Easter and running

In the last month calvi has really learned to walk. One day he just figured it out and has been walking well running ever since then. I love that he can walk it is so nice that he can go where he needs to and it also entertains him just walking around.
We spent Easter in Twin with our families. Here is Calvi and Ty taking a ride on the tractor. Calvin LOVES tractors, and trucks so going to Twin it a real treat for him.
Here we are at Gma and Gpa Flints decorating Easter eggs. That is about as far as he got.
Tys aunt brought 2 little pug puppies and Calvi was in heaven. The little guys would run around him and lick him and tackle him, he loved it. Here he is with his cousin Laynie and the dogs on the easter egg hunt.
Here is Calvi and ty on the tire swing at Gma and Gpa Rainsdons house. This guy likes to be outside.
He had such a great weekend he was so tired on the way home this is what happened. It was so much fun to see all our family. We had a great time.

Whats been up

We have been super busy this last few weeks i have not had a chance to post anything. A few weeks ago my little sister Jill had her first baby. He was an 8 pounder and so so cute! They named him Jamen Theadore Ramsey. Tyler was out of town from the day she went into the hospital so calvi and i were able to go and spend a few days with them, without having to worry about taking care of ty.
Jill and Kyle stayed at the hospital a few nights and as you can see the kidos had a lot of fun taking over their house. They had so much fun having a cousins sleepover it was so fun to just watch them play.
We had some other friends come and spend a day and night with us and it was really fun to have them. Here we are feeding the ducks. It is still pretty cold but getting warmer.
Last week we were able to go spend a week in Twin Falls at tylers parents greenhouse and help out. Calvi loved the greenhouse, he LOVES to be outside and he will sit by the door and just cry to be outside. Here he is helping out dad. It was really fun to see everyone down there.
Here are the twiners. Not really but they are cousins there is Calvin and Laynie who is 4 months younger but they look the same age and size from behind. they loved watching the dogs in the front yard at gma and gpa Flints house.
We went to see my parents on the way back and Calvin being the outside freak he is drug Gma and Gpa out with him for over an hour. He had so much fun having them follow him around he kept pointing at Gpas tractors and before you know it he was out riding one around the house. what a spoiled little boy. He is so lucky to have so many Gma and Gpas to love and take care of him.
We have been having a lot of fun around the house calvi has discovered that he LOVES the backyard and sandbox. we have also been going for bike rides and trying to get outside more. hope it keeps getting warmer cause we are ready for summer weather it is hot or not!

Just some stuff

A few weeks ago we went to Twin to do a baby shower for my little sister Jill. We had a really great time seeing friends and family. Grandpa got the horses ready so we could take a ride. I gave clara a ride then i gave calvi a ride. They thought it was pretty fun. After the kids had fun my dad and i went for a ride. I had a great time since it has been forever since i have ridden on a horse.
Here is calvi just hangin in his toy box he really likes sitting in it. Ty wanted a picture with him in it so when he is 18 we can tell him he fit in the little box with his legs straight!!
Here is calvi riding his little dino. He really loves to push it around and his new thing is he likes to get pulled around the house using tylers belt. It is so cute he just sits there hangin on for the ride.

San Franscisco

So this last week we spent on a little trip to San Fran. Tyler had some work conference there and so we went with him and another guy from work. We had a really great time exploring the city. We would drop tyler off and then go out exploring. Here is calvi one lunch eating his happy meal. Cavlin was very friendly to mostly all the wrong things. He loved to share his food with tiny animals usually pesky dirty pigeons. He also made a lot of friends with homeless people and just any one we sat by on the bus or walking around. He is just so cute who could not say hi to him.
We found this park with this awesome water thing that was right by our hotel. This was his favorite place on the whole trip he played in that water for a long time and got all wet. We brought dad back to show him.
We met Tyler on a little break and here is his name tag stuck to the back of calvis head.

Calvin spent his 1st birthday in California. It was Sunday and we made him a jam sandwich with a candle on top. He thougth it was kinda weird but whatever. That is about all we did for his b-day but we did celebrate it more when we got back i will post that in a bit.
Here we are waiting to get on the cable car for a ride. That was one of my favorite things to ride. We got a city bus muni pass and we rode all kinds of stuff.
We got lost on our way to church but we ended up here Lombard st. the super crooked road. It was crazy but we had to walk up it to get where we wanted to be. It was a great view from the top.
We walked around the Golden Gate Park for one afternoon. I wish we had parks like that here in Idaho it was so big we barley got to see anything. Here are the boys at the Japanese Garden area.
Tyler had a couple days where they didn't have meetings on one day we took a ferry to Alcatraz Island. It was a really awesome experience. The view was amazing and we could have not asked for better weather for the whole trip. It was nothing but sunny clear skies the whole time we were there.
Here are the boys looking out at the Golden Gate bridge. It was so clear we were able to get an awesome view of both bridges and the city.
Here we are in the prison cells. They were really interesting to go see. It was a self guided tour where we just had headsets and just listened and walked where they told us to. It was really fun.
We went to the park and Tyler was drinking a Gatorade and Calvi wanted to try and he LOVED it as you can see he would not let go till it was gone.
Here are my boys like father like son. Tyler was on the phone and so calvi had to be just like him so they both were on the phone during dinner. It is pretty funny how calvin picks up on things like that.
One day we spent with my cousin Allison. It was really fun, we knew she lived in San Fran but we didnt know where and we ended up running into her husband at church. They lived only a 15 min walk from our hotel. It was so nice to be able to hang out with her and go to her house and have some space for calvi to crawl around. We went to a fun Chinese dance performace and saw some fun stuff. She also cooked us a wonderful dinner and tyler and mark met us there after their meetings.
On our last day there we went down to the piers and hung around there. Here is calvi loving the little beach we found. He was such a great traveler he seriously spent a whole week in this stroller and as long as there was something to see he never complained.
Here is Calvi on our way home at the airport. He loved to look out the windows and see all the airplanes take off and all the other moving things.

Here are the boys on the airplane on the ride home. Calvi did so good on the airplanes he had 2 both ways and he slept for 3 out of 4 it was so awesome. We had a really good time and saw so many fun things. But after a week we were ready to come home to our wonderful little quiet town.
