Caleb Police Patrol's

Great news for our little chunkster, he finally got to ride his Dodge Charger police patrol vehicle that Grandpa D and Grandma G got him for Christmas last year. Because our little man cannot reach the pedal yet, his cousin Elizabeth was very kind and eager to offer him a lift!

Here are a few pictures I was able to snap :-)


More news... Caleb had his doctor's appt on Weds the 17th instead of Mon the 15th because the doctor's called and rescheduled due to being closed to observe President's day. Caleb's appt this time around was just a wellness checkup. They pricked his fat toe to check for his iron levels, and he is good. I believe they said his level is at 12 and the normal is between 12 and 14. So far, he is a healthy cute little boy. His doctor just loves him. Although, everyone in the office says he is starting to look more and more like his Daddy... and agree that he has my cheeks and nose :-) Oh, and I cannot forget about the hair! They absolutely love his curls!

Other news... (Me)--I start my 9th week of class this Monday and will officially be done with 9 week courses on Sunday. I move over to finish off my bachelors program and will only be taking 5 week courses. I do not start that till March 16th! I am so excited because I am that much closer to graduation. I only have about 15 or 16 classes to go :-).

Other news... (Ryan)-- He has had a few busy weeks of work at CiCi's and will keep getting busier. CiCi's is celebrating their 25th Anniversary of being in business and are having a special on their buffet prices. $3.99 is the price till next Sunday for all you can eat pizza, pasta, salad, and dessert buffet! He also has decided not to do the paper route as it would cut into too much time with our sleep and our family time together. Our second job is picking up a little bit, which is a good thing.

Thats about it :-)

February Rolls In!



Good bye January, hello February.

I am finally in my seventh week of class and cannot wait for it to be over at the end of this month. Caleb has an 18 month check up on the 15th that I am sure he will probably not enjoy; he only enjoys the lollipop part :-). Speaking of Caleb, he has sure been a screaming handful these days. He has gotten better at night in regards to sleeping in his own bed and not waiting up so late for Daddy to get home. He is teething more and more and it has been rough for all of us. The upside to all his teething is finally having a mouth full of baby teeth! He enjoys reading more and more books these days. He always goes to his bookshelf and brings me a book to read to him.


More updates on Caleb, he had his first hair cut the other day and enjoyed it! We took him to a place called Cool Cuts 4 Kids. It certainly was a kid friendly salon. He sat in a cool yellow car, which Ryan and I both believed help keep him occupied versus a regular salon chair. This place even provided us with a free keepsake to remember his first hair cut. I think we all had a good time :-) He was such a good boy during his hair cut.

The weather.... I must not forget to report on the weather... we experienced quite a bit of rain the other week and this week so far it has rained again. The one week it rained for 4 days straight and sadly to report our kitchen flooded. Doesnt look like there is too much damage, but we now know to be more prepared the next time it rains.

Unfortunately because it hardly rains in Las Vegas, drivers out here do not know how to slow down. Drivers consider wet roads as a sign to apply more gas to the pedal. Therefore, Caleb and I have decided to stay home on those wet days just for the sake of our lives and of course because we dont like going out in the rain. :-)The only time we absolutely leave the house when its raining is when we have to go do houses for our property management job.

Well, that is about all that has been going on with us... We hope to report more exciting events in the upcoming weeks and months.
