"I Steffy"

The other day Caleb wanted to play with the camera case. I took it away and told him that it was Mommy and Daddy's. He showed me that he wanted to put it on his shoulder to go bye-bye. I reminded him of his bags downstairs that he can play with, not mine. He came upstairs with a purse I got as a present from one of my families. It is a Michael Jackson red and black leather with silver studs... pretty stylin' - no wonder I gave it to Caleb to put in his toy box. Well, he came up with that purse on his shoulder saying "I Steffy". Stephanie was his babysitter last summer and she always brought a purse here with her. It was pretty cute until we had to go to day care... he wanted to bring it in to show his kids. I let him carry it in- but took it to the car the second he let it go. It has been in the car since so he won't carry it around anymore...

A couple days later he brings up the baby doll we gave him when I was pregnant with Carter. Yesterday he went downstairs to play and after hearing nothing for awhile I was pretty nervous. I snuck down and "caught" him sitting on the chair with a bunch of random items all around him, his baby on his lap and he was reading a book! I was flabbergasted! He was actually being "good" and he was reading to his baby! precious! When Caleb and I left to go to my kids' tackle football games yesterday he had daddy "babysit". Since Carter was napping his baby had to, too. Then this morning he had to set him baby up by the door when we left for day care. He has been keeping pretty close tabs on it this afternoon.

Caleb has his 2nd soccer game tonight, unless it gets rained out- which is a likely possibility. I will try to remember the camera this time and post some pictures if I get any good ones.
