It was four years ago today that I got to meet my little Caleb for the first time. There was a huge snow storm, and we went into the hospital Jan 4th around midnight. After a lot of waiting, and a c-section later, my little Caleb arrived at around 6:30 AM on January 5. He was perfect! He had dark skin, and lots of dark hair--and was pretty hairy in general--give him a break--he was a couple weeks early--he needed the insulation. He was so tiny, and I couldn't believe that he was mine--and that I was a mom. Four years have past, and I have enjoyed every moment that I have been able to be Caleb's mom. I love him more than words can express. He has such a presence and joy about him. He is the life of the party--and he is often the entertainment--along with his sidekicks--Zoee and Mylee. He is full of love and fun--which is so contagious. Everywhere we go he talks to everyone and charms them all. He is full of personality, and is such a great friend. He is an amazing brother and cousin--and an even more amazing son. He helps me all the time--and loves me unconditionally. I am so lucky to have him. Happy Birthday Sweet Boy! I can't wait to see what the next year brings.
Caleb 2 weeks

You know I loved this little vintage tee with The Beatles on it! I'd take one :)
We had a low key little party for Caleb on Saturday. Caleb and his bud Ryder went to the movie, played some games at the junction, and then we had my fam over for dinner, cake and ice cream. I struggled again--in that I didn't take hardly any picts! You can't even tell my fam whole fam was there :) Ah well! We had a great time! Thanks for all the fun gifts :)

the kid loves transformers--more than meets the eye~I didn't do fondant this time :)



Caleb was yet again in the Toy overload trance. I could hardly get him to eat or even look at me--too many fun toys to play with :)

I got all teary eyed when I read this post Shar. I remember the day of his birth like it was yesterday and those little eyes looking up at us in the elevator. I'll never forget that! He really has been so much fun and is honestly the BEST kid ever. I just can't imagine life without our Caleb boy! I love him oh so much!!
Happy Birthday Caleb! Sharstin you almost made me cry with your post. Although I do cry at the drop of a hat these days. I love your transformer cake and your snow pics are getting me excited for Utah. Now it is up to Ben to have the final word, Ive pretty much made up my mind that I need an adventure.
