{big brother}

ah my caleb--aka keeks. Don't ask me where this nickname comes from. My kids have lots of them:) This boy, he is just one of a kind; and honestly i want to be like him when i grow up! he has so many great qualities, and just has this way with people. He seems to know when someone needs a hug, or a kind word. He is so in tune to others, and is one of the sweetest kids i know. The other day we heard from a teacher of his, that he always says hi to everyone in class, and always befriends the kids that are more quiet, or don't have as many friends. As a mom that is the best thing you can hear. It brings tears to my eyes. He is an amazing brother to Z, and i know he will be the same with little {n}. They are so lucky to have such an amazing big brother! I know he will always be there for them, and be someone that they look up to. Caleb i hope you know that i love you to the stars and beyond, and i am so amazed by you everyday. I am so lucky to be your mom~ and thanks for putting up with all the sassy girls in your life!

i adore these picts--I couldn't help but to post a few! he is looking so grown up! and like a mini Finn {we get that he looks like Finn from Glee all the time!}
I actually took these for his b-day picts--even though his b-day is not until Jan 5th! i am a nut...i know, and the nesting aspect isn't helping~ but i couldn't pass up this fabulous weather, and i have a feeling life is going to get a lot busier in the upcoming months with a new baby, christmas, and caleb & z's b-days! whew~

Those comments about your little guy gave me chills. He's a product of you and your husband! : )

And, I've said this a bazillion times, but those kids have the best wardrobe. You have a calling, girl! Stylists would hire you up in a second!

Tatiana said...

What a lucky momma you are! That is every parent's dream: to have a child that they and others are proud of. He is such a cutie too!
And man, you're going to have your hands full! All your kid's birthdays and major holidays are so close together! But I'm sure you're going to have a blast with it!

Aja said...

Oohh, what a sweet boy! How lucky you are to have such a kind and thoughtful son! I'm sure it has everything to do with his great genes and your parenting!
I love that knit hat on him!

You are such a good mommy..This is so true. Caleb really is so in tune with everyones feelings and can always make me happy. I love that boy more than words can express. He is such a special little person and one of a kind. I can't believe how fast he has grown up. I love the pictures I need some!

Lindsay said...

Oh Caleb... we love you so. There will never be another like him- me and Bri always talk about how he's so socially mature and saying things to make people feel good. He's very aware of everyone around him. What 5 year old does that??! He truly is the best kid and such a great example to his sisters and cousins. We love you Caleb!!
Those pictures are daaarling!

Erin said...

my goodness he is handsome!! And he sure does look like Finn! I can't get over how cute he is. What are you going to do when he doesnt let you dress him all cute and stylish?!?! Maybe he always will. . Love his look just as much as I love Z's!
