12 Ultrasound

David and I got our 12 week ultrasound done today. As you can see from the pics below, everything looks good!

Coming Soon....

In April 2012.
This is the 8 week ultrasound. Most of you found out on facebook, but for those who dont have one.....Im pregnant!

Zoo, Train, Eye Shirt

So David and I originally were going to go to Corpus Christi this past weekend, but because of the drought we are having here in Texas we decided to do a staycation. Friday we took off to take Caleb to the zoo. Caleb had a BLAST, even though we was fighting a cough, runny nose, and slight fever. The zoo made his day!

Caleb did NOT want to get off the Wildlife Carousel. I know hes not smiling in this picture, but he was smiling from ear to ear while the ride was going.

Monday we went to the Katy Mills Mall. While there caleb saw the train that goes around the inside of the mall. He saw the kids getting off and on and would not let us leave without riding the "co co rain". His smile and happiness more than made up for the cost to ride.

Caleb is obsessed with the "eye shirt". Its just a whale shirt with a plastic eye on it. David's mom got this shirt for him a month or so ago. Everyday he requests the "eye shirt". Yesterday the daycare got the wrath of Caleb when they changed his shirt (it was soaking wet from his drool). He was NOT happy and would not stop crying. Luckily I came in shortly after "the incident". He begged to put it back on....so I just put it over his current shirt. Guess Im gonna have to go buy one in every size!

His new thing now is to carry around the white polar bear you see in the pic above. The bear, puppy, blanket, pillow, and sometimes a ball all must be in the bed to fall asleep.

OUCH!!!

Caleb fell at school yesterday. I still dont understand how he managed to hit the area between his lip and nose. I think his pride was hurt more than anything. He wont let ANYONE touch him with medicine. This morning it looks a little better. His forehead and chin are back to normal, but his nose and upper lip are RED. Im sure there will be more injuries in his future....right David??? Remember when you somehow managed to go through the window of your house and wound up with a busted knee??? hehehe

This is Caleb the next afternoon....so 24 hours after falling.

Birthday and Exciting News!!!!

Our baby boy turned 2 yesterday....he's not a baby anymore. He is definitely in his terrible two's though! Caleb has been growing into a combination of cuteness and evilness. Hes talking CONSTANTLY now, which we love (most of the time). When he doesn't get his way, you know it for sure! Most of you know what I'm talking about....throwing himself on the ground, and just throwing an all out FIT! Sometimes David and I will laugh at him while hes doing it, which makes it a bit worse...lol

So yesterday David and I picked him up early from daycare (3pm). I made cupcakes for his friends and teachers at school and we sang Happy Birthday. The teachers took pictures of us, which I will try to post later.

Now on to the exciting news. Drum Roll please...............







No Im NOT pregnant! LOL He went to the potty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If I was there I would have taken photos of the momentous occasion! Go Caleb!!!!!!!!!!! Being a boy, I'm shocked that he did it. Of course his daycare is always talking about the potty, going to the potty, pulling your pants down, picking them up, etc. So we are so excited that he did it! Now, lets see if this was a one time thing.....I have a sneaky suspicion that it was.

Caleb is also moving up! Hes working on transitioning to his new class! They will be doing more potty training (a bit heavier in this class). I will keep you all posted on how he does with potty training and his new class.

Water Fountains

Last Friday David, Caleb, and I went to La Centerra, a local outdoor shopping area here in Katy. It took Caleb about 20 minutes to warm up to the idea of going near the fountains. Even with the other kids playing there, he still wasnt interested. He was more interested in going up and down the steps nearby. Once he relalized how much fun it was, he had a blast!!!
I completely forgot about the fountains there so I forgot a towel and change of clothes. Ive learned my lesson.

So hesitant....

He got BLASTED here!

Haircut

Caleb's getting to be such a big boy! I cant believe he will be 2 in 3 weeks!!!!

He just got his hair cut yesterday. He did really well...not too much crying. We had the girl spike his hair for us...so cute!

Oh No!!!

As you will be able to see in the video, Caleb is genuinely concerned.
