Caleb's 8th Birthday

I haven't been posting the last few days....last week I was feeling really sick to my stomach, and it has just finally gotten better this weekend.    I have been trying to catch up on the housework that has accumulated since then. lol

Today is Caleb's 8th birthday!  I can't believe how fast the time has flown.  It doesn't seem like it's been long since he was just a baby.   We got Caleb a Red Rider BBgun for his birthday.  He loved it...and he did a great job hitting the target (coke can) for the first time.   We all took turns shooting cans all day Sunday (we gave him the gun a few days early so James could be there with him to show him how it worked).  

Here is a picture of Caleb with his BBgun:



I just wanted to compile some pictures of Caleb, from his very first pictures, till now... I should have done this for Bonnie's birthday but it never occurred to me before.

First, here are two of his ultrasound pictures...one from 6 weeks, and one from 10 weeks.  I have also included a picture of the first page of my diary, from the day I found out I was pregnant with my first baby:



This is Caleb, 5 days old:


1 year old:


A goofy face, just for fun:

Happy birthday, Caleb!

    Rheanon, it is definitely bittersweet. On one hand I am so proud of him, and look forward to seeing him become a young man...and then on the other hand, I wish he'd stay little just a little bit longer.
    Thanks for the birthday wishes...I'll pass them on to Caleb!
