Grandma's new wheels


My parents live in Chapel Hill, right down the road. For Mother's Day last year, my brother and I gave my mom a double jogging stroller so that she could walk her boys (and other grandkids!). I went over there this week with Cal and she was keeping Jackson for the morning. We loaded up the boys and took the for a walk.

It warms my heart to think of how close these little guys are going to be. Jackson will be 2 in January. Cal is going to look up to Jackson and I know they are going to be great friends. Chris and Elizabeth (my brother and sis-in-law) are having a little girl in March.... she just might be the most watched over little girl in the world with big brother Jackson and cousin Cal!

Carolina Game

This past Saturday, Eddie was out of town and I had Cal to myself and my parents had extra tickets to the UNC/Dook game. I REALLY wanted to go to the game. Before Cal, we went to a ton of games and tailgated and I always loved going. I have really missed the games this year, although I wouldn't trade my time with Cal for anything :).

My parents knew I was itching to go, so I dressed Cal in his finest Carolina Blue and we headed to the game! I was nervous about feeding/changing him at the stadium, but it all worked out okay. I pumped a bottle before we went, and I fed him in the parking lot before we went to the stadium. We changed him at the car too, and didn't have to change him again once we got into Kenan.

I loaded Cal into the Baby Bjorn and we headed in! He was GREAT! He slept in the Bjorn for the majority of the 1st half and everyone around us was commenting on how sweet he was and what a good baby he was. I was soooo thankful that he was a good baby! I was nervous because it wouldn't be fun to have an unhappy baby at a football game.

The temps were dropping as the sun set so we left at the half so that Cal wouldn't get cold. He was such a trooper and by then he was awake. I felt good with him in the carrier so that the germs around us couldn't get him very easily, and I didn't really want to take him out.

I took a few pictures, but he is so bundled that you can't even see him! It wa a great excuse to bounce up and down as the band played (I always want to, but can't do it and not look like a total goob, but with a baby, no one questioned me!).

Can't wait for next season to take him back!



Goooooo Heels!!!



Tuckered out!


All of this talk about Cal not sleeping on his back, and what does he do??
SIGH!
