This week we had some great weather... sun and temperatures above 40 degrees! Grandma and Grandpa Roth came to visit and we decided it would be a good idea to go to the playground with his cousins. This was Cal's first time there since he was only a few weeks old, and at that point he fell asleep on a blanket during a picnic. We started out with Cal and his cousin Cole sitting in the dirt playing with sticks and leaves, which then ended up in his mouth but thinking I was stealthy and got them all out I wasn't too worried. Then, the following day I found a few leaf pieces in his poop. Fiber, right? Next, since he thinks he's a big kid, we decided to put him in the little swing. We couldn't wait to see his expression when he went on the swing for the first time, and it was even better than we could have expected. See video below.
Cal figured out crawling fairly quickly, but decided that wasn't enough of a challenge. He started pulling himself up in his crib! Now he wants to pull up on anything he can find... tables, rocking chair, Matt's back, my face, doesn't matter. He's so excited and proud of his latest achievement. He also thinks it's pretty funny so he just laughs and laughs each time he does it in his crib. We had a rough week of sleep due to his excitement about his new ability and waking up to practice in the middle of the night, but now he's back to normal and we're making sure to get a lot of practice in during the daylight hours instead.
We went to a different playground later in the week and he loved crawling around and watching the big kids play around on the swings and other equipment.
Thanks Val Davis for the super cute sweater! |
