What type of burritos do they make in Arkansas?

Dude burritos!

Caleb was a big swaddle fan up 'til January, so I wanted to show him my support.

So cozy!

This guy!

You are probably sick of posts about me - here are some glamour shots of Caleb doin his thang:

(dont worry about the rocks.  I got them)

Caleb loves baths - in the sink or tub!

He likes to grab things and put them in his smiley mouth

Sitting is is preferred position

He has lots of friends - well, maybe not.  But some cool pretend friends

And the dude can rock a sweater like its no ones business.

Who is the best little brother around with at least 1 thumb?

This guy!

Bros

My little bro is growing up!

He can sit like a pro...

I have had to make my muscles even bigger to hold him...

And he can already smile like a Famini dude.

I am still working on his funny face though.

Pop-pop

Pop-pop came to visit us!  Cheeeeese.

Wait, is Caleb smiling like we practiced?

Meanwhile, Dad was in Bodega Bay at JBs Bachelor party.  I heard it was the pits.

Another cake?!?

Yup, I had a 3rd birthday cake - this one made by my moms when Nana, Poppy and Aunt Sara came for Thanksgiving

A 3rd cake means 3 candles

I knocked out 2 with no probs.  The third went down with a mighty blow

BOOM!  Fist bumps for the birthday boy!

Actual Birthday

I turned 3 on November 8th!  It was a weekday so it was pretty chill 

But I did get cake #2!  Who's a big three year old?

Caleb had peas the poor guy

Paaaaartay

This year, when I turned 3, I got to have a party!

It was a pajama and movie night party.  My whole fam dressed up, even Tank!

Everyone got to make their own pizza 

(my dad kept saying he couldnt believe that you can buy 20 frozen full pizza dough balls from Sams club for $16.  We all get it old man)

Then us dudes watched a movie and played.  Fun!

Cake!

I blew the candle out like a champ

Even the babies had a goof time at this party.  Little did Caleb know that there was more to come...

Toy festival?

Each year the November "First Friday" event in Downtown Bentonville (normally like the Wednesday night market) is a toy exhibition.  It gets a bit crowded with all the big companies there giving stuff away.

Radio Disney broadcast from here.  Barbie was here.  Batman was here.  Even the Power rangers came!

I got to test out a truck I had been eyeing in the toy catalogs.

Even though it was cold I got a fruit juice popsicle treat - Watermelon! 

I was delirious in my cold enjoyment. 

"Um, Dad, can you take this?  And yes, I wont tell Mom I had a popsicle when its like 45 degrees in the shade."

Thanks for the toy samples!

Halloween

Initially the dudes wanted to be skeletons for Halloween

But then we came to our senses.  Dan was a 80s jogger (Cousin Darin's original!)  Caleb was a cow because it seems like he has multiple stomachs.  And I was what i wanted to be for months - a Pumpkin!

Model shot

Mom and Dad die decently with the pumpkin carving.  Lets step it up next year though, eh folks?

Oh, and its a little known fact but under the cow costume Caleb is really Batman!

Fall

We took a drive to check out just a smidge of the Fall colors in the Ozarks near Bentonville.

This is in our Backyard!

Dirt roads were involved
