one and a half

Caleb is growing up faster than we can believe!
He just turned 18 months!
How can my little baby already be 1 1/2 years old?
Today he had a A+ check up at the doctor!
Perfect in every way!
He weights 24 lbs 8 oz and is 32.5 inches long!
WOW he's a big boy!

Caleb is our little jokester!
He makes us all laugh.
He says: mama, dada, papa, nana, (banana).
He is a good little cuddler--when he wants to be!
We love everything about Caleb...especially his hair!!
Sometimes Caleb's hair is spiky!

And on occasion it is in a Mohawk!
(Who is that peek-a-booing in the back?)

The best big brother in all the world: Ty!

Caleb's favorite thing right now is :BASKETBALL!
He LOVES basketball hoops, basketballs, and really all balls for that matter!
Every time we go for a walk he points and yells when he sees a basketball hoop.
When we get to church he points in the cultural hall and yells because he sees the basketball hoop!
This kid has a thing for sports!

Slam dunk!

He shoots....he scores!

But everything to Caleb is basketball...he shoots the ball up on my counters, the table, and even the bed:
Caleb loves shooting his ball up on my bed!
Then he claps for himself and feels very proud!

I knock it down...and then he shoots it again!
It's a little game we play!

Caleb has two favorite spots to sleep:
Mommy & Daddy's bed

And on hot days Caleb loves sleeping on the couch in front of the air conditioner!
Caleb is doing better sleeping in his own bed, but he would prefer these other spots any day!

Caleb loves to eat--that is when he can do it himself!
Caleb loves using a fork and spoon!
Some of his favorite foods are: chips, rice, cold cereal, scrambled eggs, corn cut-off the cob, gummies...and much much more!

I sure do love that little guy! Seeing the recognition in his eyes when he sees me for the first time in a while is so much fun! And I swear, he gets more and more fun every time we see him!

Happy Half-Birthday little Cayeb! Love you lots!!!

This big guy is so much fun. I love the way his face lights up when he walks in the back door. He runs around checking out every room. I don't know what he is looking for, but he is always glad to be here.
He is so happy, he makes me laugh.
