Grandma Came...and we went to the zoo!

We were feeling pretty lucky after Cindy came and then the next weekend Mom came!
Caleb had fun showing her all around the apartment complex, and especially where all the motorcycles were located!
Of course we had to get outside and grill some more burgers!
Matt's pretty proud!  YUM!!  He's getting pretty creative with specialty burgers!
Saving Caleb's ball from the pool.  Thanks Daddi!
Caleb got to read his Bible before bed with Grandma!  
We spend one morning at the Folsom Zoo!  It's a small zoo with animals that have "disabilities."
Gotta love the tigers!
And the bear was even out!  He was being pretty funny eating his breakfast!
Caleb seemed more interested in running around and climbing stairs than looking at animals!
Peakocks were everywhere!
"Okay everyone, time to climb up on that bench and take a needed rest."
"I'm pooped."
"Nigh-Night."- this is his going to sleep position.  Guess this is serious business.
"Grandma, help me get up.  I'm so tired."
"You guys go on ahead.  I'll catch up later."
Love this
Birds in Love!
A good day at the zoo.  We'll have to go again next time Grandma comes!
Thanks for coming mom!  Can't wait to see you in a couple months again!

Caleb Checkin' In

"Hi Dize" (Hi Guys)!  My turn to tell you what I'm doing these days.
 CLIMBING!!!  Yes, I can climb onto the chairs, the couch, into the bathtub, on my crib, and the other day Mommi turned about for a minute and then I climbed onto the table.  She tried to get a picture before I saw her but I'm too quick. :)  Now I pretend I'm going to climb up with an "I'm being silly" look on my face and then say, "no."  I'm a quick learner. :)
I LOVE Daddi's guitar!  I've even figured out how to get it out and play it without getting hurt or breaking it, so now I get to do it by myself!  I really really want one my size that's like this one!  I think I'm going to get one really soon!
 I still like to use my bat for a guitar, but now I know that it's really a BAT!  I'm really interested in all kinds of balls lately!  Baseballs, basketball, soccer, and whatever balls I see!  Wanna play with me?
 Sometimes when we go out I get really tired and fall asleep on the way home!  I think I'm growing!
 I was really excited that Mommi found an Elmo towel that I get to wear after I take my baths!  Mommi wants to get a picture of the look I get on my face every time I look in the mirror when I have it on!  I'm SO proud of it!
 Here I am with Daddy helping me to hold his guitar!  They didn't even show me how to hold it right.  I just figured it out by watching Daddy!

Mommi is going to post a video of me playing and Daddi singing that you should see. 
Yep, overall I'm a happy guy!  I'm trying to say LOTS of new words lately and so many new things that Mommi can't keep track of all it all!   Maybe she'll tell you some of them later.

"BYE- BYE!!"  If you were here I'd give you a high-five and a fist bump!

Aunt Cindy Visited!

Aunt Cindy came to visit and we had such a great time!!!
 The weather wasn't as nice as usual but still good enough to go outside and grill some burgers!
 We were trying to get a picture of all of us relaxing and look at me!  lol, I look like I'm holding onto the chair for dear life or something. :)  In reality I WAS very relaxed!  It was nice to not have to watch everywhere Caleb went at every second for a while.  Thanks Cindy! :)
 Ooops....our little explorer found some mud!
 Caleb loves his Aunt Cindy!  She showed him pictures on her computer and they even took some of themselves on it and made a video!
 She got Caleb a new batman sweatshirt that you can kind of see here. :)  More of our wonderful faces!
On our way to the airport.  :(  On the way home Caleb said, "Ah-Nin, Ah-Nin," and then did his sign for "more."  Come back Aunt Cindy!  Well, at least we get to see you in a couple of months for your wedding!!!

About Me- Cheryl :)

Just a bit about ME, since I know everything I post is about Caleb these days! 
Well, I must say that Caleb and Matt are what I'm up to the most! 
Cuz I pretty much love them to pieces!
But I still enjoy other things as well...like flowers!  These are some at our apartment complex.
Making desserts when holidays come!  Yum!  
These were for the kids this Easter, although I think the adults ate more than they did.
And more flowers!  I love the ones I chose but now we'll see if they last.  I ripped out the forgotten lawn and now we have yet to decide what to do with it.
More on me later.....when I get a few more minutes to myself! :)  
Next post....CINDY is coming to town....and then MOM!!!!

Look Grandpa...my new favorite toy!

This one's for Grandpa!  You'll be proud! 
 Caleb LOVES motorcycles, a.k.a. "bikes,"  so I've been looking for a little cheap toy that he can play with that's made for his age.  I couldn't find any so found this one and decided we'll just get it out when we're with him.
 The look on his face when I took it out of the package was priceless!  Again, wish I had a camera!  It was love at first site!
 He's never played with any toy car as much as this!  He drives it on the walls and shows anyone around!
 It makes me wonder if SOMEHOW, Dad, you've been brainwashing him with some new method through the air and across miles! :)
So we now have a musician biker on our hands....hmm, ROCK STAR in the future maybe! :) Next thing we know he'll come home from a nursery with a tattoo! :)
