Oops...a day late, and other issues

We are a day late with the 5 month old stats.  Oops.  And the other problem to which we allude is size related.  We've been keeping track of Calvin's growth by taking monthly pictures in the swing and in the carseat.  We've found this to be a lot of fun, but we really didn't think ahead enough.  Currently Calvin refuses to sit back in his swing - he much prefers to lean forward while it is swinging and talk to the dogs.  So that picture comparison is out.  Then with the carseat we have another problem because he is now too big for the carseat insert that has been in all the other pictures, and without the insert he sits very differently in the seat, so that comparison is out. 

And so we bring you pink dog.  See Calvin now compared to Calvin newborn.  See Calvin newborn compared to pink dog.  See pink dog compared to Calvin now.  We see an "if then" problem in there somewhere.

WARNING! Viewing unexpected pink dog pictures shortly after imbibing large quantities of diet cola may cause one to nearly pee one's pants!

Obviously Cortney cannot be trusted with Calvin's toys and large quantities of Pepto Bismol at the same time. I will be over shortly to confiscate all pink antacids.

Now, now, Liesl, let's not promote gender stereotypes. We'll get you a nice blue doggie, some Matchbox cars, and, of course, we know your Poppa is "going to teach you how to use tools."
