March Madness

This one's for you, Grandma Bev:). Sorry it's been SO LONG!

Our favorite time of the year, Caleb's picked up on our love for the game... especially in March:). Our neighbors have a hoop that Caleb LOVES visiting... then there are all the hoops in the neighborhood AND at the school near our house. Everytime we pass a hoop he passionately says, "HOP, hop, hop, hop!" (hoop)... so precious:)

Here Caleb is at the neighbors visiting the "hop"

... and then we pulled out a Walmart gift card from Christmas and took a trip to buy our very own:)

He wanted to reach the hoop SO bad... where there's a will, there's a way. We set the hoop up next to the chair:)

Shoe shopping... had to get some soles fit for outside playing. The day ended well with a brand new pair of Nikes:)

My new shoes:)

I went to the dentist last week. Dr. Kent was fun:)

Momma and I visited the geese

and the park

It's not all always fun and games though. Sometimes I don't listen to Momma or Daddy, so I have to go to time-out. Here I am in time-out for a bit because I know I'm not supposed to play with the remote, but I decided to anyway - even though Daddy asked me to put it down. Afterwards, I gave Daddy the remote.

Nana came to visit last week. We had so much fun!

Sierra came for the weekend too. Here we're eating breakfast with Nana

THEN, we decided to go outside to play in our jammies:)

I tried to bring Sierra to the neighbor's house to show her their sprinkler. It's a TRACTOR and I love playing on it! BUT, she wanted to stay to play with the puppies, so we never made it over.

We love to run around the house together and play games... she's my best friend! Momma caught us playing hide-n-seek in the laundry room:)

Then we shared peas and carrots at lunch

Then Nana brought us to the park.

We love you Nana!

Here we are playing with chalk at the mall.

Sharing DQ with nana... I was sharing, I promise!

Nana made us some play dough for us to play with. She's so fun!

Now I LOVE play dough!

Dancin' with Momma and Nana at music class

The parachute's my favorite!

It snowed last week so we made a snowman... daddy made the snowman in his work clothes - silly:)

Headin' off to church... handsome man:)

Guess what? Grandma and Grandpa come into town tomorrow... I can hardly wait!

Videos... I'll post them all together in the next entry... too many pictures and videos for one entry:)

February Fun:)

We spent a week in Winter Park at Roger and Paula's timeshare. We had fun sledding and playing in the snow!

weeee!

Go Daddy GO!

We spent a few afternoons at a nearby rec. center. They had a sweet pool with ba-ba-ba (basketball), as Caleb would say.

They had real hoops too! ... was tough ripping him out of the gym... LOVES balls and ha (hoops)!

NOTHING better than pushing the ball rack around the gym:)

Picking up :)

Dunkin' with Daddy

Jeff, Kelly and Sierra came to play too!

Kelly, Jeff and I had a chance to go snowshoeing together while D held down the fort during morning nap time.

Paula ventured out on a snowshoe with me:)

Pots and pans in the closet:)... SO fun watching them play together!

Caleb's new favorite: climbing up on his chair (by himself!) to read:)

We had a fun CSU reunion last weekend. Lots of our teammates flew into town; it was great seeing everyone again!

Caleb LOVED Cam the Ram

CSU's new indoor field... we couldn't help but imagine the conditioning possibilities this new facility would have held for us:)

Our neighbors from China visited for dinner last week. Grandma and Grandpa didn't know english; it was a fun experience for us all. What sweet people... reminded me of my time in Thailand and Cambodia - hard not knowing cultural expectations, eating routines and not being able to communicate well. We all had a great evening together though (they have a 15 month-old... 4 days younger than Caleb)!

Blast from the past!! Caleb was insistant on venturing down to the basement... oh the great things we found down there: old toys!!

He loved playing with his old bath duck so much we took it upstairs:)

Getting ready for a morning walk with Momma

We love going for a walk before morning nap time. He's getting a bit big for the Bjorn, but it still works... we chat the whole time. Caleb loves pointing out birds (ba), cars (dis), hoops (ha), trucks (ta-ta), rocks (dis), snow (dis), trees (dis), bunnies (dis), sky (uh), puppy dogs (pa)... :)
