Can I have a drink of water?

During breakfast the other day, Caleb let me know that he wanted to drink out of my glas...so of course, I let him. He had a ball and we got a kick out of watching his reaction every time he took a sip...or a gulp!

Feeling the Christmas Spirit

Tons of energy and laughs

This is one of my favorite videos--too bad it is dark. At least you can hear Caleb really well. Even though the video is dark, it will leave a bright spot in your day!

Tired Speeches

Caleb has this thing he does when he gets tired...he gives a speech. I don't know how else to describe it. He tucks his chin into his chest (giving him a triple chin because he's so rolly-polly) and then he starts to "da-da-da" with great emphasis, like he is telling me something very important. I've finally been able to catch it on camera. When we stand him up sometimes he'll outstretch his arms, making it look like he's admonishing the masses. Maybe I've given birth to the future President of the United States. Ha,ha,ha!

I've Also Been Tagged

1. Hmmm...tag. The first time I played kiss tag was in 2nd grade and I wouldn't let the boys kiss me...I was kind of a tomboy. TV tag was fun too!
2. I haven't played kiss tag since I was in 2nd grade.
3. Any day that I get to eat a peanut butter and honey sandwich on whole grain bread is going to be a good day.
4. Sometimes after running, I shower with my clothes ON to rinse them out.
5. If I were on a deserted island and could only have one toiletry item, it would be Q-Tips.
6. I like to make jewelry as a hobby and to find my creative chi.
7. I think babies should be babies for 2 years at least...they grow too fast.

Hailey, you're it.

The Fair

We went to the AZ State Fair last weekend!





Cannon got a jumbo corndog and a deep fried Snickers on a stick...yummm!We had a really fun time even though (or because) we didn't ride the rides. I'm leary about a roller coaster that comes out of a 8 x 12 trailer and turns into a 200 foot high ride. I love walking through the 4H booths to see who made the most beautiful cake, painted the most lovely painting, took the most perceptive photograph, sewed the most detailed quilt, and made the most eye catching jewelry. I especially love to see all the bunny rabbits but this year the quancit was full of pigeons and only 4 bunnies. Who collects/breeds pigeons for fun? Gag. I would have been disappointed but Caleb was so excited to see the lights and hear the sounds of the fair that I forgot all about no bunny rabbits this year! We even got to watch some beat up cars do their Figure 8 racing and it was RAD!

Peek-a-boo in the crib!

We had a great time playing peek-a-boo last night with Caleb. It is so much fun and the anticipation and glee that Caleb has when we play is so delightful. I just don't think we could be any happier. The more he watches, the more he learns. He laughs all the time and he is really quick to learn new tricks.

Thunder in his toes!

Caleb Says Da,da,da

Punkin Patch

We went to the Pumpkin Patch today. I forgot my camera but my friend Janelle took a couple pics. We did come home with a baby pumpkin for Caleb! He liked holding it while watching Baby Einstein. We look forward to going again when the weather isn't in the high 90's. HOT!
