Uncanny Resemblance

02/05/2010

Love when I get similar pictures to compare. They definitely are different looking boys, but this picture is the most similar of pictures I have of both boys so it’s easiest to compare here. You can tell they’re brothers though! Here’s Caleb at 6 days old (September 11, 2007): Here’s Jack at 8 weeks old Read More

iPhone Recording Device

07/11/2009

So, Josh’s new iPhone has this recording device on it that’s pretty good. So, here are some recordings we’ve done with Caleb. Caleb is 21-22 months in all of these. Caleb is playing the piano while I talk to and sing with him. I try to get him to sing too. (actually, this first recording Read More

What Does a Mama Do?

Caleb has loved playing house with his Little People house and car lately. It has a dad, a mom, and a baby. He keeps them very busy. They all use the potty and then take a bath afterwards. The baby goes night-night frequently. And then he loads them all in the car and drives him Read More

Sometimes Caleb will even Read More

Caleb is Funny

12/18/2008

His early humor was physical, he loved being tickled, kicking his legs, swinging around, and anything else that was very Read More

Back to Cloth

11/10/2008

Well, today marks our transition from disposable diapers back to cloth. We initially started with a mix of disposable & cloth, but decided to go to all disposable because of the whole move across the country, live with my parents, search for a house, buy a house, move again thing. Now that we’re nice and Read More
