004-05-03T11:18:00.000-07:002004-05-03T11:27:41.873-07:00It's Been A While
I have been very bad about updating your journal lately and feel horrible about it. So much has happened I don't even know where to begin.
On April 15 you took your first steps on your own. You are now walking everywhere and seem to love being mobile. This past wee you have mastered getting yourself up to a standing position without holding on to a table or wall.

You are finally starting to understand sign language. You know the sign for 'more' and how to use it. I am so glad they are teaching you signs at school. We have been using them at home since you were born, but I haven't been as consistant as I should be. With the teachers and other kids doing it you'll be signing like a pro in no time. anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18156605329363369666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156954.post-1077649508883337322004-02-20T07:25:00.000-08:002004-02-24T11:07:10.233-08:00My Poor Sick Baby
This has been a VERY long week for us, you have been so sick. On Sunday night I made your favorite matzoball soup for dinner and after your bath you threw up your dinner all over yourself, daddy, and your bedroom. On Monday we were home for the holiday (Presidents Day) and you just weren't yourself. Between 6am and noon you only ate 12 oz of formula.

Where has the time gone? One month from today you are going to be a year old. I can't believe how much you have changed in that short time. You have mastered pulling yourself up, crawling, and climbing stairs in the past couple weeks. You now only hold on with one hand when you stand up. I know walking is just around the corner....yikes!
You still have only 7 teeth, but I know anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18156605329363369666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156954.post-1076616523660963782004-02-12T12:08:00.000-08:002004-02-12T12:10:33.000-08:00Shameless Plug
Since some people have asked I have updated our baby registry at Babies R Us / Toys R Us to include items Caleb may want for his first birthday. Also, for clothes he'll be needing 18 month summer items. When in doubt you can never go wrong with a gift card (Toys R Us, Costco, Mervyn's, Target or Kohls). Thanks so much!

There are 6 kids in your class at daycare. Today 4 of them were out sick...yikes!!! All of them were out for different reasons ranging from RSV to vomitting. According to the teachers they have never had so many kids from one class out at the same time before. Super!!! Ahh the joys of daycare.

The state of California is proposing a bill that would allow pregnant women to park in in handicap parking spots. I wish this was available when I was pregnant, though I do think there should be conditions on it.
When I was pregnant I swelled up at 20 weeks and eventually had trouble driving and walking 1/2 a mile to my office.

You had your first job today. You did a special ad for Target that is going to be published in 'O' Magazine, Parents Magazine, and the Sunday Target ad sometime within the next 6-8 weeks.
We had a lot of fun at the shoot. You went to wardrobe and they dressed you in a white cloth diaper (over your regular diaper) with yellow pins.

The day has finally come...you can now pull yourself up. Daddy took the cushions off the couch today which seemed to really inspire you. You pulled yourself up on the base of the couch several times. Then tonight I sat you down in your crib for a few minutes and came back to find you standing there.

Tonight we went to Red Lobster for dinner. It was a lovely evening until about halfway through our meal. At that point you decided you had a need to vomit the entire contents of your stomach right at the table. I swear it looked like something straight out of a movie. I had no idea that your little body could expel that much material.

You stayed home with Daddy this morning and he is going to bring you here a little later. He just called to tell me he had you all dressed and then you had what we call an 'Exploding Diaper'. He said you pooped and the diaper just couldn't contain it. According to Daddy it went all the way up to your neck.
Daddy even had to give you a bath (his first without my help) and anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18156605329363369666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156954.post-1073439552201346942004-01-06T17:39:00.000-08:002004-01-06T17:40:24.590-08:00Doctor Visit...Getting Big
I had to take you to the doctor last night. On Sunday morning when you were taking a bath I noticed that you had a blister in your groin. That night there were two and Monday morning there were three. I made an appointment and straight after work we went to the clinic. The doctor said it could be one of two things.

You sure cleaned up in the gift department. You saw both sets of grandparents this weekend and everyone had gifts waiting for you. You have so many toys there are not enough hours in the day to play with them (I imagine you'll get even more for your birthday in a few months).

When I was a teenager I was a HUGE fan of James Dean. I had hundreds of pictures of him and saw all of his movies. Over the years my fascination faded, but it keeps on following me. Last year I learned that a diner in our town was where he had his last meal before his tragic car crash in 1955.

Well we went to Disneyland and only stayed for about an hour. You seemed to enjoy yourself, but good grief the place was packed. I'm talking you could barely move around and it was just miserable. Grandpa asked for a refund and they gave us tickets to come back again within two years. At least the day wasn't a total loss.

Mommy & Daddy went to Las Vegas for the weekend while you stayed with Grandma & Grandpa. You had a blast with them. I hear you really like Grandpa's homemade chicken soup with matzoballs.

You were still sick on Friday so Daddy and I both stayed home and took you back to the doctor. We saw a wonderful Pediatrician (I am thinking of changing to have her as your primary doctor) who ran a full blood and urine culture on you.

Yesterday at 4pm I got a call from your daycare center saying you were running a 102 degree fever. I rushed you to the pediatrician where you had a 99 degree fever (thanks to half a dose of Tylenol they gave you at school) only to be given the "when you need to see a doctor and when you don't" speech. I was just so worried you might have an ear infection.

It was a small one only 3.9, but a good first one for anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18156605329363369666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156954.post-1060813297084942692003-08-13T15:21:00.000-07:002003-08-13T15:33:25.660-07:00Cleaning House

My baby boy is five months old today. Where has the time gone? He is getting so big and mature. In the past few weeks we have had to reture our 3-6 month size clothes and jump into the 6-9 month size stuff. There were a lot of firsts this month: first vegetables, first swim in a pool (which Caleb loved), first time being sent home from school sick, and first cold (anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18156605329363369666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156954.post-1060286565328841472003-08-07T13:02:00.000-07:002003-08-07T13:02:45.340-07:00What's Up Doc!
You finished that first jar of peas on Monday night so Tuesday I decided to see if you would like carrots. I gave you a few spoonfuls and you made some funny faces. One spoonful led to another and another until the whole jar was gone. I couldn't believe it you ate a whole jar of baby food in one sitting for the very first time. I'd say that is a milestone.

You had your first taste of green peas tonight. I wish I had the camera handy because the look on your face was priceless. It was such a sour face, though you must have liked it because you ate 4 spoonfuls AFTER a big bowl of cereal. Geesh child you sure like to eat.

This morning when Daddy went to give you your bottle you surprised us both by grabbing it and holding it yourself. You held it until you were finished and Daddy had to take it out of your mouth.

Monday night daddy and I both came home from work not feeling well. It seems we have some sort of cold/flu. Yesterday I stayed home from work with you to try to rest and get this nasty thing out of my system. Problem is that being home with a baby is a fulltime job in itself so I didn't get much rest in.

I just realized its been ages since my last post. I've been back at work nearly three weeks now and I think we are finally getting into a groove. Caleb is not a morning person and hates when I wake him up at 6:20 in the AM. He really likes weekends when he can go back to his 10 hour sleep schedule.

As I have said a zillion times before...WOW!! I can't believe how fast time flies. In honor of your birthday I took down the bassinet attachment on your Pack-N-Play today.

I finished this and now am only left with the project of finishing anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18156605329363369666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156954.post-901177242003-03-04T08:09:00.000-08:002003-03-04T08:09:28.716-08:00So Close, Yet So Far

Yesterday I went to my NST appointment as scheduled. Low and behold I was 100% correct about my blood pressure. Yesterdays reading was 110/68 which happens to be the lowest it has been this entire pregnancy. I was monitored for a half hour and you were great. Your heart rate fluctuated between 137 - 179 and you moved around a lot (no hiccups this time though).

Well I have brought grumpiness to a whole new level. This weekend I have been so edgy and irritable. Everyone and everything gets on my nerves. Daddy has been quite a trooper trying to make me comfortable and happy. He took me shopping yesterday for junk food snacks and then out for a nice dinner. He is trying so hard and I really appreciate it.

Today I went for our 37 week appointment and it did not go as well as I had hoped. I knew things weren't going to go smooth when the nurse took my blood pressure and I never felt the cuff get tight when she was taking the test. She said it was slightly elevated at 140/70. I mentioned that it seemed off and that the cuff never got tight, but she said it was fine and the anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18156605329363369666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156954.post-897220002003-02-25T09:42:00.000-08:002003-02-25T09:42:49.280-08:00We Made It
Today we are officially 37 weeks into our pregnancy. This is a major milestone because if you are born today you would not be considered premature. As of today you would be classified as a full term birth. Personally I'd prefer you stay in and keep cooking for a while, but I know you will arrive when you are good and ready.

Well baby I was wrong last night when I said Monty was barking just to hear his own voice. Apparently we had a moderate earthquake (5.4) here last night and I didn't feel it. Now you will know soon enough that I don't like earthquakes at all and Daddy already knows this about me. He was sure I would be woken up by it and freak out.

I spent the afternoon at the doctors office yesterday. I lost four pound since my appointment the previous week, my blood pressure was down to 110/70 (an all time low), your heartrate was a bit high at 164 bpm, I am still measuring quite big so they sent me for another Non Stress Test (NST).

According to most books full term is defined as 37 weeks, however our hospital defines it as 36 weeks. This means if I were to go into labor now they wouldn't try to stop it. I am in no way saying I am ready for labor now because I am not. I just started maternity leave and have so much to get done around the house before you arrive.

Daddy spent the morning assembling all of your equipment. It was hysterical watching Daddy build the Pack N Play. The directions Graco provides are so bad. We actually had to call Toys'R'Us and ask for help over the phone.

Well I am now on maternity leave. It was bittersweet leaving work. For as much as that place stresses me out I am really going to miss it (up until I have to go back). Two of my co-workers indulged my most recent craving (Taco Bell tacos) for my send off lunch.

For the past couple weeks my left wrist has been hurting quite badly. I don't know why, but if I don't move it often it stiffens up and leaves me in screaming pain when I do move it again. I went through my magic drawer of wrist braces from college (old sign language injuries) and found a ton of right hand braces, but no left handed ones.

Yesterday my co-workers gave me a surprise shower at the office. I was truly shocked and a bit embarassed (I'm not a big fan of being the center of attention). We got all sorts of great gifts including the Pack N Play, video monitor, and your very own first Lakers jersey (it is adorable).

Our ultrasound appointment went quite well. I really liked the tech we had, he made sure I saw everything on the screen and explained things clearly. He said you are measuring right on track for 35 weeks and your fluid level is good. Actually he doesn't have a clue how the doctor came up with a number as high as 24.8.

Well Daddy sure chose a good appointment to come to. I expected it to be our usual quick "you're doing great" visit, but it was anything but. When the doctor measured my belly she said you are measuring quite big (four weeks ahead) and was a bit concerned with your size. She did a quick ultrasound to check the levels of amniotic fluid and said it was 24.8 (anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18156605329363369666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156954.post-887196672003-02-07T11:22:00.000-08:002003-02-07T11:22:00.433-08:00My Heart's On Fire
