Trunk or Treat - Halloween 2010

Happy Halloween!

Given Caleb's obsession with cars, naturally he would pick a race car driver costume for Halloween. He looked soooo cute. We actually went to 2 different Trunk or Treats (one on Friday and one on Halloween night). So he totally scored on candy. His bucket was overflowing so much that I had to dump some candy into my purse to make room for more! He loved it!

Happy 85th Birthday, Great Grandma!

My grandma celebrated her 85th birthday with us this weekend. Happy Birthday, Grandma! We love you very much.
P.S. I hope you didn't mind Caleb blowing out the candles for you! :)

Pumpkin Carving Party '10

Jan & Ljiljana had another successful Pumpkin Carving Party this year. We always love going to their parties. John and Caleb both won prizes for their carvings. Caleb's won "cutest pumpkin". :)

We also got to meet their newest addition, Merlin! He is one adorable little puppy!! I wish I had a good picture of him from the party but as you may know, it's not easy getting a puppy to pose (let alone sit still) for a picture! :)

Laundry basket

One of Caleb's favorite things to do is play with the laundry basket! I love this picture. He's such a funny kid.

You my best fwiend

Today was a great, great day. Caleb & I went to the park, the mall, then back home to wrestle and race cars. When we were wrestling he bonked his head into mine and it REALLY HURT! He said, "Sowwy, Mommy" and kissed it all better. Then he gave me a huge hug and said, "I wuv you, Mommy. You my best fwiend." The way he said it was so sincere and honest. It was so unexpected and touching that I started to cry and I thanked God for answering my prayers to become a mommy and for giving me such a wonderful son. He's everything I asked for and more. He's such a funny, smart, loving little boy. I am so blessed and thankful.

I love you, Caleb!

Family Camping Trip

We went camping again! Exact same place (Idyllwild), even exact same camp site #805. This time we went with my whole family. We had a great time and made lots of memories. The kids all had a great time too. Here are some pictures fom our trip. Mommy & Caleb by the horses at the campground.
Daddy & Caleb on a big rock.

The girls were much more interested in the big pine cones than Caleb was. As usual, he prefers cars.

Feeding the baby horse. So cute!

Yummy watermelon!

Lounging in the hammock with Daddy. This is the life!!

Sleepy Picture

Caleb usually comes into our bed at some point during the night/early morning. On this particular day I woke up early and let Lilo out of her crate and she snuggled up in bed with her favorite boy. I couldn't resist taking their picture. They have it rough, don't they?
