Scarred for life...

I’m sure that it was NOT my fault. It couldn’t have been my fault.

The only thing I did was put my beloved son in his chair this evening. I only did it so that my son’s mother and I could have a nice relaxing evening meal. Was it truly my fault that the buckle on the chair happened to pinch the ever-living-poo out of my boy!? Caleb SCREAMED and cried and Allison said, “did you pinch him?” I looked down and there was the chubby little fat baby leg all mangled in the plastic buckle. I quickly unclasped the buckle, but it was too late. I’m sure my son is damage both physically and emotionally for the rest of his life. His future career as a mid-upper thigh model is ruined.

Below is a picture of Grandma with Caleb in the horrible chair. See how happy he was, those days are now gone forever…


Below is a picture of the evil and completely defective clasp. Picture a chubby baby leg pinched in the clasp. Can you feel Caleb’s pain!?


Below is a picture of the boo-boo on Caleb’s leg…

Busy Week...

It has been a busy couple of days for my family. Wednesday my mom, dad and sister came into town for what was supposed to be a simple doctor’s appointment for my sister. Instead it turned into a pre-op appointment! The doctor recommended that they go ahead and remove her non-functioning shunt and by the way…let’s do it tomorrow. SO…my sister had her fourth brain surgery on Thursday.

As you can see from the next picture, her hair was only now beginning to grow back from the last surgery...(left to right: Grandma Mimi, Caleb and Aunt Sarah)

This is a picture of Sarah taken in the ICU after she got out of surgery (sorry for the bad quality…it’s taken with my phone)…

This is a picture of Sarah’s scar…I took her picture while she was taking a nap…don’t tell…

While Sarah was being pampered at the hospital, my dad was babysitting Caleb. Allison had her first class of the semester on Friday and I had my second teeth cleaning so my Dad “volunteered” to watch Caleb while I was at the dentist.

Below is a picture of my dad trying to feed Caleb a bottle…

My dad took Caleb out on the front porch and some of my neighbor’s grandkids came over to see baby Caleb.

The first picture of Caleb and the boys…(left to right: Hudson, Caleb, Brock, Brittain, and Ryne David)

After I took the first picture, I commented that Caleb had his head down, so they tried to help him by lifting his head for him. It was too funny…

I thought the following was the best picture of the boys…

The next few pictures were too cute not to post…

So far Caleb actually likes his new highchair...

And Caleb LOVES his bouncy chair...

This is a picture of Caleb in his mommy’s lap…FINALLY he dozed off…


Last, but not least, a picture of the luckiest woman in the world…

Jump!

Caleb has been jumping or at least pretending to jump whenever anyone holds him. We try to encourage our son in all developmental activities, so we went and bought a jumping chair. Even though Caleb was a little tired when we finally got home, he was a natural. While we were at the store, we also purchased a high chair. It looks perfect in our little dining room...don't cha think?
Enjoy the pictures and video...
