Two Years Ago...

Two years ago, we experienced one of the greatest blessings we have ever known. We welcomed Caleb Josiah into this amazing and sometimes crazy life we live. It is impossibly difficult to believe that he is passing out of the "baby" stage and moving into the toddler stage. He is so much more wonderful than we ever dreamed possible. We celebrated his birthday with our close friends that we consider family now! He had a wonderful time and loved every minute of the hubbub, food, and playmates. We had a cookout with some of the best burgers we have ever had this side of the States. Brittany and I made a choo choo train cake for him (when you see the pictures just remember the love behind the cake) that he thought was a truck until we told him it was a choo choo train. He ate way too much cake and snuck some sprinkles with Brittany as well. He went to bed one tired, extremely loved and happy 2 year old!



Enjoying his hamburger, baked beans, potato salad, carrots and cucumbers with daddy.


He was so excited to get his very own cake!


He blew his candle out on the first try and then went for the sprinkles!


He loved his etch-a-sketch...and I love that he can draw and I don't have to worry about what he is writing on. He loves to draw and then make it go bye-bye.


Who on earth gave this boy a bat?! He loves it...but everyone else in the room was scared of him.


A set of 100 blocks to build with...wonderful fun to build towers and knock them down...hours spent putting them back in their box!

He loves playing with his friends Abby and Charles. He and Abby were making some music with his new drum and the lid from the blocks that makes a great drum as well!
