16 months old!

Today Caleb is 16 months old. He is trying to talk and say words but still only says Mama. He has started saying "Oh" or "oooh" at things. He loves to watch his videos and will laugh out loud at them. He likes Baby Faith, The Wiggles, and recently Thomas the Tank. He laughs when the trains move fast and he likes it when the music comes on.

We have taught him to pray before he eats his food. Usually we had to put his hands together and make him do it. Now when we say "Let's pray" he will put his hands together and usually will sit there like that till we are done. Our prayers are really short of course! It is the cutest and sweetest thing! The other day while we were eating we were watching the news and a story came on about a baby that needed some kind of organ transplant. Caleb noticed the baby and was smiling at the baby so I told him we needed to pray for that baby. When I said "pray" he put his hands together and we prayed for the baby. What impressed me was that he held his hands together until I finished praying even though there was food on his tray! He would normally start the prayer like that but will pick up some food during the prayer if there is food in front of him.

Here are a few pictures that were taken by my friend Alicia at her son's bday party. I just really loved these and wanted to post them. Sitting in a chair

He is amazed at something...not sure what!
