Well, more than 10% of Calvin's life has elapsed since the last post, so here are the major events!
1. In mid-November, we made the drive up to Northern CA to visit some relatives. Calvin enjoyed the plush hotel bed, drinking water from a glass with Great Aunt Maggie, and being walked down the Santa Cruz wharf by an entourage.
2. Calvin took his first step the Tuesday before Thanksgiving and his second step the Tuesday after Thanksgiving. Both were accidental, occurring in the standing-to-crawling transition. He is yet to take a third step, but he now stands for "extended" periods of time (5-10 seconds).
3. Calvin has 4 visible, sharp teeth. He sometimes clicks them together, which makes me wince.
4. For Thanksgiving, we went to the Boston area. Calvin got to meet friends and relatives and two very friendly dogs and experience cold. A great time was had and Calvin behaved well on his second cross-country round trip.
5. Now we're back in LA without any travel plans for several months. Calvin is testing the limits of our childproofing, babbling constantly, and generally enjoying life.
