This little boy is just growing up right before my eyes! He says something new every day and is just loving life right now. This morning, he was playing with Bryce on the iPhone and said, “Can I hold it, Daddy?” and one of his favorite things to do is help me sweep our floors with his pint size broom and dustpan–such a sweetheart. We recently returned from a 2.5 week stay in North Carolina where he had a fantastic time playing with various cats and dogs, eating popsicles, and going on walks with Grandma and Grandpa Austin. Pictures from NC to come shortly.

A bit of what he’s been up to recently:

This one definitely has a love for his toy tractor, trains, and trucks. I love the sounds he makes to accompany them.

This picture makes me laugh. On the one hand, he looks so grown up--almost like he's delivering a speech. On the other hand, he's wearing a diaper and has stickers all over his naked belly.

This is what happens when you share a room with your sister and she decides you need a toy or two during nap time.

Sour Cream. That's all I have to say about this picture.

Well, we already knew that he loved his blankie. And, yes, those are pink sheets.

See? I told he was all grown up. Not too grown up for lots of hugs and kisses, though, much to the delight of this mother.

Should be a fun and active summer with Calderoo in tow. I’m planning lots of time at the playground, the pool, and in the canyons. Yay for summer!
