Special Birthday Delivery

Caleb's birthday present from Nani and Poppy came this week (Thanks to some friends who let us use their truck to pick it up) Caleb was so excited to help Dad build it. I thought the building process would take awhile (especially with the help of little hands) but it took less than an hour and was all ready for Caleb to play on it before dinner. Lucas watched all the action





Those magnets are never far from Caleb's sight





It's ready!








Oh boy the fun he has been having!






I'm really excited for him to have something to climb on. He loves climbing up onto his bed and this will be helpful to get out his energy in the morning before nap time and in the afternoon and evening before bed! This morning after our walk Caleb was having so much fun climbing up and around it and finding rocks to put down the slide, I would have grabbed the camera and taken a couple pictures, but Lucas was passed out in my arms, cozy as can be, and I didn't want to interrupt either one. I just love watching you play Caleb. You wander around the backyard picking up rocks and picking flowers. You explore the garden and jibber jabber in there talking to yourself about tomatoes. I sit on the swing and smile as you bend over and look closely at rocks on the ground. This morning you found an apple in the garden and picked it up, told me several times 'apple' and showed it to me. Then you carried your rock and apple over to your new climbing structure and set them on top of it, climbed up after them, and went down the slide holding tight to your apple. It was just a little moment of your day, something that I caught between holding your brother warm in my arms. I love my boys so much (especially their sweet daddy!)!




Thanks for the present Nani and Poppy! Love, Caleb
