Other fun details: Oh gosh! Where to even begin...Caleb has changed so much since the last time I posted on this blog! Well, let's see....for starters, little man is definitely no baby anymo

re. We have a full blown toddler on our hands and boy oh boy is he all about asserting himself as an independent person! Forget walking, Caleb is quite the

little monkey running all over the house, climbing EVERYTHING, (including the baby gates designed to keep him out of trouble!) reaching up onto counters--yup! he's that tall now! It's just crazy! In addition to looking and acting like a little person, he's starting to sound like one too! At this point, there's

honestly too many words in his vocabulary to list- but a few of the highlights:

Daddy- So sweet... :)

Mama- Nope! This one has nothing to do with me! When Caleb s

ays "Mama," he means "monkey." Monkeys are all "mamas" but I am nothing but a giggle!

Lala- Lion (His security lovey and best friend)

Nana- Banana

Baba- Sippy Cup

Baaaah...- Ball

Cookie!- This one's clear as day and definitely a taboo word unless it's dessert time!

Poopy!- He says this when he's made one- He also waves his hand in front of his nose for "stinky!"

Some other cool/cute things that Caleb does now are point to his head, feet, belly, and ears when you ask him where they are....completely understand and do the things we ask him- like, "Go sit in your chair buddy!" (Well, unless he's doing something that he's NOT supposed to- Then he doesn't listen one bit- just grins at us and deliberately does what HE wants!) Like I said, we DEFINITELY have a toddler now! :)
