Snoozing Snugly

As I said yesterday, there are days where we have itchy trigger fingers and take lots of pictures of Caleb. On the other hand, we are starting to get into a bit of a routine and there are days that feel "normal" where we don't take a lot of pictures. We go about our day and nothing extraordinary happens that makes us think to get the camera out. Sometimes it is hard to post on those days because there is little material to choose from.

Today was one of those days. We ate dinner shortly after Dad got home, then the three of us spent some time together on the bed hanging out with Caleb laying in between Mom and Dad while talked to him and admired him. But mostly, Caleb ate tonight. So there were few opportunities to get a good picture of him.

So I decided to take this picture which I snapped just a few minutes ago. I thought I would share this picture with you becuase this is Caleb has been sleeping lately. A LOT! He is cradled in Mom's arm between Mom's body and the couch.

Caleb has a nice bassinet to sleep in which his Grandaddy slept in when he was a baby. The problem is, Caleb rarely sleeps in the bassinet. He wants to be close to Mom and has to be in a very deep sleep before he will go down in the bassinet without protest. I know that this arrangement has been hard on Mom and meant many nights on the couch, but he looks so peaceful when he sleeps snuggled up to her like this.
