Spending some time with his GF

Checking out the doggies outside. Side note: We finally let the doggies in, and within 20 mins, Caleb chased the big dog, Lucy back outside. She actually ran for the back door!

Playing with the magnets with each other

Riding in Elyn's VW Beatle. Well, Caleb was sitting on Elyn's lap and she was none too happy about it. At one point, he ended up sitting on the floor, but still holding the wheel of the car.

I think Elyn wanted to push him out of the car at this point. :)

Chinese New Year (Kung Hei Fat Choi!)

Chinese New Year is officially on Monday, but we had a weekend of chinese cultural fun for Caleb. We went to the Asian market 30 mins away and had lunch, then shopped, and bought some yummy pastries. I also ordered a bubble tea (which is basically sweetened milk tea with tapioca balls at the bottom). Then today, we went for Dim Sum and enjoyed the Dragon Dance they had afterwards. Caleb loved all of it, and wasn't even scared of the dragons that danced in front of him or all the popping firecrackers either.

Here are a few pics from the weekend.

Caleb is actually trying to touch the red dragon in the prevous picture.

Caleb loves to try to eat off of forks and spoons, especially if he is holding it. Although, he still needs some assistance getting it to his mouth successfully. :)

Someone stole my bubble tea! he couldn't quite suck up the tea and bubbles on his own, but he knew what was in it was good, so he took it from me.

Ba-Ba's Headphones

Caleb the Piranha

When it comes to food these days, Caleb has become an eagle-eyed piranha. If you are eating something, and he wants it..... he'll take it.
Case in point are the pictures below. We were trying these new healthier popsicles made of Greek yogurt. We would give caleb a little taste here and there, and then I let Evey lick my stick since I was done. Caleb decided the taste wasn't enough and took his Ba-Ba's popsicle. You can see who won the fight. :)
Note: He will take anything you are eating if he wants it, and just because it is in your mouth does not mean it is off limits....pretzel sticks, crackers, fruit, etc.
