Go Car, Go!

OK, so you've seen how much Kaleb likes to watch the cars go by. Well Karl and I got to talking, and we wondered if he would enjoy watching the cars on TV.........



This is great! I don't have to go out in the 90 degree heat to let him enjoy watching the cars! I'm also really glad he likes this, because Monday we are headed to Michigan to visit Grandma, and there's not much traffic out by Grandma's house.

The Happy Dance.... Special For Aunt Tina

I was telling Aunt Tina about Kaleb's "happy dance" and she requested a video. Yes, folks, THIS is why it takes us an hour to walk around the block. Because Kaleb has to do the "happy dance" for every car that goes by. It's fun to see how many people wave at him. Today we were out, and a guy went by on a motorcycle.... well a few minutes later, the same guy went by AGAIN (in the opposite direction), and when he passed the second time, he revved it up for Kaleb. Kaleb LOVED it. I'm actually thinking about turning on some Nascar racing for him one day, and see if he likes it. LOL


Keeping Up With Kaleb


Here is the little artist at work in the bathtub. Check out the drawing at the left side of the picture. It's hard to see here, but I swear he was drawing a whale. He's been watching Free Willy lately. He just LOVES seeing the whales. He does the happy dance every time it shows a whale or whales.





I decided to make it OFFICIALLY Kaleb's Corner. LOL

Paying Up


Well Karl finally paid up part of the bet. I just love this picture. He reminds me of Jim Belushi on According to Jim. LOL
Now he just has to wear the shirt over to my sister's when we go up to Michigan in a couple of weeks. I'm so excited, I can hardly wait!

Getting SO big!


This picture shows off the new haircut nicely.























YUP.... that's EVERY spoon out of the drawer (well, minus the ones that were in the dishwasher). He took them out one at a time, threw it on the floor, and did the happy dance to the clangy music.


*What the heck, they're washable.

Kaleb and Bryce playing in Bryce's big inflatable toy.
The Dynamic Duo.


What can I say? When he gets into the fridge, he gets INTO the fridge.


*It's the Munroe in him.



















Kaleb helped me clean up after pulling weeds so we could put out the lupine pods Aunt Kathie sent. Kaleb is a Super-Dooper Helper (just like his cousin Maleena).

Kaleb's First Concert

So I got out my viola one night, and after I tuned it, I gave Kaleb my tuning pipe.......

Kaleb's Corner


Kaleb has pretty much taken over this corner of our living room. He plays back there quite a bit. And usually at least once a day, he'll bring me the Scooby blanket and want me to set up his "fort". Again - amazing the fun that can be made with a couple of blankets and a few clothespins.
It HAS to have the door too. It's just not the same without the door.

The Zoo.... FINALLY

Well they say the third time is a charm. And so it was with our trip to the zoo. The first time we were going to go it got rained out. The second time we had it planned, Karl had pink eye, and Kaleb was running a 101+ temp. I took him to the doctor instead (double ear infection). So on June 25th we finally got to the Cincinnati Zoo! We had a very nice day for it. It was not TOO hot.

The elephants were enjoying some hay.






This rhino was quite a character. He got in the water and was splashing his head around.
The Manatee was a BIG hit!



This is my favorite picture from our trip.
















Playtime



I just love this picture (taken June 18).














Kaleb and Daddy playing in the "fort". It's amazing the enjoyment that can come from a card table, a couple blankets, and a few clothespins! (June 18)

All that playing in the fort, they worked up a thirst. Daddy shares his Pepsi with Kaleb.



















MMMM.... Spaghetti. Kaleb's absolute FAVORITE. (June 14)














Playing in the sprinkler June 5.
Kaleb and Bryce playing on June 3. (NO... they're NOT trying to be the Village People).



















Playing in the pool May 30th.
