Raising Two ADVENTURERS to Love Jesus

Two and a half today!

This  little sweetheart (and stinker) is 2 1/2! (April 24, 2014)
You are really funny...still.  You like when people laugh at you being silly.  You try to be silly.  You ARE silly! 
You have started really getting opinionated and when things don't quite go your way, you have no reservations in yelling, screaming, or throwing a fit.  These were a few of the things that Mommy selectively forgot about being 2.  

This shot makes me think of the Andy Griffith show.  I love your smile and your rolled up pants.  Who are we kidding?!  I LOVE YOU!
 You were fishing with a stick!  Oh the simple joys of being a child!
 You are getting big.  You can carry on a big boy conversation with anyone!  You are really getting taller but still have plenty of chunk stored up in your belly! You love to eat!  Stats: 28.5 pounds and 30" tall.
 The only way I got you to look at the camera was to talk about all of your friends!  You pray for your friends at bedtime every night.  A few that you mention: Miss Be-be-ly (Beverly): Aunt Cawul: Declan: Cannon: Asher.  These are all your teachers and "boy" friends in Bible class.
You are still is completely infatuated with construction sites, bulldozers, dump trucks, and diggers.  You know where Daddy's construction sites are when we pass by them.  You got to ride on a huge digger at Daddy's downtown construction site last weekend.  You were literally over the moon.  At least a few times a day I hear, "Can I wide (ride) it?" This refers to any machinery, and sometimes zoo animals! Haha!

You also love to play with your brother.  You two are getting better and better about "playing" together.  You play "boy" things like sword fighting and Ninja Turtles and Power Rangers.  You also will make up games like zoo animals and snakes.  It's so much fun to watch!

You can count to 12. The next few number are "x"-teen. 

You know the colors yellow and orange. The others still get a bit mixed up. ;)

Funny story:
We dropped Dylan off for school and we were walking back to the car.  You said, "Look, Mama, that truck has a mustache!"  I laughed and told you that I would go check it out once I got you buckled in your carseat.  I walked around to see this "mustache" and it was a bug guard above the grill of a Ford pickup truck.  I died laughing and said, "Yes, Caleb! You are right!"  
I just love getting little glimpses into your mind!  

Here is a classic "I'm 2" video of Caleb!!
Couldn't imagine our lives without you!  Love you to the moon and back!
