Noises that are sure to wake up a sleeping Caboose:
1. Buttercup Shrieks....in any form: Happy, Sad, Angry, or Frightened.
2. A Flushing Toilet in the middle of the night.
3. Karmyn coughing.
Noises that will NOT wake up a sleeping Caboose, but will rouse a sleeping Karmyn and cause her to be quite grouchy.
1. Jammin' singing the Indiana Jones Theme Song.
2. Zoe barking outside.
3. Buttercup happily chatting while playing in her bedroom.
4. Spongebob Squarepants music emanating from a t.v. turned up too loud.
5. Dave snoring, breathing too heavy, or talking in his sleep.
6. A ringing cellphone that should have been turned OFF.










What a beautiful baby! Caboose looks like he has your hair color, too!

Funny how babies can sleep through most any noise and chaos, but once it's quiet, any one little noise can set them to crying.

That is the cutest caboose I have ever seen! And I can't take it when my hubby is too loud getting ready for work at ungodly hours of the morning! He calls me "Oscar." Yes, that Oscar. Of the grouch fame.

I can't BELIEVE how much he's changed since a week ago!! Seriously, sis!

(I should've added here -- He is absolutely beautiful.)
When will we see you guys again?
Posted by: Amanda | June 17, 2008 at 04:37 PM
Thank God BN is fixed! I could just eat him - Caboose, that is. So is that his name now? Is he the last?

haha .. funny that how I'm reading this .. I'm hearing the Spongebob theme music blaring from MY tv. :P
Mr Caboose is super cute!!! HOpe you both are getting enough sleep.
Posted by: Rachel | June 17, 2008 at 05:33 PM
Absolutely beautiful!
And just seeing him got me all sniffley with anticipation!!
(and I told Mark about Caboose's shoulder blade - we are both now going to be VERY aware of that)

He looks like he's sleeping good at the moment. Hope momma gets some sleep soon too. :)

VERY, VERY CUTE!!!!
I don't hear my alarm in the morning, but if my husband opens his dresser I wake up...lol

Oh baby, you are the most beautifulest baby. Smooch!
I cannot tell you how many times I have said the words "WHO is flushing the toilet?!" Mostly when the youngest was a baby. I never said I was a patient person. ;)

Oh my word could he look any more perfect!! I'm a really light sleeper which is why I wear ear plugs. Until one of them slips out and then I'm down on my hands and knees in the middle of the night trying to find it. Lost ear plug = cranky Joy in the morning.

Dear Karmyn. That's such a cute photo of little Caboose! I hope you're getting a lot of sleep. Just throw the mobile phones out!
Posted by: Little Miss Moi | June 17, 2008 at 10:32 PM
He's so cute!
My youngest has been walking around humming the Indiana Jones theme song for months!

I don't even recognize Lil Caboose -- he's filling out so nicely.
awwwwww... so far away

Why do I have the sudden urge to reach through my monitor and pinch those adorable baby cheeks?!
Posted by: nikki | June 18, 2008 at 06:24 AM
That is one beautiful baby.
Posted by: Heather Goodman | June 18, 2008 at 08:40 AM
Oh he is just so adorable and none of the first three were happening when you took this photo!
Posted by: chrisb | June 18, 2008 at 09:48 AM
I want to eat him up. He's so angelic. I have no clue how sounds that seem so quiet wake them and ones that are so crazy loud don't phase. Not fair.

Oh my lord, what a precious little boy! I'm going to go kiss my baby's belly right now...
Posted by: Erin | June 18, 2008 at 01:48 PM
Awwww! The little Caboose is not a pumpkin anymore! Laughing at your list of what wakes you up but how nice, Jammin singing and Buttercup playing sweetly! It could be worse they could be fighting! But you should sooooooo kick Dave, snoring is annoying!
Posted by: Karisma | June 19, 2008 at 05:06 AM
Caboose and Karmyn are such angels when they sleep!!!
... if only they COULD sleep!!! ;-)
Posted by: Jodi | June 19, 2008 at 07:26 AM
Congratulations Karmyn!! I've been out of the blog cycle for awhile, but I'm back. Caboose is precious!
Posted by: Arkansas Songbird | June 20, 2008 at 10:27 PM
Karmyn, he's gorgeous. I'm still amazed what my now-toddler can sleep through (construction next door) and what wakes him up (the moment my body slides into bed across the house).
