Calebab

Caleb is getting bigger.

Who me?

I know that will come as a surprise to all of you.

We thought about the putting-a-brick-on-his-head trick to stop him growing and we thought about not feeding him, but then we realised that as he grows he's actually getting cuter. Each week he seems to add some new trick to his repertoire. Last week he learnt to say 'please' in sign language. This week if you tell him to say 'mum' he says 'dad dad dad dad dad dad ' and laughs very cheekily. If we sing 'clap, clap, clap your hands, clap your hands together' he laughs and claps. So we figured we'd let him grow a bit more. Who are we to interfere with the development of cuteness?

He is, of course, the cleverest and cutest 10 month old in the world.

There comes a time when the baby cuteness starts to fade and an obnoxious, yet still adventurous, boy begins to emerge. When that time comes you get things like this happening:

But while it lasts we'll just dwell on this...
