Tada! It's an abundance of photos!

I am about to unleash a prolific amount of photographs.  I hope you have your spectacles on because this slideshow is worth seeing!

Cal is very inquisitive about everything and once he realizes that he has the ability to operate/open/close things independently then it's useless trying to stop him.  He really likes the cheese drawer and the dogs are also pleased that they have a human on their side to give them what they so desire. 
 
Shark alert!!!  This little shark likes to take wagon rides while sipping his fruit/veggie smoothie after daycare.
 
Just like Goldilocks, Cal found the chair that was 'just right'.  Great Gma's rocking chair (I think it was my dad and Uncle Bryan's as kids??) was the perfect size for him to rock in.  I'd be remiss if I didn't mention his new found affinity for climbing, which includes small rocking chairs that tip over easily.  He'll learn soon enough that these little chairs tip over, but he's taken a couple spills in the meantime!
 
"Hey, get this witch's hat off of me!"
 
(uncontrollable cackling) He really liked knocking the hat off of his head.
 
This was taken at the KSU/KU tailgate.  Robert Lipson has been to every, or nearly every, KSU football game since Bill Snyder was the coach.  If that's not impressive enough, he's been a recognizable pillar in the stands of KSU athletics since my folks were in college!
 
Cal loves Paul!
 
Thanks to a recommendation from my friend, Lindsay Hachenberg, I've made foods for Cal that are on a popsicle stick.  He really liked the frozen banana covered in chocolate syrup.  He was iffy on the chicken on a stick, but it was a start.  Anytime he eats something other than chicken nuggets, it's a victory in the Walter household.  He actually is eating a little better lately.  I've probably just jinxed myself by saying that. 
 
Since he throws everything on the floor for the dogs, I have to Swiffer almost every night.  He decided to help me this time.
 
Art time!  He liked coloring with the markers on the white board.
 
So much so, that he ran off with them and sprinted like he was in the 100m contest.
 
"Ok Mom, do you want to color?"
 
While keeping a firm grasp on his markers, he discovered the joy of jumping and playing in puddles.
 
 
Originally his game was simply to splash wildly, but then he thought it was hilarious that I was trying to corral him to keep him out of the street.  Enter new game....
 


 
Guess who's tall enough to turn the TV on and off?  It's a good thing we've secured it to the wall!!!  I should take a picture of all the electronics that we've been forced to put black tape over to hide the bright blinking buttons.  The TV will probably be next up for a tape makeover. 
 
He was enjoying some cuddle time with Ollie.  He had just woken up from his nap and thought her rump looked like a good pillow.
 
He was entranced by his favorite show, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.  It would appear that Ollie was also snared by Mickey Mouse's charm.  She looks pretty comfy!
 
Mitch is finishing up his final semester of Law School and has one paper left on his plate before walking across the graduation stage.  He's working for the City Attorney in between his class schedule and studying, but manages to be home every day by 6pm or earlier.  The Bar Exam is peering around the corner and Mitch is extremely excited about that.  I chose a boring, legal looking font to highlight my sarcasm in that sentence.  :)
