Family picture at his birthday party at The Little Gym!

I can't believe Caleb is THREE!!! He had a great birthday and party, with lots of friends and family who came out to The Little Gym to celebrate!!! His party was a Mickey Mouse theme, and he loved it. Bryan and I bought him a Mickey scooter which he seems to like a lot. We had to go searching all over town for a helmet to fit his head...and ended up with one designed for ages 8+! What! He had his 3 year well child visit a few days later, and is in the 98th percentile for height and 82nd for weight. His doctor said he looked like a very healthy boy! :) I thought I'd write a little about the things he's saying and doing right now, since I've neglected this blog way too much lately.

*He is attending his first VBS at a friend's church this week and seems to really be enjoying it. Mommy is enjoying having 3 hours to herself...can you say, SPOILED? ;-)
*His favorite color is green
*His favorite number is 2 (although this may change now that he is 3)
*He loves Mickey Mouse, Diego, Curious George, and the Cat in the Hat
*He loves playing outside...riding his scooter, his trike, playing in his sandbox, going to the park, etc.
*He likes plain spaghetti and LOVES breadsticks. His favorite restaurant is a toss up between "the Tomato place (Fazoli's)" and Jimmy John's.
*He is now in the Preschool environment at church...I think he'll really like it there!
*He LOVES to dance, and has QUITE the moves.
*He can count to 20, but occasionally leaves out 17-18 ;-)
*He can count to 10 in Spanish (thanks Handy Manny)
*He also loves to sing
*He likes to whisper in our ears and have us whisper in his
*He doesn't seem too sure of this whole "new baby" thing just yet...
*He loves his flip flops
*He could sing the ABC's all.day.long.
*He is fully potty trained and ready for preschool in the fall!
*He is testing more limits lately
*He won't eat anything green to save his life...sigh...thank goodness for vitamins
*He likes taking pictures
*He loves being the center of attention around people he's comfortable with
*His confidence grew by leaps and bounds this winter during his semester at The Little Gym. Can't wait tor the Fall semester to begin!!!! He learned to do forward rolls, walk on a balance beam, make baskets in a basketball hoop, hang from rings, walk on uneven bars, and a bunch more things!! It was amazing to see.
*He loves to be the "helper" in those kinds of environments. Definitely a pleaser.
*He likes to hold hands with his friends
*He has an amazing memory
*He says the funniest things on a daily basis...I need to start blogging them!!!

Phew! That's all I can think of at the moment!! I am just loving seeing Caleb grow and change into such a neat little person. He is a boy who loves his mama, and that brings me great joy. I love him so much, and can't wait to see what this next year brings. :)
