New Faces, New Places

Over the past week Calvin has seen numerous new places and several new faces. Mostly really just traveling to places to meet new family. Well, actually traveling up to Santa Barbara and staying at the Grandparentals Van house for a few days. Aunt Susu came out to California for her spring break and so we all headed up to Santa Barbara to hang out with her (before she came down to Pasadena to hang out with us for a while).

But before we headed up to Santa Barbara, Ellie, Cal and I stopped by KTLA to meet Nick's coworkers and friends. Everyone was so kind and we ended up hanging out for over an hour meeting everyone.


After our travel up to Santa Barbara, Ellie, Cal and I went over to visit Great-Grandma Van. Calvin's first new face and new place!

The next day Aunt Susu was set to arrive that night (and despite delayed flights for which Nick was able to help and get Susie up to Santa Barbara). We spent the day hanging out in SB, seeing the sights, and doing what we normally do and what is normal (and soon to be normal) for Ellie. Ellie was so excited to see her beloved aunt. And Susie was so excited to meet her nephew. Cal's next new face was Aunt Susie!




As a family we headed over to visit Great-Grandpa Van. He was in a great mood and we had a terrific visit. He actually thought Calvin was hilarious, especially when he cried.




Calvin is going to meet loads more people and family in the next few weeks and months and for the rest of his first year and it will be super exciting for him, although he may not remember it. It was definitely be exciting for Nick, Ellie and I though!
