Don't Turn Your Back

We are quickly learning that we can't turn around and take our eyes off Caleb. It is no longer unusual to turn your head and then turn back to Caleb and find him facing a different direction. For the longest
time, we didn't have to worry that he was actually going anywhere. He simply rotated his body. Now that he can roll over, we have to be aware of where he is at all times. Earlier today, Mom put Caleb in this Boppy pillow in a sitting position. Mom turned away for just a short amount of time and when she turned back to Caleb, he had slid down and flipped onto his stomach.

Tonight, we went up to Weston to have dinner with friends who had yet to meet Caleb and who have a six week old baby boy of their own. While we were at their house, Caleb swung in their swing. He was quite captivated with the swing at first, however, as with everything, Caleb decided it would be more fun to simply chew on the swing rather than play with any of the available toys.
