Just some fun picks :O)
Putting on his own socks. (Notice he already had a blue pair on and decided to put this white pair on over them…LOL!)
Caleb’s Underground City
Truett’s meditation sleeping pose :O) (This is when we know it’s really deep sleep…LOL!)
Caleb is so helpful and fun :O)
Caleb likes to wear his dad’s hats and scarfs :O)
I didn’t even pose him this way. I was just fortunate enough to catch this natural pose :O)
And this is Truett ready to go to church :O) The blue hat is the one from the hospital b/c it is still the only hat that truly fits his head so I put a bigger cute one over it :O)
Truett is now 7 weeks. He has started smiling and we think he has laughed at least once. Caleb is the best big brother. He pats Truett to comfort him when he cries. He helps with diaper changes and feedings. He even shares his toys :O)
Life has been super busy adjusting to having 2 boys under 2 years old. Our families both came in to help us after Truett’s arrival, which was such a blessing. Sorry it’s been so long since we’ve posted but the blog has been less of a priority than just staring at Truett, trying not to miss a moment of this glorious time. Hope you enjoy the pictures of the past 7 weeks including Christmas and New Years :O)

It’s getting cold outside and retailers seem to have an interesting idea of what people might want to wear this year to keep them warm. Check out these fun selections that Caleb is modeling :O)
Cary’s family and Jyll’s brother came to town to celebrate Thanksgiving with us! We had such a fun time, mostly sharing embarrassing baby stories about Cary and his cousins. We are thankful for time with family! We are thankful for space to share with them! We are thankful for great food! We are especially thankful for the new little one that will soon be joining us! :O) We are very thankful for the men and women who serve our country so we are free to enjoy all these blessings! God Bless Our Troops! May they return to their families soon so they don’t miss any more holidays at home!!!
Caleb usually scarfs his bananas down so quickly that he does not even seem to consider playing. So imagine my surprise when I came back around the counter to find the images below :O)
He has sorted shoes before but never food. I’m constantly amazed by my son :O)
Most, if not all, adoptive families these days celebrate the day they added a child to their family through adoption. Everyone decides on the day differently. It can be the day you first met your child, the day the court made your adoption official, the day you arrived home with your child, etc. We chose the day we met Caleb in Taiwan. That was November 17, 2008. Of course we are going by Taiwan time :O)
For us this is an intimate celebration for the 3, soon to be 4 of us, because it was the beginning of the creation of our little family. We celebrated this year at home and gave Caleb a gift from Taiwan. We shopped for 18 small gifts to give Caleb when we celebrate this day for the next 18 years, which was an idea we got from a parent in our adoption class :O)
Congrats! Love ya'll.
