Cal's First Attempts at Crawling

So, here it is, Cal's first real attempt at crawling. He has been trying and trying for the last week or so, and this was his best effort so far. Not the most coordinated attempt ever, but it made his daddy proud. So far, food is hands down (it wasn't even close) the best motivator to get him to crawl around. He already is a rolling champ, but soon we are afraid that he is going to be fully mobile...life changes yet again! It is so much fun. We love our little dude!

Weight Update ish...:)

So my family is still doing our biggest loser competition, i am not going to update my newest weight because its getting so close to the end we wanted to make our big reveal exciting... I put this blog up on our private site and i thought that some of my other supporters might want to see how i was doing. We decided to do our final weigh in on the 27th! and i am so excited for everyone who stuck it out because i think we have all done a really awesome job!

So i put on the same clothes that i wore when i was preggers to see what they looked like... so they arent the most flattering clothes now (cause they are a little big) but i think it shows the difference pretty well... then i found the pic of me a couple days before i gave birth so i thought it was kind of fun... and embarassing... to see the difference. Not gonna lie... its pretty awesome to know that you can go back to normal after you have a baby...

8 months After giving birth
One Month Before Baby Cal
A few days before Baby Cal... WooF!

Fun Times, Camping and Golfing

So this last weekend we went camping for the first time since we have been married! And it was definitely Cals first time camping too! Cal was such a good baby... he loved looking at the fire and all the fun things going on... He didn't really sleep that well but i think it was because when he would wake up he could see us right there next to him so he would try and get our attention. But we had such a fun time with the Woolstenhulme's and the Jividen's. We had tin foil dinners that turned out to be really good and for breakfast Marilee and Mica made us a "heart attack", it was sausage, hashbrowns and eggs... it was SOOO good!!
Getting the Whole Picture! We love camping!
Playing in the tent! Thanks Trev and Allison for letting us borrow it!
Rolling around... he loved it in there!
Cal playing with Marilee... He loved haning out with everyone there!
Hanging with Daddy!
O the Czech Missionaries... and Marilee
Jividen's... We loved telling stories and getting to know everyone a little better!

Cal playing with the computer cord...
He isnt really crawling yet but he can roll and scoot where ever he wants... and this is why we cant leave him alone in a room alone anymore... It was so cute tho, so i had to take pictures!
We went to the driving range with the Millers and had a really good time! Cal loved playing with the golf balls!
MMMMmm they are so good... and clean i am sure!
Libby Miller hitting some balls!
Mark playing with Cal while everyone else was busy hitting...
Haha... Me trying really hard just to hit the darn ball... I was so bad!
Brock doing what he loves... He wishes we had more money so he could go golfing more often... We had so much fun this last week! Hope you all are having a wonderful summer!!!
