Our Chunky Monkey

Callen has changed so much! He has grown a ton and gained a ton. He also is making big strides towards sleeping through the night!!

Weight: 10 pounds 9 ounces

Height: 26 inches

Our little love is also smiling a lot, he even smiles when he sees us after he wakes from a nap. He is swatting at and gripping rings on his play mat (which also means he can get a good grip of my hair), and holds his head up on his own most of the time.

Skyping with Magra and Papa

Visiting with Magra and Papa!
My mom and dad were such a help! They cooked, cleaned, made meals to last us weeks, took over late night feedings so we could sleep longer, helped organized the last bits that needed to be unpacked, and gave us a couple date nights!! I am not sure where they found the energy, but I am grateful for it!

Callen loved being read to by his auntie! Caity also helped a great deal around the house!

Callen snuggling with grandma Thompson. Chris and Caity also babysat so Josh and I could go on a date.
We just love our visitors!
