Catching Up...


Caleb dancing in the yard on Easter!


We have been super busy here and things FINALLY seem to be winding down!  I finished student teaching and am just waiting til graduation day (May 9).  Patrick is almost done with this semester and is working furiously to get his last paper done!  

Caleb is doing AMAZING!  He had his big developmental assessment last week and he is right where he should be for a 12-15 month old (12 months is his adjusted age, so they still use his adjusted age for developmental milestones).  He is, however, definitely a 15 month old on the gross motor development scale (he scored in the 93 percentile).  The child LOVES to walk and has recently discovered that he can run!  He enjoys going up and down stairs and is just so full of himself!  His two favorite words are "dada" and "mama".  He will shake his head no when he doesn't want something and he is enjoying learning to use a sippy cup!  He is now on whole milk and the transition from formula to milk went beautifully.  So, he's pretty much doing everything toddlers his age do!  

He also had his 15 month checkup and his pediatrician is "very impressed" with his growth and overall development.  He weighs 22 lbs 2 oz and is 30" long.  He is still only in the 25th percentile for height and weight, but he's definitely catching up (during his last visit, he was only in the 10th percentile).  He's definitely moving in the right direction!

Enjoy the recent pics of Caleb!  As you can see, he is quite the ham for the camera!

Blessings,
 Patrick, Kasey, and Caleb
