Calvin is 3 months old!  He is a very easy going baby and everyone loves to hold him and make him smile.  He is pushing up on his belly and holding his head up.  He loves to find his fist and try to stuff it into his mouth.  He recognizes faces and smiles and coos a lot more.  Cal is sleeping 6 hours in a row at night!  He started his day care at Paulette's house with his brother and it is going great!  He is about 11 pounds and 22 inches long.  He looks SO much like his big brother it is crazy!

Calvin is six weeks old!  Time is flying by too fast.  He is growing out of his newborn size clothes and diapers and is starting to wear 0 to 3 months.  He is likely pushing 8 pounds and 20+ inches.  His eyes are turning more blue and he is awake a little more but still likes to sleep A LOT!  He has started smiling a bit and lots of smirking.  Calvin sleeps a 4 hour stretch at night or on a great night 5!  He is a squeaker and a squealer.  He had to move into his own crib in his own room across the hall because he was too noisy and keeping his parents awake with his noises!  Calvin does not like a bath, but doesn't mind being in the shower!
 Cal loves to sleep in his rocker.
 Copy cat.

On June 7th at 1:47pm Calvin Joseph was born at the Elliot Hospital in Manchester NH.  He was 5 pounds 2 ounces at birth and 18.5 inches long.  He has lots of very blonde hair!  His delivery doctor was Dr. Wasserman (same as his big brother Lincoln).   His labor was about 5 hours total , 3 at the hospital and 20 minutes of pushing, he was much faster!  He had lots of visitors come to meet him at the hospital and then even more at home.  He came home 2 days later at 4 pounds 14 ounces after he passed his car seat test ( sitting safely for 90 minutes).  He has been a great  eater (up 15 ounces in 6 days at home) and sleeper.  He typically wakes Mommy up twice a night.  He does not like diaper changes or baths.  He is starting to take a pacie and has already had a bottle when Auntie Kristen babysat him for Mommy and Daddy to go to a wedding.  He is a sweet boy and loves to snuggle.  He smirks in his sleep a lot!
 About two hours old, moving to the Maternity suite from the Labor and Delivery room.
 Daddy gets to ring the lullaby bell to signal we had a baby!  Then he has to go home and shave!!
 Lincoln come to see Cal right away and likes to hold him and kiss him!
