Cali's Crawling!

Cali is crawling finally!! Whoo hoo!! Two days ago she just figured out this whole crawling business and now there is no stopping her. I do understand now why Mom kept telling me that it wasn't a bad thing that she wasn't crawling. We thought we had everything pretty well baby proofed already but Cali is showing us that we were very wrong. The destruction of our house has begun! It is really neat to see Cali figuring out her body and how to control it, this morning she actually stood on her own for about 30 seconds til she realize what she was doing, then fell over! :) Cali has been really sick this week and so incredibly upset, she must be definitely getting her first tooth, maybe!? I'll keep you posted!

There's no stopping her now, she's everywhere and into everything!

My Little Water Baby!!

This is Cali's second set of swimming lessons and finally someone came to watch us....whoopee! Nana and Elliott came to watch today and were able to take some pictures of us. Cali is such a good little swimmer, she already seems to know what to do with her legs and arms. In the last couple of lessons Cali has been splashing up a storm, she really loves to be in the water! She is also the center of attention in our group, always smiling, laughing and trying to play with the other kids!:)

Messy fun.....Cali loves Spaghetti!

Outdoor Fun!

Cali is 11 months old today!!

I can't believe that Cali is already 11 months old, boy has the time gone by fast! Cali weighs just under 20 lbs now and she has gotten very tall, I don't know her exact height but she is fitting the leg length of 12- 18 month pants. Cali just did the sweetest thing today, we were looking at one of her books with all kinds of animals in it and she started putting her lips to the pages. I watched her do it a few times and realized she was giving the animals a kiss on their faces. I said "Cali can you give Mommy and kiss?" and she leaned in and gave me a kiss on the lips! She's so sweet!! Cali has been learning how to crawl and pull herself up just in the last week or so. She has such a strong personality for a little girl, if you take her from something that she is doing oh boy do you get to hear about it! We are looking forward to Cali's first birthday next month and really not looking forward to me going back to work. But on the bright side it looks like we have Cali's daycare all figured out and she is set to go. She's going to have so much fun because she will get to play with two other little girls every day! I am so proud to be Cali's Mommy, I'm so lucky to have such a wonderful life with a wonderful family! :)
