All About Kaleb!

I've been meaning to do this for a long time! Kaleb is growing and changing so much everyday! Here are a few things about him right now... (I will probably add more as I think of them!)

~Loves to wave bye-bye and blow kisses…to everyone…everywhere! If he finds either of our sets of keys at the house he'll grab them, wave and say "bye-bye" and blow kisses to us while heading to the front door!
~Loves to bang things…anything…he got a toy hammer for Christmas and likes to “fix” everything in the house…our house will never be the same again. He got a hold of the remote control the other day and started banging it on the front door.
~Loves to eat! He always wants to eat…as soon as he wakes up in the morning and from his naps…and anytime he sees food, anyone else eating food, anything that resembles food, etc. He’ll sign the word eat which is bringing his fingers to his mouth.
~Loves to feed Maverick…so Maverick loves him! He will share just about anything except his yogurt bites by throwing it on the floor.
~Loves to sing and dance…When we sing the Itsy Bitsy Spider he’ll make his spider climb up the water spout and fall down (he’ll slam his hands down onto whatever is in front of him to give it that extra special effect). His other favorite song is If You’re Happy and You Know It…claps his hands right along with the song. We’re working on stomp your feet now!
~Loves to throw things! Especially balls, but anything will do! That’s a fun game to play…Kaleb throws things and Mama and Dada pick it up and give it back to him!
~Loves to climb already! He has figured out this walking thing and is now onto climbing. Climbs on boxes, toys, the toy box, all his cars, his chairs, etc. I have to watch him all the time!
~Loves to play outside! Ask him, “Do you want to go outside?” and every time he will respond “shyeah!” (I guess that means yeah?!?) and run to the front door. And you better be ready to take him outside to play!
~Words he can say: mama, dada, ball, dog (do), shoes (shs), hi, bye-bye, bath (ba), nana (could mean nana or banana), papa, night-night (ni-ni), car (ca)
~Things he can do: blow on his hot food, get a tissue and wipe his nose when you tell him “wipe your nose”, go to the changing table when I tell him “lets go change your diaper”, wave bye-bye, blow kisses, smiles a big smile every time he sees a camera, blow bubbles in the bathtub, purr at the cat (and call it a dog), clap his hands, play peek-a-boo
~When he’s tired, Kaleb will let you know! He will go get his “blankie” wherever it is, come find you and sign the word “eat”, meaning he wants his milk. When you give him his milk he will walk into his bedroom and stand by the rocking chair and wait for you to hold him while he drinks his milk. I’ll rock him while he tries with all his might to stay awake enough to finish his milk. When he finishes the milk and you think he’s sound asleep…think again. He lights up! Talking, waving, kissing, hugging, smiling, laughing…this is when he’s the sweetest! Eventually I just have to put him in his crib and he’ll talk himself to sleep.
