Caleb Bo Baleb

This boy & his babies.  I think it is adorable.  He loves to talk to Luke whenever he can.  If either one of them is awake before school he actually speeds through breakfast (which is making a bowl of cereal last 20 minutes instead of 30) so that he can sit by them for a minute.
 He loves to make Alexa laugh.  It is so cute!  Caleb has said several times how sad he is going to be when his babies won't be babies anymore.
 I can't smile enough when I see this picture.  My cute boys!!
 He is such a good helper too!  I couldn't make it through my day without him.  He feeds them once in a while, takes dirty diapers outside to the garbage can, and he tries his hardest to make the babies happy if they are crying.
Caleb mentioned again tonight how sad he will be when his babies are gone.  He also said he can't wait to see what their faces look like when they get bigger.  After another moment of thought he said, "I'm going to have 5 kids.  Two boys & three girls.  The first boy is going to be named John & the second boy will be Russell.  The girls will be.....um....Beautiful, Dance & Princess!!"

Soccer - Cake - Babies - OH MY!

I took the plunge this spring & signed Caleb up for spring soccer.  He did pretty well!  He was so funny.  He was wearing blue & whenever a red player was in his way he would angrily say, "Get out of the way you RED!"  He pushed a little more than I think is allowed & he can glare like no one's business.  I'm excited to watch him learn how to play.
 I wanted cake one day.  I asked Caleb to come help me make one & he didn't want to.  He went to go back to his TV show & suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "Can we make a rainbow cake?"  How could I say no to such a fabulous question?!?!
 My sisters, Angela's friend Jerri & I got together last month to bust out some very cute Easter decorations!  It was quite inexpensive to make all of the cute string art.  I think the rabbit & the tulip are my favorites.  I love glitter!!!!!!!!
 So - this is happening.
They are growing up!  They are both rolling over,  getting their legs stuck in between the crib slats & then they have panic attacks.  Alexa is in LOVE with her thumb.  Luke LOVES to suck on his sleeve to put himself to sleep.  He also loves to put blankets over his face....I'll have to keep one eye on him at all times.  They are both eating baby food & both seem to really like it!  No matter where Alexa is - in a bouncer, in the high chair, in her car seat, on someone's lap - she is always in crunch mode.  Legs out & head up.  That baby girl has to have abs of steel!!  I am exhausted - but I do love these cute babies & I am happy that they are mine.

Some January Favorites!

Skittles, tote lids, The Little Mermaid.  Life really can't get much better!
 "HELPING" Casey shovel the driveway & clean of the cars one day.
 Ashley gave Caleb some window markers for his birthday.  He loves them.  He had me draw the outline of a castle & he colored it & added knights & flags & a drawbridge.  Adorable!!  I love his artistic creativity.
 Yes.  I know that you two are adorable.  Yes.  You can go to sleep now!
 Kind of funny.  Both of the blankets they have are "Grandma Cloe" blankets.  The yellow one is my baby blanket & the red one I got when I was a teenager (so yeah...a couple of years ago, wink wink)  She does good work.  They hold up well!!
 Playing with Shadow in the snow.  We have the coolest cat.  He jumps on the tramp...he plays with the kids...he jumps on the kids...if they are just sitting on the lawn, he will come & sit by them.  I hope he sticks around for a long time!
 These 3 love to bath together.  Obviously...I need a bigger tub ASAP.
 I seriously can't get enough of sleeping babies.  So adorable, innocent, comfortable, and priceless.
 Watching a show.  I hope they love each other forever.
 Little Alexa is a GIGANTIC thumb/hand sucker!  I'm glad a got a picture of her just before she tried to cram a hand into her mouth.
