Talking Like Crazy
It's never a dull moment around our house! Caleb is constantly asking me to "go outside minute." (Can you tell that I always say, "In just a minute...") :-) He doesn't understand that it's like 147 degrees outside, it's incredibly humid, and his MOMMY IS PREGNANT! I'm thinking we need a swingset and a slide inside the house. It sure would make things easier this summer! :-)
On Friday, we had our 3rd swim class and Caleb did great. He didn't fuss or cry one single time. There was even smiling. :-) It was such a relief that he had fun. Now he asks all the time to go to the "wimmin poo." When mom and dad say "no" because it's raining (like yesterday), he wants to call one of his grandparents and ask them if he can go (I'm not sure how at 21 months old he knows to go to the reinforcements!). Yesterday he asked his Mimi over and over and over to go to the "wimmin poo." Besides the fact that she lives 1000 miles away and couldn't take him anyway, mommy and daddy had already said no. He wasn't very happy about that!
We seem to have gotten over the Elmo obsession and have moved on to trucks, trains, and airplanes. He is SUCH a little boy. We never have really tried to get him interested in anything in particular, we just see what he likes and go with it. Ever since our trip to Detroit where he flew on an airplane and saw a train for the first time, he can't get enough. Planes fly over our house regularly, and if he even hears one, he starts looking for it and saying, "hear o-plane."
And now that summer is here, he wants a "pop coo coo" (popsicle) about every 5 minutes. :-)
We're trying to keep Caleb in worship service with us as long as possible on Sundays. Yesterday he made it through the middle of communion and decided to go lie down in the aisle. It was time to go back to his class! I started toward him and he took off running to the front of the auditorium. I thought I was going to have to chase him on stage, but he stopped after a few pews! As we were going out the door he said, "bye bye" to everyone.
