the week in review

As you all know Caleb Joshua Garner arrived on Saturday August 1st and 8 19 am. 7lbs 13oz and 20 in long.

Since then we have spent the week loving on him and cuddling both our boys, we are truly blessed to have such amazing spirits in our family.

Caleb is very tranquil as the Italians say, he sleeps more then Jacob ever did and will suck and root on ANYTHING. Our little hoover:)

Jacob has been over all amazing with his baby brother, as i nurse a pile will accumulate on my lap of things Jacob brings to Caleb or as he referes to him Cadub. booties, a hat, a lovey are just a few of the things Jacob thinks Caleb should have. At least 4 times a day we hear "hold it hold it" and Jacob sits right beside us and holds his brother.

We took our first family of 4 outting today, near by there is a lake,Caleb slept and Jacob and i fed the fish and the hissing swan, both of us were quite scared he was going to come after us. we played on the park and the attempted ice cream, however for Jacob having it in his hand is much better then eating it.

we now anxiously await the arrival of Aunt Annie who come on tuesday to help share in our bliss.

~over all thoughts aon the new addition, i think he resembles Josh much more, although Jacob started out this way. Calebs eyes are darker and his cheeks are fuller so maybe the Garner gene did dominate this time, we shall see. we have set up a photo appt to have Caleb's newborn pics taken as well as a family photo:)
