Fall Festival

Wednesday night we (Grandmom and Mommy) took Caleb
to the fall festival at our church. He got to jump in the bouncie,
"play" various games, and see lots of his friends. It was
great, especially because Barrett, his neighborhood friend
also went. The boys had a blast, and were the cutest bear
and dinosaur I've ever seen!

My wild and crazy bear in the bouncie!

Trying so hard to stand up...

He made it up for about 3 seconds before falling on his

face!

This is Caleb's buddy Barrett. Isn't he too cute?!!

Enjoying a freshly dipped Krispy Kreme. You gotta love

the mobile Krispy Kreme dipping station!!

He was totally mesmerized by the clown. (Clowns are not

my thing either!)

Grandmom was a great sport and helped Caleb complete

the tricycle obstacle course. Poor Caleb...his feet wouldn't

reach the pedals.

On your mark...

Skype

We LOVE to Skype! It is such a great idea and so much
fun! Monday night we got to talk to (and see!) PeePaw,
Grandma Beth, and Uncle Drew. It was so much fun, and
as you can see, Caleb really gets into it!


Blowing PeePaw a kiss (I love how Caleb's belly sticks
so far out in this picture!!!)


Giving Grandma Beth a real kiss!

Outside

All Caleb wants is to be outside. He is happy, regardless of
the activity, as long as he is outside. We decided to enjoy the
warmer weather Sunday afternoon and take him to the park.
We all enjoyed the time together!

Playing in the dirty water. He actually had to go home

wearing only his jacket because his shirt got so wet!

Neighborhood Bash

Saturday night our neighborhood had a fall festival two
houses down from ours. There were tons of kids, lots of
yummy food, a bouncie, plenty of riding toys (each kid
brought their own to share,) and a bonfire to stay warm.
It started about 5pm and we ended up staying for over 6
hours!!! (After Caleb went to bed we walked back
down with the monitor for some corn hole and adult
conversation.) We love our neighborhood and loved
getting to know all of the neighbors.

When we first got there, Caleb was a little shy and not

quite sure if he liked the bouncie.

But, after a yummy sugar cookie...

...he was ready for some fun!

Caleb and Brody had a corn hole tournament of their own!

One of our neighbors made this hayride and pulled it with

their lawn mower. It was too cute, and festive!

When it came time for the actual hayride, Caleb wasn't

amused. I had to pull him off after about 5 seconds!

Caleb loved riding Eli's four wheeler!

By 8pm, Caleb was exhausted and ready to crash!

I'm sure you can see why!

Grumpy Bear

Last Thursday evening Caleb and I met the Durst and
Whitworth families at the Zoo for the Halloween Party.
Sadly, Caleb was a real grumpy bear. He didn't want
to wear his costume and pouted most of the evening.
Oh well, I still had a great time!


Trying to pull his hat off


He looked cute, despite the attitude.


Running for the entrance and away from Mommy!

Madalyn, the precious bumble bee!

Jackson, the adorable elephant!

Alice was the highlight of his evening. He was sure to

blow her a kiss!

My attempts at trying to get a picture of him in

front of the sign.

HOW

BIG IS

CALEB????

SO BIG!!!!!!!!

And, such a cutie!

#6

Recently Caleb's hair had become unmanageable, even with
Daddy's hair gel. While I've cut his hair the past 3 times, we
decided that it would be best to leave this hair cut to the
professionals.

He needed a fade... While the Lloyd Christmas look always
made me smile...

we were ready for a change!

Because Caleb is dramatic, fussy, defiant, etc. around me,
we decided it would be best for his Grandmom and Grandma
Tillie to take him today. Even Luke was there for pictures.

Holding "Puppy," his favorite stuffed animals from Grandma

Tillie's house.

Man, they are smart! That is sweet tea (decaffeinated!) in his

sippy cup. He'll sit still for that!

It really took four people...One lap to sit on, one to hold

the sucker, one to take the pictures, and of course, one

to cut the hair. :)

The new, and improved, Caleb!

Pumpkin Pickin'

Today we took advantage of the beautiful weather and met the
Durst family at Huber's farm to do a little pumpkin pickin'. The
second annual trip was a success- both families picked the
perfect pumpkins, and both Caleb and Madalyn had a great
afternoon. I'm sure it will be quite different next year when the
Dursts have their little boy with them as well!

Having fun on the tractor ride

Both were trying to figure it all out

Caleb liked playing the drums on the pumpkins.

Daddy found the perfect pumpkin!

A family picture that actually turned out!
