Calvin Tyler: Thirty-two weeks old

This week we ventured to the Omaha zoo with cousin Sarah! Calvin did pretty well on the trip. He enjoyed the goats, slept a bit in the rainforest, and loved the aquarium. He did not, however, enjoy sleeping in the pack 'n play! I guess he's a mattress snob!

He's also decided that we are making the transition to two naps and for the most part he's doing ok. Even if we are driving around at like 5:00 he won't give in and take that third nap. As long as we can be outside in the evening he's not too crabby. Hopefully the weather stays nice until he's past this transition. Otherwise we might have to let him take more baths to keep him calm until bedtime!

Along the same lines of sleeping, try as we might, Calvin thinks it's time to be done sleeping in our arms. He's never been a huge fan of it and has mostly preferred to fall asleep on his own in his bed, but on occasion I have been able to convince him to snuggle on me and sleep on me if we are out and about and he's tired. Saturday night he refused to fall asleep in my arms even though we were out at a wedding until 10:00. He would get almost asleep and then would scream and violently try to throw himself out of my arms. Fortunately he still likes to sleep in the car and in the Ergobaby.
