exploring with eric and brianna

Eric and Brianna are visiting.  They've been off to London a few times, so they have about a million pictures, but here are a few quick shots of what we've been up to with them.  Once their trip is done we'll catch our breath and put up an album on picasa.

He's been on the edge of crawling for what seems like years (but was in fact probably only a month or two), and now it's happened.  Locomotion.  Depending on what he's aiming for it seems either comically slow and uncoordinated or alarmingly fast and accurate.  Time to start putting things out of reach.

Thanks to our friends in CO, Calvin is almost ready to round up cattle.  Now we just need to find some good cowboy boots and a ten gallon hat.

 

The happiest cowboy I've ever seen.
