Transition Day

Today was supposed to be Caleb's big entrance into the world...his transition, so to speak. However, he had other ideas and arrived 12 days ago...12 amazing days. I hope this is not a foreshadowing of his personality.

Today was another transition for Caleb. His Poppy and TuTu bid him farewell this morning. Caleb had a very good week getting to know his Poppy and TuTu. Both Poppy and TuTu got a lot of Caleb time and both were very helpful to Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad were sad to see them go.

However, Mom and Dad welcomed Granddaddy and Whatshername for a weeklong visit of their own. Mom and Dad are looking forward to spending some time with them, but I have a suspicion that they are much more interested in seeing Caleb than they are interested in seeing either Mom or Dad. Oh well, I guess that goes with the territory.

Prior to leaving the house, TuTu gave Caleb one last kiss...one to remember her by. The evidence is visible in this picture on Caleb's forehead. Mom and Dad tried to take this picture several times, but in each shot, one of Caleb's limbs is a blur. This is the picture in which he is most "still."
