Florida 2011

Our first big family vacation went great! We had a lot of fun just hanging out at the beach, swimming at the pool, and soaking up some sun.

Ft. Lauderdale, FL

Waiting patiently for some ice cream.

Jumping some waves with Dad.

When we finally got Caleb to wear his sunglasses, he thought he was pretty cool!

Looking for airplanes...

We played A LOT of basketball in the pool.

At first, he didn't want the sand touching his feet. It took a trip or two to the beach before he warmed up to the whole idea of sand getting all over him.

At dinner with Dad. This place was an open-air restaurant with live music. Caleb blended in just fine!

Kindermusik Spring 2011

We have wrapped up another Kindermusik semester. Caleb moved up to the next level this year, and after a rough start, he loved it! He was the youngest kid in the class by at least 3 months. Mrs. Bruno was his teacher again, and he adores her!

Here Mrs. Bruno is "swinging" Caleb, one of Caleb's favorite activities.

Using the sand blocks to make music.

They used scarves a lot this semester to play hide and seek, as well as watch the movement they make. Again, a big hit with Caleb.

Each day there is a story time. Caleb usually does a pretty good job of listening, and most of the time makes his way on to Mrs. Bruno's lap before the story is over.

The big parachute is another hit with the kids. The adults stand around it and wave it up and down as the kids run under. All set to music, of course!

At the end of each class, the kids wait their turn for a sticker. It took all semester, but Caleb finally learned to wait patiently for his turn for a sticker.

I've been behind on the updates, so I hope to get a lot of pics up in the next week. These are just a few random ones from the last month or so.

Caleb LOVES to drive Grandpa's truck, here he's trying out his sunglasses as well!

A month or so ago he got into the pantry and found our stockpile of Gatorade. He spent quite a while taking them all out and lining them up. He even helped put them back when he was done.



A lot of times I'll find him in his room just reading his books. He has just recently been able to climb into the big chair by himself.




Caleb also got to go to the track with Dad, and he got to take his Honda too! Andy said he had a blast, and kept it on the track pretty well. I hope to have a video up soon!

Easter 2011

Here are some pics from Easter. We had a great day, and after 3 egg hunts, Caleb got the hang of it!

WOW!! Look what the bunny left me Mom!!

This 'N' That

These are a mix of pictures from the past month or so. We're having a lot of fun playing outside and enjoying the warm weather. It's going to be a fun summer!

Caleb's cousin Olivia came to help celebrate Aunt Kristen's bridal shower. They had a lot of fun playing later in the afternoon!

Giving "5's".

Grandma and Grandpa Zellers came to visit!!

It's always a good day when Caleb's good buddy Great Grandpa Markle is around!
