I've read that this is the time that the baby (and I) will grow a lot. I can tell as the appetite has sure gone up. But, seem to be having to watch what I eat more so I don't have to reach for the Tums too much.
Last week, Baby C had really settled into a spot down low and seemed to be leaning on a nerve that gave me lower back pain. This week he seems to have shifted somehow that has relieved me of that pain so I can take strolls outside at work again which is nice. Of course, he may have shifted upward and that may be why I've had more indigestion. When it really comes down to it, there is only so much room to grow a baby before they start bumping into something!!!
Caleb has gotten really used to the idea of his baby brother coming. Well, as much as an almost three year old can about someone he hasn't met yet. We talk about him often though and this morning Caleb was talking about being the best brother.
Of course right now a lot of attention is on Caleb with his 3rd birthday approaching on Saturday. Plus the excitement of Christmas. He says that he is going to sit on Santa's lap and ask him for a few Christmas presents. Throughout the day, there are other topics that Caleb will say that he wants to share with Santa. I don't know, he could get shy and scared and back out. Or, he might want to settle in and chat for awhile with Santa. It will be interesting to see.
It's fun to watch Caleb this year really becoming interested in Christmas and watching the specials with us and singing the Christmas songs. I can only imagine having two little boys running around the house as we count down to Christmas in the next few years.
Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the holiday season. Take care and talk to you soon.
