Caleb's 1st Birthday

Our baby boy is one!! It is so hard for me to believe. I'm a little sad as I look at these pictures and think where has the past year gone? Caleb has been such a joy to watch grow. He is a great baby ;technically I guess he is now a toddler, who is super laid-back! He gets that naturally from his Daddy! He is very active and a very proficient crawler who has no interest walking just yet! He loves trucks and balls and it amazes me how he automatically knew what to do with them. He is so different than Kennedy and it is so neat to see how God creates men and women so different, even little babies. He has two words, Daddy and Bye-Bye, I'm patiently waiting on Momma! He plays rough, laughs when I tell him no, terrorizes our dog; Katie Belle, and is already All Boy!! We love you, Baby Dinosaur, Baby Snarecrow, Brother Bear (Kennedy's nicknames for him). We love you Caleb David!!! Happy Birthday Big guy!

Family Vacation

We took a family vacation down to Seacrest Beach, Florida last week and had such a great time!! I was a little nervous about such a long trip in the car with such small kiddos, but they did wonderful. It was well worth the long hours in the car. We made some great memories with our kiddos. We stopped off in Prattville, Alabama the first day and spent the night with our friends, The Wittendorfers, and celebrated Josef's 2nd Birthday! Camille was Kennedy's first best girlfriend and they are always excited to see each other. We headed out that Monday for the beach and could not wait to get there! We spent the next five days playing in the sand, relaxing, and exploring the area. Kennedy loved playing in the sand!! Caleb was a little overwhelmed the first few days, but really warmed up to the sand and was crawling all over the place by the third day! It was so nice to have no plans and just spend time together. I'm a huge planner, but it was great to have none!!! That Friday, The Wittnedorfers joined us for the last weekend of our trip and helped us celebrate Caleb's 1st Birthday! I can't believe my baby boy is 1!! We had so much fun and can't wait to go back.

Community Group Retreat

We took a community group trip to Petit Jean last weekend and had a lot of fun visiting with good friends, watching the kids play, and hiking. The weather was cold & rainy on Saturday, so we spent the day indoors playing games and visiting. Sunday turned out to be a perfect day for hiking and the waterfall was gorgeous from all the rain we had the night before. Kennedy was a trooper and hiked the rocky two miles to the falls and back only having to be carried a little of the way. We were very impressed. Caleb had it made riding on Daddy's back!

Sleepover with Cousins

Kennedy and Caleb had a sleepover with their cousins last night. We had a great time walking to the park, playing outside, making pizza & cookies, playing dress-up and pushing Caleb in the doll stroller!! Fun times.

Wye Mountain

Love going to Wye Mountain each year. We've taken Kennedy the past four years. I can't believe how much she has grown in such a short time. It was so fun to look at the past three years compared to this year! It will be fun to look at Caleb next year compared to this year. He was not feeling so hot this year. I didn't know he was running a fever until we got home. Poor guy, no wonder he wanted nothing to do with these flowers or the camera! The weather was perfect and Kennedy had a blast running around with her buddies. This was by far the hardest year to get a picture of her being still. The first year she could not sit up yet and I'm holding her up, wow!! Now, I'm asking her to slow down and look at the camera. How fun it is to watch my babies grow! God is so good!!! March 2006
