We’ve been very busy. . .
This is photo evidence of Callum’s false start. We were having races.
How rude!
Callum and cousin Lindsay had a fun time playing together.
This must be instinctive behavior. He couldn’t possibly have learned that from Daddy.
Callum had his last day at the infant-toddler center. We were sad to say goodbye to teacher Vicki!
Look at his lonesome little cubby.
Grampy came to visit!! Callum and Grampy had fun dancing on the furniture. Another instinctive behavior, surely.
And Grampy left us a nice parting note.
Callum got his first Trader Joe’s balloon. ”boon!”
“‘at!”
We went apple picking, in an attempt to revive the Abbott AND McNeil family tradition. This was the teany tiny Californian orchard we found.
It was hot out, which didn’t seem right, either – but Callum was very good at picking the low ones. “appo? appo? appo?” (most of his words sound like questions.)
uh oh. . .
We had a great time watching the chickens.
For Halloween, Callum was a lion. ROAR! I mean, Zzzzzzz. . . oar
Callum and Alexandre had fun with the screen door.
We had another attempted gator picture.
C loved his costume. ”on? on?”
Bubbles!!
Look out, giraffe; that fierce lion is gonna get you!
Callum wanted EVERYTHING on one morning. “On? On?”
Little man took a shower in the hotel. They had a special little towel just for him.
Oh, and we’re still here, too. We went to a wedding in Chicago.
Callum is a pro at using the potty. He’s still in diapers, but he knows how it’s done. This day he was SOOOO messy from preschool festivities. That, the ponytail remainder, and the reading material seemed to be picture-worthy.

























I dispute the false start evidence – Andy’s toes are definitely in the lead! Hey Grampy – you stole my message in block form idea, or maybe great minds think alike?
I think it may have been a case of great minds! Or silly minds, at least.
