Recent Caleb Happenings

I thought it was about time to put some new pictures and videos here and to mention what Caleb has been up to recently. One of the most interesting things is that we finally decided that we should try to count how many words he has. So we took a few days and just wrote down all the words he said, so it's not a complete list, but it's a good sampling. We ended up with at least 75 words, which I guess isn't very useful information because I have no clue how many he should have at this point. But I must admit I was pretty surprised. If I had to just guess I probably would have said around 30. I had no idea it was over double that! He's getting to the point now that he's probably adding about 2 words a day to his vocabulary. He repeats just about anything you say. It's fun because we have actually gotten him to say "I love you" now! It comes out sounding a bit like "hello" but he's trying really hard. I'm just waiting for it to come out spontaneously one day instead of after we ask him to say it, but it still melts my heart even though it's prompted.

Well, as promised, here are some pictures and stuff:

I thought this one was cute even though it's probably a month old

Okay, I couldn't resist...this is me meeting Dan Haseltine. :)

Caleb...our future rock star!

This is from one Saturday while I was gone
for work. Apparently he first fell asleep with
his hand actually in the soup.



This is a cute video of him building a tower.

That ought to be enough stuff to make up for the lack of posts recently. :)
