Three Weeks Old

Isn't this the cutest bundle ever? Caleb turned three weeks old yesterday and is growing like a weed! We took him to the dr on Monday and he has gained over a pound in a week and has grown over an inch in length! The dr called him a little piggy since he should right now be at his birthweight.... we arejust thankful he his healthy!

Happy Thursday!

1 Week Old

Could these boys be related? The first picture is Drew at a week old, the second, Caleb at a week old. They do look alike!!!

Caleb is a week old!

It is amazing how slowly the past month or so went by, waiting on this angel to get here.... twice a week doctor visits, 3 trips to the hospital(well 4 counting delivery) and this past week has FLOWN by!

We are overwhelmed at how blessed we are to have two beautiful little boys in our life.

Meet Caleb

So... here are the long awaited pictures that I promised! Our new year has been filled with many new blessings- here is our favorite one!

Caleb Edward Chadwick born on January 7th, 2009 at 2:29 pm. We debated until the moment the lady came from vital records on his middle name. There were many that we liked! We chose Edward (Matthew's middle name) which is also a family name. Drew was named after several men in my family with the name of Andrew (my grandfather and uncle).


A very content little boy waiting to see his mommy!

Ahhh... finally getting to see mommy.

One proud daddy!!!!

Grandma and Grandpa finally get to meet Caleb.

Nana and Papa finally get to meet Caleb!

Big brother Drew finally gets to meet Caleb! He was SO sweet. You never know how a 2 year old is going to react to a sibbling. Especially one so strong willed as Drew- wonder where he gets that? When Caleb cried, Drew would say, "it's ok baby Caleb". Since being home he has been a big help. He especially likes to hold him.

Kisses from big brother..

Drew had to touch his eyes, nose, head, and all other parts of the face and tell us all about it!

Caleb is such an easy going baby. Drew was too, but I think Caleb is even more laid back than Drew was. He is sleeping pretty good, the last two nights he has slept for 4 hours at a time! I only had to get up with him once last night around 3:30 or so and he was awake for about an hour and slept until almost 8 this morning. God bless the sleep!!!!

Until next time........

Welcome Caleb!

We welcomed our son Caleb Edward Chadwick on Wednesday, January 7th at 2:29pm! He weighed in at 6lbs 10oz and 19 1/4 in long. We all underestimated his size! Everything went as good as can be (except that the epidural didn't work, but it's all good) and Caleb is very healthy. We had a wonderful experience at Chesapeake General.

We came home today around 2:00. He is a very laid back baby- even more so than Drew, that's kinda scary!!! Drew is adjusting well to his new baby brother.

We will post pictures tomorrow when we get them loaded on the computer!

Wednesday is the day!

We found out today that I will be induced on Wednesday! We will post pictures as soon as he gets here!!!!
