Cal's First Love

They say that breaking up is hard to do. Cal is having his first heartbreak and he just can't let go. It's with his beloved paci. As parents, we decided to help him part ways with his beloved by the gradual snipping method. For the past week, his paci has slowly disappeared until he's left with this pathetic plastic thing:

And still, he's true to his love. He just can't let it go!

Here he is today before his nap. Poor Kid!

Guess Mom and Dad might have to make the break for him. It's going to be a looong week!

Summer Happenings...

Here's a few highlights of our summer so far:

We've had lots of fun playdates, like this one:


We've read books with Poppa and Grammie:

We've eaten LOTS of snacks:
We've read books wearing Daddy's crocs:
The boys got summer haircuts:

We've watched plenty of videos, some even upside down:
And we've eaten corn on the cob hot off the grill...YUM!


Our summer is off to a great start! I LOVE Summertime (except the 100 degree heat, that is)!

Will and Cal love to be outside with Daddy while he works in the yard. Here's a few recent pics of a Saturday morning with Daddy:



Sharing or fighting?
