Well, not a whole lot changes very quickly with Alora and Caleb, but I thought I should make a note of some the things they are saying and doing, so here it goes!!
Alora: She has been saying the funniest things lately! Today she was playing with Caleb in the backyard and he started to climb on her and she said "Caleb, don't climb on me, I'm not a jungle gym!" Then the other day she was talking to Matt and said "The Savior loves me, He loves daddy, mommy, Caleb, Lucky, but He doesn't love Binx (our old cat)." Too funny! Another first for Alora is that she got gum stuck in her hair today. So we brought out the peanut butter and thankfully it worked! The next step was a very short haircut! She is such a good helper and really enjoys helping me make dinner, desserts, and anything. She is wanting to do everything herself and loves playing outside. She has a great imagination and LOVES playing dress up and anything princess. She is also starting to recognize letters and numbers. So far she knows the letters A,B,C,D,E,F,G, and M and also the number 5. It's too bad she still has two years until school! We love her!!
Caleb: Just today has learned how to open doors! Yikes! His language has really started to take off. He is saying things like "there ya go," "buh bye," "outside," "thank you," "pleez," "juice," "hi sissie (Alora)," "crackie (cracker)," "cereal," "sit down," "wanna get out," "want sum more." He is also starting to sing his ABCs, which is very exciting! Caleb's favorite things are playing outside, especially on the trampoline, watching movies, taking baths, helping daddy do anything, and climbing all over mommy. He also loves playing with his matchbox cars (the police car and Ford truck especially) and is learning his shapes. We love that little guy!
We are so blessed to have two beautiful, healthy kids! They can drive us crazy sometimes (like now when they are making a huge mess in the bathtub), but we love them lots!!!

Good job Alora and Caleb! It sounds like your kids are doing a whole bunch of fun and new things!
Alora's hair is so pretty and long, I am glad that the peanut butter worked because I would have probably cried if I had to cute all tat hair off! I can't believe how big they are, I know time has passed, but you never realize how much time until you see other people's children so grown up! I hope your pregnancy is going well and that those two slow down a bit for you with the mess making! I hate the feeling of I am never going to catch up... every mess I stop to clean up, the have made two more! It is crazy! Best of luck to you, if you find a trick other than duct tape, let me know!
Seriously!! They look so BIG in these pictures!! Alora's hair is SO pretty! When are you coming to visit??
WOW, I can't believe how big they look!
Alora looks so much older than when I saw her last summer! She sounds so funny!
I am so jealous of Alora's hair...it is so long and pretty (and Hailey's won't grow). Have I told you that the two of you make beautiful children? I love the random things kids come up with, that is too funny.
