Caleb

Caleb is going through a bit of a stage right now. He's starting with the "terrible 2's" to a degree..nothing drastic but he's definitely pushing his limits. There are many instances throughout the day that I will tell him no and he'll proceed to continue whatever he was doing while looking at me so as to say "See me..I'm going to do it anyway." He's into everything...I mean no matter where something is at if he wants it then he is going to figure out how to get to it. I can't put things out of his reach-it's impossible becuase he will find a way.


I was busy with Allie the other morning and realized that I hadn't heard him in a couple of minutes so I started looking for him. He was in the bathroom playing in her soap by the tub and he'd decided to rub it all over his head. Seriously..he may drive me insane :)


I love this picture. It's rare right now that I can get two of my kids to sit still at the same moment so when I their faces together at the same time it was priceless!




It aka The Carefully Planned Attack right at dinner time every single night came back again and let me tell you Caleb doesn't miss it. We were outside the other night when it came and he literally climbed the fence to see it..I think he thought the higher he climbed the closer he would be. Seriously though..why do they come right at dinner time? They never miss...it amazes me...surely these people should be smart enough to come later on...and since when do ice cream trucks come during the week on a daily basis? What happened to weekends and summer day..geez...it's relentless!

Caleb is beginning to get alittle jealous of Allie lately. He isn't mean to her or trying to hurt her but it's obvious that there's some jealousy there now. He repeatedly comes up to me and tell me "mama I don't feel good" and wants me to hold him. At the beginning I was trying to find out what was wrong but then I quickly realized that he did it when he wanted me to hold him and give him attention. I'm trying to make sure that I give him individual attention everyday and that it doesn't get out of hand..the last thing I want is for him to start taking it out on Allie. My two year old is quickly growing up and beginning to get a mind of his own..I'll never be able to stop him now :)
