Angry too big calves? too thin thighs/arms?

Hi guys,
I've got a question-- is it possible to "over-build" a muscle through cardio? I've been feeling that my calves are getting pretty strong (i walk a lot, sometimes do bicycle and elliptical, dancing) so i went to mybodycomp-- sure enough, my calves were slightly bigger while my thighs and arms were way below (ie. no muscle at all). Should i maybe add hand weights to my walking routine or just switch to lifting weights? maybe try tai boe or something less leg-intensive? I thought cardio was more for fat burning though, and not building muscle. Do muscles tend to build in certain parts of the body first? Any suggestions/comments welcomed (including that i'm paranoid and should relax....lol)
