FTW

Monday was my first full day of non-Grandma day care.  I thought I did great, but Mom was so not impressed with my 48 minutes, total, of nap time.

So she picked me up, slobbered on me a bit, and then was all "you're going to be Mr. Cranky Pants tonight Pickle Pickle!"

Since she was so delighted with my nap skills, I decided I better wow her some other way.

Instead of screaming or falling asleep for tummy time, I tried something new.

Tummy time smile FTW.

Bros

One of my bestest peep friends is Griffin.  He was born a few days after me.  He was 4.5 weeks early, so even though we're the same age, I'm still bigger.  I like to show off when he's around.

I showed him and his mom and dad my giggle skills, my pooping skills, and my screaming skills.
 
They were all uber impressed. 

Griffin and I chatted sports.  He was all "wanna arm wrestle?" 



I won that game when I clocked him in the face. 

Then we chatted sports again, cause that's what bros do.







TWINKS!

I scored huge on April 27th.  I was hanging in my favorite chair when Mom came and told me we were going to the Twins game.

I squealed!

Dad wore the jersey I got him for his birthday.  Mom wore her Twins jersey too, cause we're nerds like that.  





I mostly hung with Mom so she could protect me from home run balls (which really meant she was just going to duck behind Daddy)



But staring at Mom's chest kinda sucked, so I watched the game with Dad instead.  The Twins won 7-to-2 against the Rangers. 





Dad's jersey is Harmon Killebrew.  And on the way out, I saw Harmon.  Mom, of course, just HAD to get a picture.




I freakin' love baseball!    It was so worth missing my nap for.


First Sunshine

So, it has been negative twelve billions here, and I don't even know what grass looks like because when I was born, there was snow everywhere. 

But then, I felt sunshine. 






And I died of happiness.












Cousins!

My cousins are the BESTEST.

Nicholas is six whole years old.  Next year he is turning eleventy million.  Almost as old as Mommy!  But he loves me and always holds me and talks to me and makes me smile. 


He makes the funniest faces!


Laughing at my Nicholas



 Another super cool thing about my Nicholas and Christopher is they have fox cubs in their yard!  There are five of them.  All I have in my yard is dog poop.



Ladies Man

I had a play date with three of my girlfriends and they didn't even get jealous.  I'm a total stud.

This is Annika.  She's all sorts of cute!


Even Brody liked playing with Annika




Mom was all "make a silly face"


Then she tried to get us all to smile.  One outta three ain't bad



So after Mom had picture time, I played on Harper and Addie's mat while they took a quick siesta.  I thought looking at Mom upside down was awesome.






Then Godmom Emily and I chilled.







Mom got this great idea that she'd take a picture of her and I.  It was a total fail, but since she tried hard I decided to put it up anyway.  I don't want her to feel bad that all her great picture ideas never get executed.



Finally, my other two girlfriends, Harper and Addie, woke up and we took a group photo.  There were tons of peeps.  Amy, Becca, Emily, Mom, Brody, Harper, Addie, Annika and me.  But I wanna keep you in suspense for now, so I'll post that picture later.  Like when Mom gets it from Amy.

Overall, my play date was awesome.  Brody and I need to stick together. These chicks are everywhere!

Giggling

I was sort of a pickle yesterday cause I didn't want to nap.  Or stop crying.  But I made Mom forget all about it when she and Dad got me ready for bath time.

I'm gonna ask mom for a motorcycle next time I laugh.  And a monkey.

Grandma Day Care


Mom went back to work this week.  She cried and was all "I'm going to miss you so much!"

I pretended that I was gonna miss her too.

Don't leave me Mom!
Sad face.
I even whimpered in my sleep.



But the thing is, I got to go to Grandma and Papa's with cousin Christopher.  Life doesn't really get much better than that!  Except for maybe when Mom gives me Tylenol or Gripe Water.  Or when I poop on Dad and then laugh about it.

First I chilled with Christopher.  We talked Legos and dinosaurs. 



Then I lounged on my favorite toy.  We bounced, kicked, chatted and laughed together.









Then Grandma swooned over me.





I showed Grandma how to give butterfly kisses.


But she tricked me and gave me a real kiss in return.  Complete with slobber.


I then decided to get back to my regularly scheduled job of being cute.



Next week I get Grandma day care two days a week and center day care three days.  The center has friends my age that don't have fur.  I'm gonna have a posse!



The Godfather

Here's a love story:

Caleb, meet Stephen.  Stephen, meet Caleb.  Admire each other. 






 Stephen, spoil your Godkid rotten, starting....now!









After presents, continue with mutual admiration.




Work on "Blue Steel" together.

 


NAILED IT!
 


Smile continuously for Stephen, while he takes your picture, just to stick it to Mom.



Crash and burn.






The end!

Love,
Caleb

Captain Adorable

It's April, which is kind of a big deal around here.  Mostly because I was conceived in April (Mom calls me a tax baby).  Plus, I'm cuter in April than I was in March.  This day was my first walk around my 'hood, so I put on a good show for the neighbor friend-kids.
