Smiles

"When the Teething is done, we have Fun!" I simply love this kid!!! (mom, i feel so so sad that you are missing all of this :(

Tooth 2 and Birdie

Well, now Both of Caleb's bottom front teeth have popped out! Phew! Caleb is a much happier little boy now that his teeth have emerged. (sorry, but that is the best picture Caleb would let us get, i promise that there are two little teeth in there...)
Yesterday, Devin had our bird, Julie-O, out and Caleb was lovin' it! The problem is he keeps startling the bird so the bird flies away. Observe:

Milestone: Tooth

No pictures today, just a quick report. Devin and I went to the temple on Friday for date night, then we went to see my nephew in his pinewood derby scout activity. Awesomeness, but Caleb was as fussy and goober-eyed as he had been all week. Yesterday Devin and Caleb went to mom's house to hang out and play while all of the ladies went to the movies. While I was out, Devin discovered that Caleb had a tooth! Right there, lower front. After that we went to Green Canyon to go swimming, Caleb loved it! I hope that this means a little break from the teething for a little bit, it wears me out!

Caleb and books

So I seized the moment when Caleb wouldn't know I was videoing to get this video for you...Caleb has this fascination with the front cover of books in this case my hefty nutrition book from last semester. He does this when I read board books to him as well. Wouldn't it be funny to know what is going through his mind as he does this? --I have a hard time imagining exactly what he might be thinking.

Army Crawl

Caleb is not crawling yet (*sigh of relief*) but he certainly gets around. He can get to just about anywhere by rolling, but recently he has been cracking Devin and I up with his own version of the army crawl. Naturally he won't do it for the camera, but in this video you can get the idea...

on Hair...

So just when I was beginning to wonder if Caleb was going to just stay bald forever, he started to grow some hair! That's right he is no longer the bald-ie of our family. The fact is however that now Caleb has some hair but I have no idea what to do with mine anymore.

Cut it ?

Grow it ?

Trim it?

It won't go strait when I try to straiten it, it won't go curly when i try curly, and in between doesn't work either...Is this normal for moms at this point after a having a baby? *frustration*

Mexico hair (braids) was so easy! Do nothing, your hair is always done...

Temporary solution : Ponytail...

I find myself becoming envyous of those who always have perfect hair, without even trying. I need to learn their tricks.

Caleb is 7 months old!

I totally can't believe it, my little guy is seven months old! I have a hard time imagining what it was like before I had my little Caleb (or for that matter what it was like to sleep the whole night through). He is all smiles and laughs, we sure love him.

On a completely different note, I am almost finished with my high chair, and I think that it has turned out way cute! really just some minor details left.

Mazatlan Mexico

Well to be honest, i kinda had a hard time deciding how to blog our Mazatlan trip, or even if I should blog it...I thought about just putting all of my pictures on a slide show, but then it is hard to make comments on one individual picture, and half of the point is to keep all of the memories, sort of like a journal or scrapbook. So I decided to blog the trip in a series of posts, where I could make comments on the pictures, etc. I hope that this will help all of us that were on the trip to remember all that we did together, I apolagize that these posts, though open to all, are mostly for my mom and siblings. To any and all brave enough to check out all of the pictures (all of the posts are rather image heavy) I hope that you enjoy!

Mazatlan Adventure

Mazatlan Mexico was pretty much a week long party for my family. Below are random pictures of us as we partied hard. Good Times!

Caleb in Mazatlan

For anyone interested in how Cute Caleb is feel free to take a look at these pictures, for anyone else, well let this be your warning, you will find nothing but pictures of Caleb in this post...

Mazatlan Night #1

After arriving in Mazatlan and setteling in to our rooms at The Inn at Mazatlan we headed out for dinner in a square that had lots of little jewlery stands. (I never really caught the name of the place that we ate, but it was way yummy...)

After dinner and jewelery looking we rode a red truck (taxi) to Oasis, our favorite escamocha place that we discovered two years ago.



We all still love escamochas and also whatever #7 is (we have no idea what is in in, we just know that it is good...)

Mazatlan Dinner Night #2

On our second night we at dinner at The Purple Onion (the only restaurant we ate at that served us white onions instead of purple onions...). While waiting for our orders we had a some musicians play and sing for us (everywhere you go there are singers happy to do this for a tip...):

Skyler and Oly ordered fajitas, and their meals looked somewhat like this:
While our meals looked more like this:

Mazatlan Dinner Night #3

Our third night we went to dinner at La Puntilla (the point) a restaurante that specializes in mexican sea food. We went to this restaurant two years ago also.

Devin and my dinner:
Mom's dinner (yea that is the whole fish eyes and all):
Afterwards, while waiting for our red truck (traditional Mazatlan taxi, we all sat in the truck bed...) Caleb loved the swings! Preston and Devin had the teeter totters figured out!:
