A little on each

They turned 1 on Dec 1st and their progress has been wonderful. Here is a quick update on all four:

Caleb (3) - he has been a very good big brother. He said the other day if he had to share a room he would share with Cooper. If I asked him again right now he may say Joshua or Major. Caleb was a little sick over the weekend but is feeling better today. He generally gets up between 6 and 7 a.m. and likes to watch a little TV and have some juice before he gets his motor cranking.

Cooper - ok nap taker, very loud, must have two sippie cups - if not he will try to borrow (steal) one from Major or Joshua. He stands and crawls very well and walks with help. Cooper usually sleeps until 6:30 or 7 a.m. Though he is the biggest he eats the least. His favorite food at the moment is the kid size gold fish and frozen green peas. If he does not want whatever you are trying to give him he waves his hand in front of his mouth. If you leave it on the tray he will swipe it off.

Joshua - has suddenly turned into a 3 hour nap taker, before he thought they were for the other two. He has thankfully started sleeping until 6 a.m. or later 3 or 4 days a week. The other days he thinks 5:15 is appropriate. He is walking and smiles and boasts to the others while doing so. Joshua eats everything and lots of it.

Major - has taken the baton from Joshua and now thinks naps are for others. He is still the best night time sleeper. He will sometimes go up to 13 or 14 hours straight. Major, like Cooper, stands and crawls very well and walks with help. He is actually a very fast crawler when he stalks one of the other two and goes in for tackle. Major is a pretty decent eater. If you think he's full throw a little chopped hot dog in front of him. If he shovels it down you know he needs a little more of whatever else you were feeding him.

That is it for now - I will do my best to post more often. I know you have read it before but this time I mean it, I think.
