I had gotten several things out of Caleb's toy bins, in an attempt to reorganize them. Caleb woke up from his nap and saw all of the things out.
Caleb: Did you get all of this stuff out?
Mommy: Yes
Caleb: Why did you make this mess? (confused tone, not angry)
Mommy: I was trying to organize your toys.
Caleb: You gotta learn to clean up!

can you keep posting this stuff even after Caleb's birthday? i just love reading Caleb-isms.
that cutie face is so good ... too cute

I think he has a better grasp on place value than my third graders...forty-one thousand, zero hundred and fifty dollars...sounds funny but is indeed correct
"Manboy" is classic. And I'm definitely going to have to file away "Thanks for having cake" for future use.
