July 25th was Caleb's 10 month birthday! He celebrated the day by saying goodbye to his mommy for the first time. I went on a youth mission trip to Daytona Beach for 5 days. It was an amazing trip but incredibly hard to be away. Ben and Caleb got a chance to have "guy time" and Ben did a great job as a single dad! I came home on Friday and Ben left to work in Iowa on Saturday morning. We will both be relieved to be reunited in Iowa for some great time with family.
A 10 month update....Caleb is crawling around the house and exploring everything. He can pull himself up to his feet and wants to walk! He doesn't quite get it that he has to hang on and often falls straight backwards. He is getting how to do it more and more. He is such a joy! He is an easy laugh which is good for us. He is eating a lot of finger foods and enjoys every minute of it! He loves to babble and make noises that make us laugh. He is one fun kiddo! Here of some pictures of our 10 month old. Thanks for the shirt Aunt Barbara! It says, " My dad's tattoos are cooler than yours!" So funny.
