We survived the 1st week of 2014


We had a rough start to 2014 at our house. I was really excited to get back to Vegas with our little family. Cal was so sick the first week or so in January. It was miserable for both of us... most definitely my hardest mama week so far. He had the flu and it was hard for me to watch him be so sad. After about 5 or 6 days he looked like he felt mostly better (besides his cough), but he was so grumpy and crying all of the time. It was hard for me because I didn't know what to do for him. I learned that neither of us do very well cooped up in the house all of the time... we were going crazy. 

Luckily he seems to be all better now! His appetite and smile are back! Hurray for my happy baby. Also, this past week he learned what a bear says & what a lizard says and it is the cutest thing ever. He also finds the leash several times a day and chases Hobbes around, trying to put it on him. Dallin has been looking into mine and Cal's ears lately trying to practice using his otoscope. Cal took it from his hand the other night, and kept trying to look into my ear with it. It was cracking us up.

Besides being sick and playing with otoscopes, we have had a fun couple of weeks hanging out with our friends here. We bought a pack n' play recently. Since Cal is a champion sleeper, we can just take it to the house that we are hanging out at that night, and Cal will go right to sleep (with his trusted stuffed tiger, of course). We also spent an evening at the container park on Fremont Street with the Taylors and had a ball. Oh, and Cal is starting to practice his walking skills a liiiittle bit more, but only a little.





Hopie, making Cal feel better

He loves these blocks that Justin made for him
