Happy Birthday, Caleb!


Yesterday was Caleb's 2nd birthday. Where did these past two years go?

It was so fun having an older sibling (Ella) help celebrate birthdays! When we got up in the morning, Ella and I went into his room to get him up (like every morning). When we opened his door, we started singing 'Happy Birthday' together to Caleb. So fun!



That night, we decided to go to Serrano's for dinner. Then we came home and had a family party to celebrate! He loves cars and trucks, so we decided to go with that theme. The decorations are mostly from the movie 'Cars', but he doesn't really know the movie. He just likes cars. The cake in the picture is not his actual cake. We just bought it to have cake last night. His real themed cake will be revealed on Saturday at his party.


We got him a set of fire rescue Matchbox cars and a pair of shorts. We also got him a tee-ball set, but we're saving that for his party on Saturday. The cars we got him are perfect, because he is really into fire trucks (and school buses). One of the fire trucks out here is nicknamed Tink, so he calls every fire truck Tink. It's so cute to hear him call out "Tiink!'


Another thing that happened is that today I took his crib down. And now he gets to sleep in a big boy bed! It is Ella's old toddler bed. I think he loves it, but he is also a little unsure, which is normal with something new. He went to bed both for nap and night very well! He stays in the bed and goes to sleep. He is such a little obedient boy!


Caleb is such a sweet and rough-and-tumble boy. He loves his sister, and he actually calls her 'Sister' most of the time. He is such a blessing to our family and we all love him so much!

New Blog

I decided that I didn't want to clog up this blog with stuff about me, so I started a new blog to share my journey to better myself physically and emotionally. Please feel free to stop by there to check it out. I could use all the support I can get! It's called A Better Me.
