What's Caleb been up to?

One of Caleb's very favorite places... Chuck E Cheese!  I took him a couple weeks back "just because"
 We went with friend's to Desert Ridge's Play Factory... its a new found love!  
 Now that Caeden is back in school full time Caleb and Hannah get a lot more one on one time. :)
 This sweet kiddo has always loved to line up whatever it is that he is playing with.  This morning was no exception... animals, pirates and super hero's of all sizes. :)  
 The night before his first day of preschool... he was pretty happy. 
 The first day of preschool he was pretty nervous and at the end of the day he wasn't too sure he wanted to "do preschool."  (Hannah looks pretty concerned about it too :))
Today was only his second day and today he loves preschool.  On the car ride home he told me he had been concerned about being surrounded by so many girls. lol! (oh how things change as you grow!) :)

4 months

 "I'm what?!".... 4months 
AND mom says I'm pretty.  (that's one of her nicknames for me)
 I love my daddy, and I love watching football with my daddy in a tutu and.... being kissed. :) 
 I love to wear dresses and pull them up to my mouth and gnaw on them.  We are pretty sure I am going to teeth early like my brothers.  
And baths... oh how I love a good "kick in the water." :)  I had my Dr. apt today and I am 24 inches long and 13lbs.  I'm in the 20%tile....don't I look chubbier than that in this picture?  :)  My brothers were both 26 inches long and Caeden was 17lbs 5 ozs and Caleb was 17lbs. 12ozs at this age.   The dr. said I may be little but I am strong and doing all the things I should at this stage.  I enjoy being in the middle of it all and I love when mom prays.  I'm about to get more one on one time with mom.  Caeden started 1st grade yesterday (blog post below) and Caleb is going to go to preschool a few mornings a week starting on the 21st.  Stay tuned....     

First Grade!

 Our big kid is officially a first grader.  He loves that this year he is allowed to wear whatever he wants to school, he is not missing the uniforms. The brothers chose to get matching Avenger shirts for their first days. :)
 All 5 of us went with him to school yesterday to meet the teacher, see his classroom and get him settled.  He got right down to buisness said he had a good day.  :)  
 We are definately growing up... hair do, fun school t-shirt, and older kid ("cool dude") shoes. 
Yesterday we drove him to and from school, but we have a bus that comes right by our house that can take him and drop him off and today we decided to try it.  It was a little scary for me and Caeden was a bit worried about who would be on the bus and would he know where to catch the bus and would the driver stop on our street?!.  :)  We met each other at the bus stop at the end of the day today with big smiles on our faces, thrilled that it all worked out!  :)  And what a blessing to not have to load up the younger two and drive every morning and every afternoon.  This is going to be a good year!
