Happy Friday Everyone!

Looking forward to a weekend of sunshine, digging in the dirt, playing good games with Dave's family, Saturday morning with our happy baby boy, taking a couple good naps, and a pancake breakfast. Weekends are the best!

And...somebody will be getting their very first 'trim' this weekend from Grandma Linda.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Our St. Patty's Potluck may become an annual tradition! This picture brings a smile to my face. I can't believe we all met at Newman a few years ago and here we all are today. The singles, dating, newly engaged, married, expecting, and growing. Thanks for coming everyone. We had so much fun eating greeen, wearing green, and being green. (Well maybe not the last part) It was a treat to be together again! Hard to believe our college days are long gone. But happy to know we can keep in touch :)

Pups.

Caleb made some new friends this past weekend while at Laura and Mark's house. He loved reaching out and touching the dogs. He didn't even mind letting them lick his little toes. He was just so fascinated.
He seems quite fascinated by his fake dog as well.

5 Months!

Happy 5 Months Caleb!
You weigh 27.5 lbs and are 28 in long.
You give us so much joy. You are coo-ing and babbling almost constantly now and we just can't get enough! You just started sitting up by yourself. You enjoy holding on to things, especially our faces. You squeal with delight when we tickle you and give you smooches. We love you Caleb Lincoln!

New Playmates for Caleb

Don't even ask how we managed to get Caleb and Dysa and Dakota all staying in the same place at the same time, looking in the same direction, and to even have a smile. WOW. That about sums it up.

Baby Blue

A New View

Caleb is starting to sit up by himself. He loves practicing. He grunts and breathes hard but gets upset if we lay him down. He would much rather be standing up or sitting up. He works so hard at it!

kind of fun... hello turtle!...whoa...am i about to face plant?
oh look at all those wonderful things...maybe if i just hold on tight to my pants i will stay like this...

hm....getting a little tired...but oh how i love my hand...

We decided to take Caleb on a little hike around the house in our new hiking backpack we got from Dave's parents. We have been so excited to use it and to take Caleb hiking with it but we had to wait till he could sit up on his own. This week he has been sitting up by himself so we put him in the backpack to practice and Dave strolled around the house with Caleb in it. He loved it! Oh man, it was hilarious! He just held on like a Koala bear and enjoyed the view from up above. I couldn't stop laughing as I snapped away. I think he felt like a prince on his royal throne.

And after such an exciting day with so many new and wonderful things...Caleb drifted off to dreamland looking as cute as ever.
