Caleb recently had his first smoothie, which he loved! I made it with soy milk, frozen blueberries (picked this past summer from my parents' bushes) and frozen apples (also picked this past summer from my parents' trees). The fruit was so sweet I didn't have to add any sugar. I was even surprised at how good it was!
My baby brother Luke recently had his 26th birthday celebration. Caleb for some reason doesn't say "Happy Birthday!" instead he says "Happy Birthday Cake!" He was so excited that he got to blow out the candles. I was a little concerned about him being that close to nuts, but Uncle Luke paid careful attention to his safety.
I made Caleb his first wheat, dairy, egg-free pizza to have for Uncle Luke's birthday as that was what the rest of us were having (only with wheat, dairy and whatever else!). As per his usual excited self with others around, he was much too busy to really pay attention to the pizza, but he enjoyed it for lunch the next day!
Caleb and I made allergy free muffins the other day using a recipe posted on Martha Stewart's website. He loved helping put in the muffin liners just about as much as he loved eating the muffins!
Caleb loves spending time with his Mamaw- she is so good to read him stories and fix his stuffed animals when they accidentally hurt themselves by pulling a seam. And this is Caleb's newest smile to pose for pictures. Can anyone say "cheese?"
Our latest treat using Enjoy life allergy-free chocolate chips- Chocolate covered popcorn! Another winner for Caleb (Mommy and Daddy too!).
On my last post I mentioned that Caleb would count and often say, "Let's start with one." Well, now he says, "Let's start with twenty." He isn't able to correctly count from 20 by himself, but he loves to repeat after me or Jeremy. Funny the things kids say! One of the sweetest things Caleb has been doing lately is kissing my belly and loving on baby brother. He will say with prompting, "I love you Eli" as we have finally decided on the name Elijah Henry but are pretty sure we will call him Eli. Caleb of course pronounces it E-Yi (with a long I). He should really be given credit for the name as when we would ask him between either Silas or Elijah, he would most often choose Elijah.
