Such a big boy!

It seems that ever since Ethan's 4th birthday, Caleb has grown into such a big boy! He is acting older and older, more like a toddler/preschooler, instead of a baby. Last weekend, Ethan got a bad virus, that mimicked the flu. He had high fevers, couldn't keep any food down, and was camped on the couch without having enough energy to walk anywhere for 5 full days. Luckily, he is finally feeling better. But the whole time he was sick, Caleb just kept on playing on his own around the living room. He knew something wasn't quite right with his big brother, but it was like he knew he had to entertain himself because mommy and daddy had to pay more attention to Ethan at the time. This morning, Caleb wanted to eat his breakfast at the coffee table with Ethan, instead of in his high chair. It is a special Saturday morning thing we let Ethan do, instead of sitting at the regular kitchen table. So, Caleb thought he was the "stuff" sitting there with matching pajamas and matching bibs with his big brother. And even tonight when we ate out for dinner at Outback, Caleb sat in a booster seat instead of a high chair. Then when we stopped at Target afterwards to pick up some toiletries we needed, Caleb wanted to walk instead of ride in the cart. He even held my finger for part of the time! I guess it's just these little things that make you realize that your baby is growing into such a big boy! Here are some pictures from this morning:
