Calvin turned 6 months old last week. I know what you’re thinking…6 MONTHS ALREADY!? I am thinking the same! Buh-leave ME! So, in honor of his little milestone, I have decided to dedicate this whole week to Cal. A WHOLE WEEK to my calm, sweet, slobbery baby boy. And to kick-start the week, I have […]
