Standing Up!!

Caleb has been standing himself up on just about everything this past week or so! He is loving his new found skill and he's already letting go of things to see if he can stand by himself. (He can for a few seconds, but then falls to his butt!)

Devyn LOVED this table and now Caleb LOVES this table. Sometimes they stand at it together playing and sometimes Devyn decides she still loves this table and pushed Caleb down so she can play by herself!

He always starts off with his legs so far apart, he can actually walk his legs close together and get himself closer to the chair.

I put the coloring book up on the couch to keep it away from him... and out of his mouth

Unfortunately that did not work! :)

Dedication

On Nov. 8th Caleb was dedicated in the Church. It was a very nice ceremony celebrated by my family, Brandon's family and Caleb's Godparents, Sammi and Chris Cuadros.
On stage for the dedication

Halloween

Devyn and Caleb sitting next to their pumkins!!


Mommy, Devyn and Caleb when carving pumpkins was over

Sitting next to her handy work! We carved one for her and one for Caleb

Our extra adorable little guy!

Using the spoon, she found this much better than using her hands!

She digs in and says... yucky mommy, I spoon! So we got her a spoon to clean out the pumpkins with

Carving pumpkins!

Digging into the candy and our Church's Trunk or Treat

Devyn loving her cotton candy- she somehow conned us into 2 of these! We had to run around the block a few times to burn off all her energy!

Not liking the hood of her dinosaur costume, but she's still super cute

"Hold you" what she always says when she wants to be held. Of course Daddy's always the softie holding his little girl whenever she wants!

Caleb is the blue dinosaur and Devyn's the purple one... I love the matching custome! :)

Just TOO CUTE! :)

Colors!

We've been working with Devyn on learning her colors for what seems like forever~ But she just couldn't seem to pick them up. For the longest time everything was "pink" and then everything was "blue" But she has finally gotten them down. This isn't the best video, but the best I have of her with her colors. She knows yellow, blue, red, green, pink, purple, orange and black. Not too bad for an almost 2 year old!

Playing Together

While having two munchkins can be tiring and stressful, they make everything worth it! They are so fun to watch... I love how they are playing together and entertaining each other more and more as they get older. I know they will be very close as they grow up together
Now that Caleb is an avid crawler, Devyn takes him on tours of the house. She is telling him where to go next! Ha! She always says, "Caleb, are you coming?" She is definitely the boss! :)

Where ever Caleb is sitting Devyn wants to be sitting right next to him! Most of the time it's so she can steal his toys.... but sometimes she likes to play with him or "show" him how to do things. Today you see her working ever so hard on drawing a portrait of Caleb- she has gotten into drawing pictures of the family

Picture of Devyn pushing Caleb in his swing. This provides hours of entertainment!

They sit on the chair and watch "toons"(in the words of Devyn)

Caleb was sitting in his bassinet and Devyn just had to join him.... She loves giving him hugs!

Caleb LOVES being swung by his big sister! He thinks this is so much fun and he just laughs and laughs. I think it's too funny! You can also see how much Devyn loves to dance in this video
