When sharks attack

So my darling husband found a really interesting shark show on t.v. recently and I think I will have to ban all such shows from our house in the future. Don't get me wrong, I love a good educational show. However, I think that said show had a negative impact on the little one. Ever since that night Calum has been wanting to chew on anything and everything. It's pretty funny because he just grabs onto things and brings them up to his mouth. Don and I have suffered the most - our fingers, hair, shoulders, clothes....all chewed on. He's so focused on his biting too - like it's the most important thing in the world. I know this means that teething is just around the corner and I must say I'm not looking forward to it. While Calum is a well behaved, happy little boy most days he can get in a really bad mood [like when I try to get him to take a bottle for example].

Another milestone passed. Calum is now 5 months old. Yeah, already. Where does the time go? We still don't know if Calum has gotten into daycare yet. We should find out before September. He's been having a great time with Grandma Bain but it's time to get him used to other little babies. When he reaches 6 months we will be enrolling him [and me] in aqua babies for his first introduction to swimming. We've already got his swimming costume and a new practice pool [still waiting for warmer weather to try it out]. He'll soon be ready for baby sign language classes too. Dakota and I have signed up for some lessons starting at the end of September. We will go once a week for 10 weeks while Don and Desiree get to babysit Calum.
