17 Months

 Caleb all bundled up going down the slides for the first time...he loves the slides! 



 Field trip with mommy to Campbell's Nursery

Caleb is 17 months old, he is full of life!  We are so thankful for him, and that the Lord has sustained his life and kept him safe and healthy.

What is our little guy up to now that he is 17 months old?  Well, in the past month he has learned to say more and more!  He says "all done" (a done) and "there you go" (there go).  He also has been repeating more words that he hears us say, it's so adorable.


Caleb has sure been adding to his dance moves lately.  We love to watch him boogie, and he loves to show off!  He loves music, and will dance to the beat.  It's so cute to watch him focus really hard while moving his limbs to the beat.  He even has the Elvis leg move down! We really need to get that one on video.

He is on the move, if he isn't dancing he is walking or almost running around here, there and everywhere.  We love that he is walking and able to get around so freely now, it's a joy to watch him...and also exhausting! :)

Caleb LOVES Toy Story 3.  He watches it everyday.  So do we.  We have all of the lines memorized.  Toy Story 3 will always be near and dear to our hearts, we will probably even watch it when Caleb goes off to college someday, and shed tears thinking of the times we watched it with our little boy.

We see God working so much in Caleb's life, even now as he is so young.  We pray that he may have the fruits of the spirit now...love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness and self-control.  It's amazing also to see his love for others really grow and watch him reach out to show love to others, even at his young age.  We see God's hand in his life and His faithfulness to hear our prayers for his life.  Most of all, we pray that Caleb will know that he is a sinner, in need of Jesus to save him, and to surrender his life to Jesus at a young age so that he may know Him and walk with Him all the days of his life.
