Here are some 'old' pictures of Caleb from a few weeks ago. It's been hot on and off here in Raleigh. Some days it's in the 80s F (26 C) and then other days it's in the 40s (4 C)....and then inbetween those crazy weather changes, comes thunderstorms. Hopefully Hurrican season won't be as bad here on the east coast as last year, although North Carolina was spared almost all the storms in 2005.

So it was really hot a few weeks ago, so we decided to buy a small baby pool and see if Caleb would like to hang out outside. Well, Jay had filled it with hose water rendering it ice cold. Without thinking, I put Caleb in his little 'swimmers' diaper and put his feet into this cold water. It took a second and then his face screwed up and and he let us have it!

I then went back inside to add some hot water into this kiddie pool....and there you have it, Caleb lounging (since he can't sit up yet) in this luke warm water outside in the hot sun. Do you notice that we now have green grass? We're one of the first lawns in our neighborhood to have green green grass (thanks to Jay's obsession with yardwork and fertilization).

Yesterady, Caleb discovered his foot. Florice alerted me first and then when I got him home, I put him on his back and sure enough, he grabbed his big toe and jerked it around a couple of times.

He hasn't rolled over yet (that I know of) but there was one day where I put him down on his back, turned away and next thing you know, he was on his belly yelling at me to turn him back over. But since I didn't actually see it, does it count as his first roll?
