baby boy's first parade

Calvin was sorta diggin' the parade at first, but his concerned look turned into this when the fire truck blew its horn. Poor guy. Hopefully he is not traumatized for the rest of the summer...

happenings in the hoyt household

Here in the Hoyt Household we have all taken turns being sick and we are hoping we can avoid antibiotics for a long time! Other than all of the trips we've taken to the doctor and pediatrician we have enjoyed all the fun things that come along with Spring. Calvin is growing bigger every day and we are completely smitten with that cute boy! We love his smiles and coos. He is such a joy and we are learning so much daily. 

When he was five weeks old, we got his picture taken. Here are a few of our favorites...

We are looking forward to a fun summer!

babymoon

Jake and I decided that we needed one last trip before our bundle of joy makes his appearance in March. My two qualifications for the trip was that it would not be a long flight (bad ears+no meds=no bueno)  and it needed to be a place where I could relax...so for our "babymoon" Jake and I decided to vacation in beautiful San Diego. The weather was perfect! We hung out at the beach, relaxed at the resort, and even went to a NFL game.

 

For the game, Jake bought himself a San Diego Chargers shirt and an Oakland Raiders shirt for me. "Raider nation" turned out to be quite a rowdy crowd but we had a lot of fun cheering for both teams until the game was over and we walked back to our rental car which had been towed....

When we first found out we were prego, I decided that we would not find out the sex of the baby until birth and make it a surprise! Sounds fun right?!? Jake was not too fond of this idea however...so after months of debating/compromising the date of our ultrasound came. We had our doctor put our big news in an envelope and we decided to open it on christmas. Well, having that envelope laying around for weeks was very tempting for the man of the house so being the nice wife, I brought the envelope with us on our trip where we opened it at coronado beach!
