Pool, Friends, and Family

Hello all!

So a couple updates.

Caleb is amazing...have I said that before?!?! HA HA He is such a tough little guy.

First updates on some therapy:
So I am able to get Caleb to eat almost a half a jar at least once a day. It is not easy though. He is very timid when I bring the spoon to his mouth for the first couple bites. Then finally he seems to get into a rhythm and wants to eat! So I hope that that continues!

Walking: well I decided the other day to take Caleb outside to see if that would help in anyway with his distaste for his walking therapy. I put him on the sidewalk and held his hands and low and behold he started walking and far. He walked down to the end of our street and back and not just once a couple times. I was amazed. One of the cutest moment of the walk is when our friends who love Caleb just as much as we do drove by they would all say 'Good job Caleb' or 'You can do it!" So sweet! It is so wonderful to continually be surrounded by such wonderful people and friends.

Pool
Well Caleb had his first dip in the pool the other day and he loved it. The first day we tried it didn't go so well and he did not want to get it. So I tried the next day and he loved it. He also loves his daddy's hat more than his. So, I think we are going to have to get Brian a new hat!


Friends
Brian and I had the chance to go out last week and be surrounded by some more sweet and wonderful friends of ours. We all went to a local restaurant to have dinner, drinks, play pool, and watch the Penguins. We had so much fun! Thank guys it was so great to see you again. Hopefully, it won't be such a long span in between visits next time.
Family
So Brian and I have decided that we are going to start trying to do some 'normal' things, leaving the house when safe and doing things with Caleb, without putting Caleb at risk. So we tried a picnic! I took Caleb to my Mom and Dad's house on Memorial Day (Unfortunately Brian had to work so he couldn't go) so he could finally be around all his cousins and Aunts and Uncles. Caleb has not seen any of them since he was first born. So this was an awesome day for us! Truly amazing. It was so cute to see how Caleb watched his cousins Hunter, Casey, and Sam play with one another. They were so great too at maintaining a safe distance from Caleb! Thanks guys! AHHH to be with my whole family....my parents, my grandma, my brothers and their wives, and my niece and nephews....wow words can't describe. I love you all so very much and have missed being a 'part' of the family. I am so glad that we did it and thank you all for being so great regarding Caleb's safety. Next time, I will try to relax more! I cannot wait for the day when I get pictures of you all holding Caleb and being right next to him.
