I wish I could video little Caleb's thoughts'


Caleb is so funny we just never know what is going through his mind. But we get a hint when he comes out with funny little anecdotes that he fully believes is real. Like how he was positive that Michael Phelps was going to come to his birthday party. He watched the olympics every night and was GLUED to the tv when Michael swam. The olympics were in August and his birthday was in September. He started swimming at the country club solely from watching Michael swim. He was so funny standing on the side of the pool bent over with his arm back, and DIVING in. I am serious. He would actually dive and then do exactly like Michael did with the little 'body wave' and go a long way before coming up for air. After repeatedly doing this he convinced his mom Amy that he didn't need his life jacket. And sure enough he didn't. He would 'dive' in head first and do the little fishtail thingy and then come up for air then swim to the side. I'll see if I can't find a video of it.


Caleb is just so smart and fun to be around. Once we were driving down the road and a tractortrailer, without the trailer, passed us and Caleb laughed and said "look he don't have a tail." I thought it was so cute that he thought the trailer was a tail!


That leads me to this story, and Amy may make me take it off, but I think it is just too cute to forget. Amy was getting Katie ready for her ballet class and Caleb came into her room. He did a double take and said, "You don't have a tail!" Amy laughed and said, "a tail? You don't have a tail either!" To which Caleb exclaimed, "Yes I do!" and proceded to pull his pants down to show her! Amy cracked up and said, "Caleb that is not a tail, it is a (insert correct name here, I don't won't someone coming to my blog because they googled certain words!) and girls don't have those." We just never know what is going on in that cute little head of his. I think three and four year olds are the most fun age to just listen to, or even carry on a conversation with.


Here is a video of him practicing calling Michael Phelps to invite him to his 3 yr old birthday party... well it won't upload, I'll figure it out and show it later, really cute.
