Kalebisms

I post a lot of developmental steps for Chase but I haven't really said to much about Kaleb's third year. Probably because it was a really hard year. Kaleb did not have any difficulty with any transitions in the past whether is was bottle/sippie, paci/no paci, change in schools, big boy beds, etc....until, little brother came along. Wow, it hit him really hard. But, there were also, many other funny and good things that happened last year for Kaleb. He was potty trained, went to a new school, moved into a new house, moved into a big boy bed, and played soccer on a team. He moved from his love for Diego and trains into his love for Superhero's, especially Batman...and at the end of his third year became addicted to MarioKart. He is just like a little Jason and gets so passionate about his hobbies and what he loves.

We've been writing down his funny and sweet comments over the last year and I have just not posted them yet....they are in chronilogical order from 3-4 years.

*"I have Diego underwear on!!!" to the unknown ladies across the parking lot.

*Mom: "Do you know where God lives?"

Kaleb: "No"

Mom: "In heaven"

Kaleb: " I want to go to heaven tonight, Mommy"

*"When I grow up, I'm going to be a Great Bad guy"

*sniff, sniff..."I smell puma"

* Kaleb talking to an older man from church..."What happened to your hair?...Did a tiger lick it off?"

*Dad as he's leaving the bedroom: "Goodnight"

Kaleb: "Don't let the hyena's bite"

* Kaleb: "I only work on Tuesdays"

Mom: "Mommy and Daddy help people's booboos at work. What do you do at work?"

Kaleb: " I protect Sophie from Tigers"

* Mom: " Kaleb, where did you get these booboos on your back?"

Kaleb: "Well, I got this one from riding hippos in India and I got this one in Africa. The Joker was chasing an elephant and I whooshed in and it got me with it's tusk."

* "My tummy's telling me it's not hungry anymore"

* Kaleb's shirt got stuck on his head while he was taking it off and he declared,

"I AM WOMAN!!"

Mom: "Kaleb, do you know what woman is?"

Kaleb: " No, what is woman?"

* Listening to Dave Matthews Band in the car...(Jason's favorite band)

Kaleb: "Wow, this music is fast, but they can't sing very good"

* while walking into the hospital, " I think I hear an E-cock"

Mom: " Kaleb, Do you mean Peacock?"

* "You like pickles? I like pickles! We can be best friends!"

* after hitting his funny bone, "Ouch, my bone is all mad inside"

Mom: "Oh, Is your arm asleep?"

Kaleb: " yea, his eyes are closed like this (1/2 way closing his eyes)"

* Mom: "Ouch, I just got bit by a mosquito"

Kaleb: "Mom, you need to have good skin-muscle like me"

* K: "God made big people and Jesus made the brothers"

Dad: "Kaleb, did God make you a good brother?"

Kaleb: "No, God made Chase a good brother"

*Mom: "Kaleb, I have to call work really quick"

Kaleb: "Does work talk and have skin?"

* singing "Jesus loves me this I know, EIEIO"

* Cousin Nylah crying in the car because she can't hear the movie b/c of heavy rain.

Kaleb: "You should ask God and Jesus to stop the rain"

So, Nylah prays and literally 5 min later it stops raining. Soon, Nylah begins to cry again b/c a toy hits her in the face...and cries and cries..

Kaleb: "Nylah, you better stop crying or God and Jesus are going to make it rain again"

Although, 3 is a hard year discipline-wise...it was a year full of discovery and laughter...Kaleb has really slowed down w/ his funny comments but I'm sure there will be more to post later.

DOUBLE BIRTHDAY PARTY

One good thing about the kids birthdays being a week apart is they can share birthday parties (at least until they object). Since Chase hasn't really built up much of a friend base yet, he shared Kaleb's friends and they all had a blast.
I take the boys here on fridays when its cold or rainy and they both LOVE it.
The first hour the kids got to play in the gym and the second hour they ate pizza, cake, ice cream and cheese balls...and more cheese balls. The cheese balls were a bigger hit than the cake.
It was already past Chase's bedtime by the time it was time to eat his cake so he wasn't too interested. We helped him eat a bit and then he just cried. Poor guy doesn't even like cake.
We had a Batman and Robin theme so I made a Batman cake for Kaleb
and a Robin cake for Chase.
We are so blessed to have two healthy beautiful growing boys. Kaleb spouts out "I'm four!" to anyone he meets now. Oh, he is just too big!
