KAMIKAZE in the pool


Alright, so i was so stoked at the photos of Cal jumping in the water that we previously took, but was bummed that half of them were blurry cause I had messed up my camera settings (shutter time to long for the technical!) so I took a bunch more and here they are...

This little kamikaze man could do this all day long...

Dr Appt.'s


The 2 boys had their Dr appointments the other day. Cade is 29% for weight, which surprised me he seems so chunky I thought it would be higher, 55% for height and 60% for his head. Cade is starting to get on his hands and knees and rock back and forth. He is a champ at the army crawl. He is such a happy baby and is pretty tough since he is always being pushed around by Cal.
Cal was 21% for weight and 31% for height. Cal is into everything boy, climbing, jumping, swimming, boating, balls, planes, cars...
2 boys are so much fun! Cal can always make Cade laugh! My favorite sound is the 2 of them laughing, it brings a smile to my face!
This picture was taken at the park, Cade enjoyed his 1st swing ride, the 2 of them just kept laughing!

Splash


Cal sure loves the water. It is a little scary because he has no fear, and has no problem jumping into any pool. I don't think he realizes he floats because of his water wings... not because he can swim!! Anyway, we sure get a kick out of taking him swimming! As you can see by the photos, he spends most of the time climbing out and jumping in off the side...

Big Swingin' Cal



And of course boys are boys... Cal loves to hit everything else with his bat... His mom, his baby brother (who at 6 months old cannot fight back.. yet), furniture...

Cade playing "shortstop"



Cade wanted to play shortstop... somehow don't think he fully gets that game yet... Notice how when the ball hits him, Mom says "oh are you ok.." Cal is the one says "ya"

Don't think she was asking you Cal..

Hamilton Gardens, New Zealand

Hamilton Gardens, New Zealand

This is what a lot of New Zealand looks like to me. Green everywhere you look. It is such a beautiful place. This is by Grandpa's house, we took an afternoon to enjoy all the different gardens.

Brisbane

Brisbane, Australia

These are some pictures of our trip to downtown Brisbane. In the middle of the city there is a man-made beach called South Bank Beach. It was pretty fun and pretty crazy to see this beautiful beach in the middle of the city! Cal of course enjoyed swimming in it and jumping off the rocks. Cal also had a fun time playing with Nanna at the park. Nanna sure loved spoiling Cal with ice cream before dinner to bubble baths and everything in between. We miss you Nanna and Collin!

Home of the Crocodile Hunter

Nanna took us to the Australia Zoo, "Home of the Crocodile Hunter". It was so fun to see all the animals but Cal thought it was pretty cool that he was able to feed and pet a bunch of the animals. He still says "I feed elephant" and "CRIKEY!". Thanks Nanna for a great time!

Gold Coast Australia

While visiting Australia, we decided to head over to Sea World. They had a place there called Sesame Street Beach, that had a bunch of rides for kids. Cal loved all the rides and especially liked the dolphin show.
