In case you haven't guessed the last daddy I am going to talk about is Callan! Yes, I am aware he isn't yet a dad, but at the same time I think he kind of is.
Callan is the most patient, kind, loving, funny, smartest guy I know! And I am so happy that he is my husband of a year... YES! A year on June 11. I will post about that later...
Callan is going to be the best dad. I have always known he is good with kids, but these last 2 weeks have really shown me the kind of guy Callan is.
We have had a busy 2 weeks with baby showers, Lagoon, and having my sister stay with us for a week. So there has been very little sleep, and lots of kids!
All but 5 of the 11 grandkids on my moms side are under the age of 12.
And they were all here for a week. And of course they all LOVE Callan!
Callan doesnt mind one bit either. Even though he gets up at 4:30 am every day and is out the door by 5:10am and works outside all day in the heat and has a VERY physically demanding job, he still has this immense love and patience towards people.
My family hiked up to the "Y" on the mountain in Provo in 90* weather. It is a very BIG hike and a hard one, especially with a ton of little ones. Well, the made it to the top and back down, and I waited at the bottom for 2 hours. They finally all got back! Except for my grandma, my brother Caleb, and my little cousin Lucas. Well, Callan who had already carried little Lucas to the top of the Y ran up with water bottles to find them.
We waited, and waited for 10 or so minutes, and here comes Caleb, my grandma and Callan carrying little Lucas fast asleep in his arms. :)
We also went to Lagoon on beautiful Friday with the whole family. Of course Miss Olivia wanted to ride every ride with Callan. And after he did that he finally sneaked away with the big kids! He came back later to hang out with me and my ginormous feet, I dont know if you could call them feet anymore actually....They were SO swollen. Well, my cousin Lilly had been taking care of me and hanging out with me while everyone went on the bigger kid rides. She decided she wanted to go on the Colosus a HUGE roller coaster that goes upside down and is crazy fun! So her and Callan went over there and stood in line and then she changed her mind. She ended up going on it later, and then after she realized how fun it was grabbed Callans hand and they rode it 6 TIMES IN A ROW!!!! Callan you are such a trooper!!!
There have been so many examples of how amazing Callan is, and how loving and good with kids he is just in the past 2 weeks. I am so excited to be having a baby with this man. He really is the essence of pure love. 22 more days baby!
