I'm a new Aunt! My sister and brother-in-law have been trying to have children for 6 long years. After deciding to adopt, Ariane and Zane are finally proud new parents of a baby boy. They were selected by a birth mom a few months ago and have busily been preparing for parenthood. Dallin was born Feb. 19 weighing 6 lbs. 13 oz. Last night was their first night with the baby (and the first night of many where they won't get very much sleep!) Congratulations Ariane and Zane!
Caleb is celebrating his 1/2 birthday today. He had his 6-month check-up where he was in the 30th percentile for his height, 50th percentile for his weight (18 lbs.), and the 75th percentile for his head count. He's been a sleepy and cranky boy today due to the shots :(

Momma's Boy
My internship starts in a few weeks, and I'm getting very nervous about leaving Caleb with his grandmas. I've already pushed back my graduation date a semester (now I'll be graduating in August instead of May) to try to make things easier for both Caleb and I. Caleb definitely is a Momma's Boy right now, where he wants to be with me at all times. Even when Matt gets home from work, he is only interested in Dad for so long before he wants Mommy again. It's kind of neat to have this special bond with my baby where all of a sudden I'm the person that can make everything all better.
For those who don't know, I'm finishing up my masters degree in Library Science. My internship consists of working 130 hours in a library, so I'm going to start going in twice a week for 5 hours each day. I am so fortunate to have my parents and Matt's parents within 20 minutes of where I live, so Caleb's grandmas will be helping out a lot. I think the first week or two will be very hard for both Caleb and I (as well as his grandmas), but hopefully this will help Caleb do better around other people. I always feel bad having family watch Caleb while Matt and I go to the temple or a date because he cries a lot of the time. He was doing better for awhile, but now has regressed since he hasn't been around people all that much these last several weeks. Here are a few pictures from this last week:

Caleb's new favorite toy: his rubber ducky. He likes to bite the rear of the duck and make it squeak.
Caleb makes the funniest expressions when he tries new foods. This is the first experience with green beans.
