And now!
At his six week check-up, Caleb weighed 13lbs, 15oz and was 24in long! He's in the 95th percentile for height and weight, and wearing mostly 3-6 month clothes... He's our little chunker!
These photos are from today- he's exactly seven weeks today!
A Few More
Some more photos of our perfect boy from the last few weeks...
Tummy time on the blanket his Great-Grandma Clark made for him!
We love our Moby Wrap!

A Surprise Visit!
At 4 weeks, Caleb got to meet his Grandpa & Grandma Clark from Texas! It was a spur of the moment visit- they were in NYC and took the ferry over here to spend some time with the little man. He was very comfy sleeping on his Grandma :)
Caleb's First Trip to Baltimore!
At 3 weeks, we took Caleb home to Baltimore for Yom Kippur and to meet some of his adoring fans.
He got to meet Mommy's girlfriends...
And his great-grandparents!
He also met his uncles Aaron, Eddie, and Derek
and spent time with Uncle Andy, Bubby, and Pop!
Playing Catch-Up
I'm so behind on uploading and sharing photos... Here are a bunch from the hospital and his first few days home.

...And we've got a smile!
Right on target! Caleb's been smiling since he was born- and it wasn't gas!- but the past few days it's been much more purposeful and in response to us talking or singing to him- or right before he latches on to eat.
I'm happy to report that there are dimples involved.
Photos soon- we're heading to Baltimore to spend the weekend with family, but I have a ton of pictures to upload next week!

The Last Month
It's so hard to believe Caleb's only been with us for a little over a month... Pregnancy and everything pre-baby seems so far away now!
On the other hand, this time has flown by, and every morning I'm amazed to wake up (around 3:30am, for the record) and see that my boy's grown a little bit bigger.
I'm working on a proper "birth story," but I have this to say about labor and birth: It was amazing. It was definitely difficult, and I wouldn't call it pleasant, but for all of the pain and discomfort, there was such a sense of anticipation and excitement, knowing I was going to be meeting my baby soon. I do remember saying while in labor that I wasn't going to do it again, no more babies for us, but it's amazing how quickly you forget... Looking back, it doesn't really seem so bad. And not to be cliche, but it is SO worth it.
We're so lucky to have such a sweet, easy-going boy. He'll be five weeks tomorrow, and he's already made road trips to the beach and home to Baltimore. He's such a trooper whenever we go out, loves to take walks, and has been smiling since day one. He eats like a champ- at his two week check-up, he was 10lb 9oz! We're so in love with our little man... He's absolutely perfect. I love that he looks just like his Daddy.
More to come... Just wanted to check in with a little update. I'm definitely not getting as much computer time these days... It's so hard to put the kid down!
