Funnies this past week

We went to a comissioning service last Sunday evening for some friends who are moving overseas, which was so neat. Grandma Pam babysat Calvin. Gave him a looong bath, and he was very concerned about his very wrinkly fingertips. He made Gma kiss all 10, then still seemed concerned that they were still wrinkly.

Calvin was watching Fallyn then all of a sudden started exclaiming, "Two chins! Two chins! Hallyn TWO chins!" :)

He's been mimicking and imitating even more than usual lately. He'll imitate movements of people and objects, expressions, voices, sound effects....we get quite a kick out of it. It really is very entertaining. It's pretty impressive sometimes the things he picks up, too, and how he imitates it.

Rickdaddy's favorite thing right now is probably when Calvin "hovers" while Rick is snoozing on the couch or floor. Calvin will get his face REALLY close to Rick's and just hover and stare until Rick opens his eyes. He'll continue to stare a couple seconds, expressionless, then very quietly and sweetly say, "Hi Rickdaddy."

Fallyn's been eating a ton of infant cereal. The other day I made the normal amount I've been giving her and ended up refilling it FIVE times in one sitting! She's noticeably heavier these last couple days--maybe she had a growth spurt.

She laughed harder and longer than she's ever laughed before. It was all Calvin's doing. She was shrieking and squealing with laughter whilte sitting in her crib--Calvin was on our bed tossing his stuffed kitty into her crib. It was hilarious. Calvin was laughing pretty hard himself. I got it on video! Fallyn will smile soooo big just looking at him, even when he's sitting motionless and expressionless. I just love it that they like each other so much! Seeing her laugh at him is so much more fun for me than if I had made her laugh myself. Love it love it love it.

Rick: Mommy's soooo beautiful; Calvin, tell Mommy she's beautiful.
Calvin: (shaking head) Not bee-dee-bee-dee-bool.
Rick: Mommy's sooo pretty!
Calvin: (shaking head) Not pretty.
Rick: Mommy's hot!
Calvin: Mommy not hot.

Calvin continues to see "Elmo's eyes" everywhere...looking at the top of 2 cans that are touching, 2 round outlet plugs... Cars that don't have an obvious bumper have "chins"--maybe the Cars movie is affecting his perceptions :) --along with the vacuum...

Calvin loves this sort of detail work:
