6 months old


He is growing up too fast.
First time time eating solids :)


The day Calvin turned 6 months old we gave him solid foods. He was not a fan at all. He also sat up on his own this month :)

Vegas baby!

First night in Vegas (our first family selfie)
We decided to head to Vegas for our family vacation this year. The main reason we wanted to go there was to bring Cal to the NBA summer league tournament. This is where the newly drafted NBA players and also some of the rookies for the NBA teams play. We also wanted Calvin to met as many Jazz players as we could so we could get pictures taken with them and get some memorabilia for Cal.

First off Cal did an excellent job driving from Salt Lake to Vegas. He did not cry once and well he slept most of the time. We stayed at the stratosphere hotel and we arrived late the first night so we went straight to bed. The second day we were there we went to the top of the world restaurant which is on top of our hotel. It is way up there and I am totally afraid of heights but it was awesome to see the whole city from that far up. We got some nice pictures from up there. Later that day we headed over to watch a couple of Jazz games and we were lucky enough to meet one of the newly drafted Jazz players Rodney Hood. We had gotten to the line late and luckily we were the last ones to get his autograph and also Cal got his picture taken with him.

The next day Brian's brother Peter came into town and we hung out with him that day and went to more basketball games and also went to the top of the stratosphere. We got some pretty nice pics of the Vegas strip and also some pics of us on top of the stratosphere. I have to say this that being that high off he ground really freaked me out. Brian really had the toughest time getting me to go up. I am kinda glad I did since we got a nice pic on top of it with Cal.

At the end of the trip we were able to head over to see Brian's aunt and uncle who are serving as mission presidents there in Vegas. It was really fun to hang out with them while we were there.

Calvin is 5 months old


So this post is really late. Calvin turned 5 months old back on July 17th. We were in Vegas at the time and so we didnt get to go one of his month to month pics but we did get one of him with a jazz player Rodney Hood. This month Calvin has been doing alot. He now loves to roll across the room it is like non stop. He also loves to be in his exersaucer. He is smiling all the time. He really is a really happy and content baby. I really think he has like really cried cried like a handful of times. He also got two teeth around 4 months 1 week and he is not sleeping through the night again. I think he can sleep a total of 11 hours in a row. He also did a really awesome job when we drove to Las Vegas. He slept like the whole 6 hours there. I really dont know how we got so lucky to have such a great baby. I dont have any weight or height stats yet. We dont go to the doc again till he is 6 months old. But what i can tell you is he is wearing 12 to 18 month clothes. He is one big kiddo. Here are some pics from the month :)
