Let's Play!

It has been so fun to watch Caleb's play skills, creativity, and imagination grow! The first time he really caught my attention, was when he took some of his "links" from his baby toys, hooked them together and wanted them hooked to his tractor to make a plow! He's starting to do more imaginative play with his Little People now and his farm. He never ceases to surprise me. He's definitely all boy and would much rather play tractors and wrestle than sit at the table and color, but he has started to show an interest in crayons. The other day, I broke into "teacher" mode and decided we were going to get out the shaving cream and I was going to let him play in shaving cream on our bay window. I was so excited and knew we were going to have hours of fun. I had his shirt off, and we were all ready to get dirty, but the joke was on me! The second Caleb saw me squirt the shaving cream, he took off running for the hills and wouldn't come near me! The closest he came to playing with it was letting me touch one of his fingertips with a little bit. Oh well!


Grandpa Mike made Caleb his own Pigeon Carrier complete with a bird stuffed animal to carry in it. Calebs loves taking care of his "birdie" just like "Mike".



You can see his "plows" hooked up to his tractors. The packing materials behind him were also used for farming implements. Like our toilet paper fields?!?!
