Caleb saw Uncle Jeff again, and met Aunt Danene!

Wednesday, we were blessed to see Uncle Jeff again and meet for the first time Aunt Danene, Uncle Jeff's wife. Caleb was VERY excited to have Uncle Jeff come to see him at his home, he must have repeated it a couple dozen times. He demanded that we change his pants into a pair of jeans that had pockets. He insisted that Uncle Jeff was going to look at his pockets. This was hugely funny when Uncle Jeff actually got to our house, and Uncle Jeff dutifully showed Caleb his pockets in return. Caleb jumped on Uncle Jeff as if he has know him all along. Caleb did his trademark headstand on the couch right next to both Aunt Danene and Uncle Jeff. Caleb started taking his clothes off, which I'd like to say means he really knows you and is very comfortable with you, but it simply means he's ready to be a nudist or it is about 1 hour before bedtime. He was very upset, even to tears, that we wouldn't let him "play naked" which he begged to do. Caleb showed Aunt Danene his room, and the hot stove and made sure he instructed her not to touch because it was hot. He even cuddled with Aunt Danene watching the tale end of movie right before they left. Caleb was super hyper trying to show off and impress Uncle Jeff and Aunt Danene. I think he effectively impressed upon them that he is a very high energy, active boy!

Thursday, Caleb, Josh and I braved the Chuck E. Cheese experience again. During the day, during the week is the only way to go! Caleb had a good time. And I felt like a good mommy having made sure that he had a good time and kept a promise to him. He came away with a baggie of toys and he is still discovering the joys of them.

Yesterday, Caleb and Josh got to spend some well deserved time with Daddy while mommy took care of some appointments. They had a good time. And hopefully many more daddy moments will come in the future.

Today, we visited Cousin Tessa, Uncle Ryan, and Aunt Kristina's house. Caleb was excited to see Tessa. The first thing he did was make a mess of her room. He eventually wore her red dragonfly dress up wings with a white Easter hat with a pink flower on it. He, as always, knows Tessa's buttons to push. He had his silly moments, his naked moments, his non eating moments, but overall he was very well behaved. I'm very proud of my little guy.

Josh was good too. He LIKES sweet potatoes/yams. He does NOT like peas... just like Caleb, must run in the family! He is so good for us. I fed him ahead of time and he let me eat in peace; it was Caleb that needed to go to the potty twice and get naked during dinner for me.

Well, that's the catch up. I hope to have more of Caleb's funny sound bites posted later. I have the written down somewhere around here, just have to find them.
Until Later, good night.
