Tonight Caleb got to meet some more of Dad's family. Mom, Dad, Caleb, Poppy and TuTu went to dinner to meet Dad's uncle, cousin and Caleb's cousin Kelton. As always, Caleb was a big hit. People just enjoy seeing and holding a small baby. It is so fun to watch people play with Caleb because he is such a sweet boy.
The rest of the day was pretty routine. This afternoon, Mom and Dad took a walk so Caleb could get some fresh air. We wandered down to a park near Poppy and TuTu's house. We found a nice, shady spot to lay down, but we didn't bring a blanket, so I put my shirt down for Caleb. Mom was unsure of this arrangement, but I was able to finally convice her that we don't have chiggers in New Mexico.
We also spent some time in the swing. When I first put Caleb into the swing, he protested, but as soon as I had him situated and got him swinging, he calmed down and actually enjoyed it. Again, as I put him in the swing, Mom stood to the side fretting. This is going to be our pattern. Dad is going to be much more adventurous encouraging Caleb to take some risks while Mom stands nearby chewing her finger nails and peeking between her fingers.
We had a good time at the park. However, the sun is very bright in New Mexico. We covered Caleb with his burp cloth to keep the sun out of his eyes on the walk back to Poppy and TuTu's house.
