BASEBALL

Caleb decided to give Baseball a try this season, the last time he played he was 4 but he did good considering that's not a strong sport in our house. He pretty much always hit the ball, maybe only struck out 3 times the whole season. He enjoyed playing but I think this kid just enjoys whatever sport he is playing at the time.

WAY TO GO BUDDY!!

A HOUSE DIVIDED

Last week BYU and Texas played we are fans of both but had to make the choice of who we wanted to win. Peyton goes with whatever Quinn tells her, that girl never wants to break her Daddy's heart I decided for Longhorns (because Quinn threatened me j/K) Quinn is full blown Longhorns fan and poor Caleb was confused. Earlier that morning he had on his Longhorns shirt so I said "your going to go for Longhorns " and he was like "well I really want BYU but I don't want Dad mad at me" So I proceeded to tell him to root for whoever you want, not what someone else wants. So Quinn had to have a conversation with Caleb that he wouldn't be mad and that it was all for fun. But low and behold Longhorns pulled out the win!!
The family divided. Poor Caleb was the only one for the Y so he recruited someone to be with him and that someone was....
CHASE!!
Maybe it happened to be that he just had on blue that day but Caleb doesn't need to know that he was certain that Chase was going for the Y!!

MISSING TOOTH!!

Caleb finally lost his front tooth. A while back Quinn was playing Baseball with Caleb and the ball hit Caleb in the face knocking it loose. It was not loose at all so that thing was not ready to come out so for the last month he has tried and tried to make it come loose and it finally payed off and our neighbor Bob pulled it for him, he was beyond excited.
He got out his "tooth pillow" and wrote a note to the Tooth Fairy and surprise she showed up with a little something, he ran down first thing in the morning to show us.
So excited to go to bed that night
Fast forward a week later and we lost the second front tooth, by getting hit in the face with a football at School, (obviously he isn't the best catcher:)) Caleb said he got hit so hard that his tooth flew over a whole mile. So his buddies and him were not able to find his tooth but the tooth fairy managed to still come even without the tooth. Then last night he lost a bottom one that was actually just ready to come out!!
He is soon going to have no teeth left if he keeps loosing them and one broke tooth fairy!!
