Play with my feet!
Calvin recently loves to have his feet played with. He will point his feet at you to tickle or blow on his toes and then he will pull them back, and repeat! It is quite cute.
Little bald one?
As I was cutting Calvin's hair yesterday (for the second time already!) I remembered what the 'definition' of his name was... little bald one! Oh yeah right! I just had a good laugh and had to share.
Here is a pic (sorry not a great one) of where I cut his hair. He sits in front of the mirror and visits with the little cutie in the mirror while I cut!
I also enjoyed this.. Daddy got a little tired playing. We have finally enjoyed the part of parenthood where baby doesn't like to sleep :( We have been so lucky with how much that he has slept in the past that it is really hard to get used to now!

4 months of Calvin
Well since I didn't get this started until CalPal was 4 months old, let me update you on all that he has accomplished in his short life so far!
Our first 2 surprises on Feb 21st at 9:22pm? The fact that he was SO LARGE! and ALL THAT HAIR!
This was my favorite expression of his in his first few weeks. His eyebrows would go up, his lips would purse and he would let out the sweetest little 'aaahh'. Melts my heart!
At 3 weeks old he started giving us 'real' smiles! My favorite time of the day with him was first thing when we woke up (usually around 9am! We got lucky with a baby who liked to sleep at night!) he would just lay and smile and talk and do his stevie wonder impression.
This was his other smile...
1 month old, first time in his bumbo. He did this cute little head bob like he was keeping the beat with music.
Calvin loves playing with his friends! This particular day he played so hard he fell asleep right there.
His friends:
Horton the elephant
George the monkey
Jeffrey the giraffe, and
Sam the parott
(Yep, we are certainly creative!)
I just really like this pic :)
Cal got a new bathtub from our Auntie Bookie, at first he hated it, but after a few minutes he decided it was pretty great to sit in a bucket of warm water.
Calvin is a world traveler already. We took a trip to Playa del Carmen and cal got to come along, he was a wonderful travel companion!
We were in front of the mirror in this pic, he has recently found that cute little boy in there, and he really enjoys him!
(We also got a haircut right before this, 14 weeks and we were shaggy! oh, mom got a haircut too, 9 inches off of mine!)
And finally, we started solid food! Calvin has had rice each day this week, and he loves it!
He also loves when his daddy sings to him... his favorite used to be the pepperoni song (...ask ted) and more recently it is tutti fruiti or eye of the tiger!
He has changed so much in 4 months, I can't believe how fast time goes!

Hello!
Life is just a bowl of cherries... or as mom liked to say a chair of bowlies! So, here is my place to simply write about life, my chair of bowlies.
I have a great life, I have been married to Ted for just about 3 years, and we have the most ADORABLE son Calvin, who is just about 4 months old! We are lucky to each have very supportive parents and siblings, as well as our 5 nieces and 1 nephew (with one more on the way!) This blog will simply be about our simple, but wonderful life together. I want an open place for me to be me, where I can write about our adventures so I don't forget a thing!
