We went to the circus the other night and Calder’s favorite part was the clowns. And that’s when it hit me. That’s like his perfect career! I can totally see Calder becoming a professional clown. Or being a class clown. Or doing something clown-ish.

May I present my evidence:

Gangsta Clown?

At said circus. Animated–that’s a good word to describe this little boy.

Picture of the Year winner. Clearly, Amelie’s at that posing-gracefully-even-if-you’re- sitting-on-top-of-a-giant-elk-in-the-store-photo-opportunity-spot age. And, clearly, Calder is not. “Here I am. Just me and my elk. Sigh.”

I’ve written before about how he’s always pulling these silly faces when I try to take his picture.

Wonder where he gets it from…
