WHAT WERE YOU DOING CALEB??!!

Wow! It's been awhile since I've blogged. However, something occurred yesterday that I just had to hurry and post. It was one of those times where you really want to bust out laughing, but you have to discipline and can't. Here's what happened:

Josh and I were trying to clean the house before pulling down all the Christmas decorations. Micah and I were in one room cleaning, and Josh was somewhere else. Caleb was playing in the living room. All was well. Until.....CRASH! SLAM! SHATTER!

Josh and I both run into the living room to see what has happened. We get in there just in time to see Caleb pulling himself up off the floor behind the couch. We had some of our decorations on the floor in the corner (moving them to be replaced by Christmas decorations), and sure enough there is a child size dent in the pile of decorations. We go over to see that one of the plastic candle decorations was shattered. We check Caleb to make sure he's ok, and he is scared. Then this is what I hear.

Josh: Caleb, what were you doing?
Caleb: Jumping off the couch (he had apparently stood on the back of the couch and jumped off...which he KNOWS he isn't supposed to do).
Josh: Why in the world were you on the couch Caleb?
Caleb: *looks at daddy with big blue eyes and quivering lip and states* "I was trying to be a super hero!"

Like that just explained everything. So here we are trying to discipline our kid for A. climbing on the furniture, B. Jumping OFF the furniture, and C. breaking something, all the time while trying not to laugh.

Oh the mind of a 3 year old!!
