The season is upon us!

Cal had his 6 month/Christmas photos taken recently and they turned out so beautifully!!  He was extremely smiley that day, so each picture was a winner (in his Mama's eyes!).  Here are a few of our favorites.

 I think he looks like such a little man in this picture.  Maybe it's the lumberjack shirt....or his adorable receding hairline, but I think that he definitely looks older than 6 months in this photo. 

This one is my FAVORITE!!!!!  I sat about a foot to his left so that I could grab the lights that he kept trying to shove into his mouth.  I didn't research it, but logically saliva and electricity didn't seem like a good combo.  I'm no Ben Franklin, but it seemed best to avoid this scenario. 

 He sits up so well and has become increasingly sturdy while playing with his toys on the floor, or in this case the ornaments.  His favorite ornament was covered in glitter, which led to some necessary photoshopping by the photographer.  Had she not removed the glitter from the picture, you would've thought he'd been to a little girl's birthday party...or a rave. 

Mitch finally caved to my persistent begging and we gave Cal an early Christmas present.  Apparently the phrase, "He isn't being stimulated...we're inhibiting him intellectually" really struck a cord and he agreed to just ONE early gift.  :)  Cal truly is bored with his toys and actively seeks out things that make noise or light up.  So we decided it was time to awaken his musical side and we broke out the piano.  He loved it!   



I know we seem to post a lot of videos of Cal laughing, but seriously.....can you blame us?!  To us, it's the best sound in the world.  Watch this video and see how comical he finds his Daddy.
