The day with dad

Cal's a standing fool now, so he got this cool new toy to stand and walk with. Right now we have to push it against something for him to stand to make sure it doesn't roll away and to prevent nose dives but soon enough he'll be racing through the house. Ian and Cal did lots of playing Monday with his toy.

Perfect Seattle day

Cal and I spend the day with Shannyn, Amanda and LT on Saturday while Ian was in Wenatchee elk hunting (the guys had no luck this year). We took advantage of the nice Fall weather and wandered around Pike Place Market in the afternoon.

Cal got to stay up late and kick it with mom and her friends - he loved all the attention.

Cal's motivation to crawl... getting Clyde

Jammie day

I'm a firm believer in getting Cal dressed everyday even if it's just in sweats, but we made an exception today. He slept for a better part of the day (two 2.5 hour naps - so nice!) so he got to kick it in his jams all day.

playing made him hot so we unzipped for a bit

Some random pics from the weekend

Now that Cal's standing so well, this is pretty much his favorite thing to do. We need to take video to post of him walking (holding on to us). His little steps are SO cute.

Walks make him so sleepy

Still sleeping in transport to the crib (and unable to move his arms in his big down jacket)
