Happy Birthday to YOU!

Caleb is ONE!

Yesterday we celebrated Caleb's first birthday. It's so hard to believe that a year has gone by so fast. I think I posted these pictures in the order that they were taken. So, we started our little guy's day with some birthday milk (he's a bottle boy now). He then showed off his walking skills (with Daddy's help) and danced to one of our favorite songs with Dan. We then had birthday muffins and presents. He enjoyed his first muffin and had fun with the presents (especially the wrapping paper :) Dan was so excited too! We had a great day and many visitors throughout. We love our Caleb. Happy Birthday sweet boy!

Sunday afternoon walk

We know a woman who owns ponies. We had a great walk to go feed them on Sunday. The boys LOVED it!!!!!

Caleb-boo (a favorite nickname at our house)

Cutie pie!

He's ready to go outside and mommy needed a spot to put him down while I got big brother ready.

Someone gave us a big bag of apples from their apple tree. Caleb found the bag and was so delighted to have his pick of many, many apples. He sneakily took bites out of lots of choice apples. It was so cute that I didn't have the heart to take them away :)

Danny Boy

Our big boy

Here is Dan with two of his friends at a park. I couldn't resist the picture of a redhead, brunette, and our little blondie.


Amazing rainbow! This was taken from our driveway.

Caleb's Book

It's hard to believe it, but our little Caleb will be one year old at the end of this month. Joe and I have also been amazed at how much Caleb has developed in the last few weeks. All of a sudden he seems to understand more, communicate more and enjoy more. Right now, his absolute favorite thing is his ''baby book''. It is a little book about babies and it ends with a little mirror so that he can see himself. If you ask him to go find his baby book, he gets really excited and tries to search for it. If you then read it to him, he repeatedly puts it in your face and says, ''Moe...Moe...'' asking for it to be read more :) It really is precious. This video captures his love for the book and his excitement about big brother Dan.
