9 Months

There are a lot of pictures in this entry, so I apologize if it's an overload. Thanks to Grandma Lori for taking so many good ones!
So here are Cal's stats from the most recent doctor appointment: 28.75 inches long (50th %), head circumference is also in the 50th %, but weight is only 15 pounds 10 ounces which puts him in the -3rd percentile. The doctor says we need to add butter and other fatty things to pretty much everything he eats to beef him up. So that's the goal for the next month. He also has an ear infection- his first, and he just loves his medicine.
Some items of interest: Calvin is just starting to push up onto his hands and knees, and he has even gone from his belly to a sitting position twice this past week. I got teary-eyed. He loves zippers, drawstrings, and buttons. He still enjoys rough housing. Cal has started fake laughing, which sounds sort of like a cough. It's pretty funny. He loves to be outside, even when it's frigid- we have to go on a walk everyday in his umbrella stroller, even if it's just around the block.
Let the pictures begin!
We celebrated Eric's birthday on the 11th.

Swimming at the Legacy Center. Calvin just got dunked for the first time. He didn't seem too upset, just suprised.


Just waking up. Nice bed head.
