PICTURES!!

I just realized that I hadn't loaded any pictures from our camera for a few weeks.

He changes at the blink of an eye.

Caleb is trying to get to Evey's water bowl, which Mae had to hide bc he crawls over and plays in her water. Even with the door closed, he knows where it is and wants it.

Caleb is fearless! He crawls to chair and climbs on it, then stands up on it! Needless to say, we aren't quite as fearless about it. :) He is defintely all boy!

Caleb letting all the water out of the pool.

Trying to drink from the sippy cup. He's getting pretty good at it.

Playing in the pool inside without water. Who says you need water to have fun? :)

First position...

On the go...Caleb pulled himself up on his own

Visiting Gong-Gong and Pau-Pau

Playing with Pau-Pau. He looks like he is as big as she is!!

Caleb can play with anything! He was really hot, so we made him a sleeveless onesie. :)

Walking up the stairs. He loves doing this, he even knows to lift up his feet!

He loves playing in the laundry basket

Someone is not happy about the paparazzi

Happy one minute....... not happy the next :)

Trouble with a capital T

How many milestones can he hit this week?

We just lowered Caleb's bed today bc he started to gnaw on the rail and was trying to pull himself up.  Just in the knick of time!
How many milestones can this kid hit this week?!

We've got a Crawler!!

What a difference a few days makes! Enjoy!

Eater

Caleb and I went to visit Pau-Pau and Gong-gong. His taste buds have definitely awakened, and he wants to participate during dinner. He was actually asking for food(well, more like grunting), and if I don't get it to him quickly enough he will let me know. :)
Funny story, I was eating a pickle and Caleb seemed to want some, so I let him try it figuring he would hate it once he tasted it. Instead he stared chewing on it and before I knew it had gnawed a good chunk out with his bottom teeth. I took it away, and he started focusing on something else. I decided to finish it and started crunching on it. He heard me crunching on it and his head swung around so fast and opened his mouth and wanted to get some more! My little boy is getting big!
Also, he just said mama for the first time yesterday! Granted, it was mixed in with a bunch of gibberish, but he said it a few more times, and did it again this morning. Sean was even there and we kind of just looked at each other to make sure the other person heard it as well! So proud! Now to work on dada.

Below are some pictures of him enjoying some pickles and asparagus. He actually few himself 5 little spears of asparagus at dinner one night. The next day he also tried some okra (just little pieces of the side) and bitter melon from pau-pau's garden, and he loved both! He might have had veggie over load bc he was farting up a storm. But i think we have a future foodie on our hands, just like mama and dada. :)

Outings this weekend

First Time Eating Ohio Corn

It's becoming an annual tradition to bring home a bushel of sweet corn from Ohio and par cook it and freeze it for the year. Trust me, this is the like the best corn you have ever eaten in your entire life. Caleb got his first taste, straight off the cob. :)

Caleb Meets the Family

We finally made it up to Ohio for everyone to meet Caleb. Needless to say, he had a ball! Caleb loved meeting everyone, and I think everyone loved meeting him. This was just another situation where we realized what a great baby he is. Meeting a ton of new people, being out of his normal element; he never got too fussy or cried.
I tried to cut the pictures to the bare minimum, but we still have a ton to share- so enjoy! All of these pictures over 3 days. :)

Caleb meeting Luda for the first time. I don't think we'll have an issue with Caleb and dogs. :)

Caleb and the giant sock Monkey. I think he wanted to take it home.

Waiting for some Amish food. :)
