Memorial Day Weekend

I am LONG over due for an update! Mr. Cal moving has made my life a little more...interesting! He likes to crawl. He doesn't just crawl away from me..he crawls over to things that he shouldn't: cords, plugs, wires, etc, etc. He also will crawl over to the nearest thing he can pull up on. The kid is obsessed with standing. His balance isn't very good, or he gets cocky and tries to stand without holding on, and therefore falls over, screams, I stop what I'm doing to comfort him and then he starts the whole process over again. Makes doing anything pretty difficult! I used to be able to "park" him on the ground and put away laundry or whatever else, but now he crawls over to the dresser, pulls up, and does a face plant into the dresser, banging his face on every knob on the way down. Guess he will learn....right??

Cal and I headed down to Atlantic Beach on Thursday morning. My mom was nice enough to ride down with us. Eddie had arranged a golf game with a client and needed to come down on Friday. The beach was great. Beyond chaotic, but great. My brother and his wife came down with their two kids. So, if you are keeping track, that's 3 babies (ages 2, 8 mos, and 2 mos), 6 adults, and 3 dogs (the smallest being 70 lbs!). And our beach house is not very big. At all! But we managed just fine and had a great time together.

Because of the full house, Cal had to sleep in a pack-n-play. I was not looking forward to that, but he did really well. We've tried it in the past and it was a horrible experience, which ended with me holding him in my arms all night, but this time was much more positive.

We played in the house for the rest of Thursday, and woke up on Friday to a very pretty day. We blew up a very small baby pool and Cal had a BLAST playing in it! He splashed and splashed and flat wore himself out! Here, the weekend in pictures:

We played some great games of Patty Cake:
We played NAKED in the pool (so much more fun....):
We dumped water on our heads and loved it:


We rented a paddle board and mom LOVED it:

The WHOLE family enjoyed the board!
Hope everyone had a great weekend!
Summer is here!!!
