Time to lower the crib!

Big boy pulling himself up!


I cannot change this child's diaper anymore... I gave up in this video and let
him do his thing. : ) (He's going to love me for this someday)

Calvin's Baby Dedication




Calvin got blessed at church on Sunday. We all said a prayer around him and the pastor blessed him and another baby in front of the rest of the congregation. It was a great day. Calvin was so happy and he was trying to grab and kiss the other baby. Such a friendly little man... : ) We love that he gives us kisses now!

6 months




6 months old!





Calvin, we can't believe you are 6 months old already!! We love you so much and think you are the cutest thing in the world. You are so happy and easygoing, we couldn't ask for a better baby! Here are some things about you this month:

-Your two bottom teeth popped through a couple weeks ago. They didn't seem to bother you at all, but you did have to get used to them. You woke up twice with a bloody lip from biting yourself!
-You are still sleeping through the night. We put you to bed between 7 and 8. We give you a bath and read you a story every night (usually Dr. Seuss or Where the Wild Things Are). You sleep until about 7 am, wake up and nurse, then go back to sleep for about an hour.
-You LOVE your Baby Can Read DVD. We put it on after your morning and afternoon bottles and you get so excited when it starts you squeal and kick your feet in your walker.
-You can sit up on your own for a about 10-20 seconds at a time. You are pulling yourself across the floor like crazy and can get places quickly!
-So far, you have tried the following foods (and you have loved all of them): avocado, banana, apples, butternut squash, sweet potato, and brown rice cereal
-Your daddy can make you laugh so hard. He loves running errands with you and everyone comments about how happy you are when we take you out. You have this funny smile where you squish up your face and smile so big you can't hardly open your eyes. It makes us laugh.
-I don't think you are going to rough house with daddy! The other day he was "wrestling" with your cousin Aiden and you watched with big eyes and started whimpering and whining whenever he would drop Aiden on the couch or pretend to tackle him. You did not like watching that!

We love you baby boy (Bam Bam, Cal-boy, Bubby, Booger, Boogs).... So excited for another 6 months!



Our new car!
