Caleb Turns 2

Caleb turned 2 a few days ago!  It's been the most amazing thing watching him turn into a little boy.  Here's a little summary of what he's all about these days:
Favorite food:  Chicken Nuggets (although he loves all fruit and many vegetables too - he's the healthiest eater I know!)
Favorite word(s):  Chicken Nuggets (Are you seeing a theme here?  The other day he burst into the room and said, "Hey, Chicken Nugget!"  Sometimes he'll just be playing by himself saying "chicken nugget" every now and then.)
Favorite activities:  Bubbles, playing ball, pushing/riding in his car/truck, being tickled, little piggies

Favorite song:  Fruit of the Spirit from his Character Seeds Worship CD (he can say most of them by memory!)
Favorite book/story:  The Three Little Pigs

Everyday I'm shocked at the new words he can not only say but that he seems to truly understand.  
We're working on obedience.  He's usually pretty good at obeying Mommy and Daddy, but every now and then he has his issues.  His latest thing is we'll be walking through a busy parking lot, and he'll just decide to have a seat - in the middle of the parking lot!  We're working on it...He's also really good at saying he's sorry when he disobeys. 
The morning of his birthday, he asked to pee pee in the potty - and he did!  We haven't yet replicated it, but we'll get there in time.
He has an infectious laugh that attracts people from all around when we're out in  public.
He's loves his blankie, and he can't imagine a nap or going to bed without it.
He can say "I love you," although it comes out more like "I lu."
He gives the best hugs and the sweetest little kisses, sometimes just out of nowhere. 

We celebrated with a birthday party last weekend, and most of his favorite people were there.  It was a happy day that he's still talking about.

 He wasn't quite sure what to do with the smash cake.

We also took Caleb's first trip to the zoo with Ra Ra and Grandpa Jonathan.
