Things are starting to settle down around here and it seems as though Caleb has pretty much gotten past the initial round of "firsts." Caleb is generally in a pattern of eating and sleeping and messing up diapers. Unfortunately, this pattern does not lend itself to many unique picture worthy moments.

When Dad came home from work yesterday, Caleb's granddaddy was holding him and Caleb had gotten his thumb in his mouth and was sucking on it pretty good. However, noone was able to capture said thumb sucking on camera. As I previously mentioned, he is working on getting his fingers into his mouth to self-soothe when he is upset. Although his arm movements still seem pretty sporadic and uncontrolled, it appears that he is getting a little more adept at guiding his fingers into his mouth if they get close. While Dad was at work Caleb was captured in this picture sitting in Mom's lap sucking on two of his fingers. It's good to know that Caleb is starting to gain control of his movements.

Whatshername was able to capture some other really cute pictures of Caleb hanging out with his Mom that I just can't resist posting, so I hope you enjoy these extra pictures. This little grouping of pictures is great because, despite the fact that we have literally taken hundreds of pictures of Caleb, we don't have that many in which he is so wide eyed and alert.
