CRAWLING!...and Other Things

I tell you, it doesn't get any better than watching the little body of your little boy, reaching his arms out and moving his legs forward, coordinating the whole forward-propelling mechanics of crawling. He's been getting better and better at it for two weeks now, and I think it makes him a happier kid because he can go almost anywhere he wants now.

It makes long car rides a little harder, as we experienced first-hand last Friday on the drive from Phoenix to Denver...It's just a long time to be buckled in for a squirmy, curious little man. We did stop at the Grand Canyon in the middle of the day. That was awesome, and it was a good break from being in the car. And, after a long day, we finally made it. We've had a fun weekend with Joy and Grant, Grandma, Grandpa and Megan. Also, Jeff had his first day of his first rotation today, which you will have to ask him about if you want to know the details. We love being here and anxiously await the time when all of the rest of you will arrive.

Sorry about the lack of pictures on this post...more to come, I promise.

The idea of Cal's amazing cuteness being able to crawl around is just delightful; you and Jeff must be busting your buttons! I can't wait to see Cal in full crawling action this weekend...should be lots of fun.

I hope Jeff got a lot out of his first rotation, and I can't wait to hear his stories. Perhaps now might be a good time for him to update his blog, assuming he's not too busy (hint, hint...).

Cal better watch out because Uncle Addie is coming home. It is going to be wrastling time.
