A pillow...

So, we have a green blanket that we fold up and call his pillow (it helps him stay in the same direction at night). i turned on one of his favorite shows - and my least favorite - so i could fix dinner. when i hadn't heard "mommy" in a couple minutes, i looked around the corner to make sure he was okay.... he had gone and got his "pillow" and covered up with a blanket and was watching tv - he's actually saying "cheese" for the pic. he cracks us up!

Snow Day

So, this is the first snow that caleb was able to enjoy. He found it super cool that the ball left tracks in the snow when he threw it. Then, he got to sweep the driveway - who knew that was so much fun!

The Bounce House

So, we actually went back in december, but with my picture downloading issues, you just now get to see it. He spent most of his time in the obsticle course - but no pics of that, almost impossible. I was able to crawl into this contraption with him, even though all the equipment had the no pregnancy (pregnant belly with the line through it) sign on them. This is a great place to let him run and play, and he runs pretty much non-stop, unless he's jumping, climbing, or sliding. It's our new favorite alternative to sitting in our house (not bouncy) all day when it's so cold out.

Christmas!

So, here's the family - this was the one with the most of us looking and smiling. Us on the left, my mom and her husband (aka "big ed"), and my brother with his family: angela, jace & gavin.

... and this is the way cool train set, thank you grandad. we had to take most of it down to salvage it, the hills are hard for him to reach over. the funny part is the night he got this, he woke up at 2:00am-ish, came out of his room, flipped on the light and played with his trains. this went on for a couple of nights, but with nathan's bright idea, the trains "go to bed" at night too - caleb puts the trains in the drawer and we put a blanket over the tracks - the trains also nap.
