I finally got it! I have been trying for about a month to get video of Caleb singing, "It's Too Late To Appologize." It's so adorable. You definitely need to pause the music to hear it (scroll down on the right hand side and hit the pause symbol).
Caleb sings all the time these days. Sometimes, he is a little off on the lyrics. What he comes up with is still really cute, though. Here's a few of Caleb's versions:
Hickory, Dickory, Dock: "Markety, Markety, Dock."
Eeny, Meeny, Miney, Mo: "Meeny, Miney, Mo. Petch a tiger by a toe. Listen, holler sing and go. Meeny Miney mo." (I know you're singing the song in your head right now trying to figure out the real lyrics!)
And the infamous, I've Been Working on the Railroad: "I've been working on the rainbow, all the ling-dong day."
He also just narrates life through song these days. He often just changes the words to songs he already knows. For instance, right before the above video was taken, we were singing the song and he stated that his food was hot. He then sang, "It's too late to appolo-hot. It's too laaaaate."
It's definitely contagious, and our house is more musical than ever these days.

Caleb Walking in Water
Jeff and I have always seen the importance of water in Caleb's life. Let's face it, gravity is not Caleb's friend. Putting him in the water is the one way we can take gravity away from thrusting its forces on his little body. He often does things in the water before he is able to do them on land, such as standing independently. Below are some of his latest tricks in the spa. Enjoy.
Is this a preview of things to come on land? We're not sure. But we do know how much he enjoys spending time in the water and being able to do things that he can't when gravity gets ahold of him.

You can now call her DOCTOR Auntie Shana!
I got wind that my original post was too long, so I have revised it a bit. There was just too much that happened to commemorate this amazing accomplishment by my sister.
When Shana told me about 6 or 7 years ago that she wanted to go back to college, I was very supportive and happy for her, but realized that it would be difficult as she was already the mother to two wonderful boys. She then went on to tell me that she wanted to become a pediatric dentist. Well, I thought she was downright crazy! Not only did she graduate dental school last weekend, but she took them by storm, earning 5 awards on her way out.

Caleb's Newest Yoga Pose
Our Spastic Cat
I love Bumblebee. She is a very sweet cat and has been a wonderful addition to our family. But she is definitely the biggest SPAZ in the house!

A Bittersweet Anniversary
At the risk of being redundant, Jeff and I want to express how incredibly blessed we feel to have such a wonderful community of people surrounding us. You are there with us to celebrate the successes and to help support us during the difficult times. Whether you are family, close friends, or acquaitances, thank you. We are forever grateful for all your prayers, your well wishes, your laughter, your tears, and your love for our boy.

An MDA Weekend!
We had a wonderful and heartwarming weekend, all revolving around the Muscular Dystrophy Association. On Saturday we went on the Hornblower Cruise that we won from the MDA walk in March. Jeff and I went with Ryan, Cassie, David, Ania, Josh, Stormy, Dan and Tanya. It was a fun evening with good food, great company and some dancing. Sunday morning we met Mickey and Marilyn at the La Costa Resort and Spa for breakfast for an MDA event sponsored by Stater Brothers. Another beautiful event and a great opportunity to meet some of the MDA families, as well as Mickey's colleagues.
On Monday Caleb got his first taste of acting as an Ambassador for the MDA. He was invited to a golf tournament sponsored by Outback Steakhouse at Maderas golf course in Poway to take pictures with the players. There were some amazing families there sharing the day with us. The food was fantastic and the players had a blast while playing for a wonderful cause. Not to mention the day was absolutely beautiful! We are so blessed to have such a wonderful organization in our lives.
