Caleb Gilbert Aplet

Posted By: Mark 5 Comments January 19, 2012

Baby Caleb Gilbert Aplet is born! Finally the day has come when little Caleb decided that he would make his grand appearance, and finally take his place amongst our family. Caleb was born at 2:34 PM on Saturday, January 14th 2012 at Sutter Davis Birth Center. He weighed 7 lbs, 2 oz and was 20 inches long.

We have a wonderful birth story to share with you all, and we definitely will. I would like that story to be in Heather's own words. In fact we will try to do another video blog entry since it takes less time than writing. Between nursing, attending her bits, and trying to eek in a sliver of sleep, time is something that Heather has very little of right now.

Stay tuned for that post. It's pretty amazing!

For those of you that don't know Heather's side of the family too well, "Gilbert" was the name of Heather's father who passed away In September of '09. He was a man that loved babies, especially his grand babies. Caleb would have no doubt been his favorite. So, we decided to make Caleb's middle name "Gilbert" in memory and honor of her father. Something that we think is pretty special.
