Baby Voice?

Every time I talk in my sweet, soothing, happy voice to Owen, I get a dose of just how ridiculous I sound as Caleb repeats and imitates exactly what I say, exactly the way I say it.

I need to remember not to talk this way in public. :-o

Caleb Loves Random Things

Caleb has a habit of asking a random question, which I answer, and then he says "Oh, I love _____." <----- insert the random thing he asked the question about.

Here's an example:

I was washing him off with a wet washcloth after lunch today.

Caleb: Is that water dirty?
Me: No, it's clean water.
Caleb: Oh, I love clean water! (with a smile on his face).

Just in the past hour or so, he's also loved pictures, ducks, hot dogs, Sid the Science Kid, mowing the lawn, a badminton racket, and Lego's.

I love that he loves so many things. :)

Caleb Likes Beans

Today we had hot dogs and baked beans for lunch. Caleb cleaned his plate and then we had this exchange.

Caleb: Mom, I want more.
Me: Wow, you ate a lot! Do you want another hot dog?
Caleb: Yes, and more jelly beans!


Jelly beans, baked beans... close. :)

Caleb Speak & Easter Presents

Caleb has his own words for a few things. Some of them are are just that he can't quite pronounce the word, but not all of them. It's like he forgot the exact word for something so he just made up a replacement that sounds similar and will stick with his version, even if I try to correct him.

Here are a few examples:

Toilet = Turet

Lawnmower = Lawnbury

Hammer = Hamera (Sounds like a combination of hammer and camera)

Night Fury (the type of dragon on the movie "How to Train your Dragon") = Night Goody

He's funny. :)

In other news, my sister made these awesome bunnies for the boys for Easter and this adorable coffee cup sleeve for me. (And she didn't forget Clayton, but since he is a lot harder to knit for, he got a new kind of beer. Which was right up his ally!) Isn't she thoughtful & creative?

Seen enough?

Too bad. :)

Ok... Just a Couple More...

Owen is 3 months old!
