Are you ready for some FOOTBALL??!!

With Superbowl Sunday coming up, Eric has been cultivating sweet Caleb more than usual to get ready for the big game. Here are some cute pictures and videos that document this process. :)

Caleb and Daddy :)

This has nothing to do with football...he just looked
so adorable in his church outfit that I had to take a picture.

Had to get the house in the background!

Riding in the new wagon he got for Christmas!

This was a purse that was given to me by my Aunt Liz and Caleb loves to use it as a tote bag. Cute thing: he put it on, then said, "Go?" and walked to the front door. I guess he's seen me sling my purse over my shoulder then say, "Ready to go?" so many times!

So, for lunch today, I mixed some left over ground beef with a little taco seasoning in it with some mac 'n' cheese. Caleb insisted on feeding himself, and this was the result!

Tiny Dancer

Here is another video from Christmas day after Caleb received a musical reindeer that danced and played the saxophone (from Nana and Grandad Rider). He proceeded to do a jig for us (Caleb, not the reindeer). I realize that at one point the camera is turned sideways, so you may have to angle your head accordingly. Forgive us- we're still trying to figure out our camera. Enjoy!

Cat in a Basket

So, apparently, Josie just made herself at home on our bed...and positioned herself quite nicely on the blanket. Can you tell who is the REAL cat?? :)

Christmastime is (was) here !

Posted by Emily Freeman , Labels: Christmas

Christmas this year was awesome! Caleb had waaaaay too many presents, but it was fun watching him open them. Actually, he enjoyed the unwrapping part, but then got bored and moved on to something else. He got a lot of books, a red wagon, clothes, toys and lots of time with family! I tried to put all of these pictures in order, but it was too tedious, so I'll just make sure I put a caption with each of them!

Unwrapping a BIG book on fish from the Hartley family-- he LOVED it!

Caleb wouldn't wear his hat for the picture, although he does have one!

Grandad with the Second Annual Joke Joke thing!
(This one's about Miss Piggy's latest movie)

Caleb with Nana Shirley and the dancing reindeer!

The absolute cutest movie! I caught Caleb's reaction to seeing
the Christmas tree and all the presents...you'll see which one he goes for first!

That dreaded toy...the "popper"! I got it for a few bucks
at Wee Trade last year and he loved it! I remember having one of
my own as a child, so it's neat to watch Caleb play with it too!

Caleb actually wearing a Santa hat!

Caleb in Bennett's drum bag!

Caleb loved playing with Grandma's village...especially the white truck parked out front!

Caleb working in his new kitchen (it was actually mine as a child)...
his reaction to the phone was priceless...I could tell he was thinking
"Why does this phone have a string on it?" (ours are all remote phones).
Caleb actually pretends to cook and sometimes jabbers at us as if to
instruct us about what exactly he is doing. Rachel Ray would be proud of his
30 Second Meals!
