Carson's 7 Month Update


Carson is so much fun. Here's what he's been up to:
-He rolls everywhere! 

-He's not crawling but sometimes he does this cute scoot thing on his bum. 

-Another tooth popped through. He's got 3 now. I think more may be coming in though.

-He still loves all kinds of baby food. And he still doesn't like nursing very much. And somewhere in the past few months he stopped taking a bottle...? So getting him to drink anything has been a challenge. I'm at a loss.

-He's not as happy as he was last month. Ever since we got back from Arizona, he's been a grump and teething. So that hasn't been too fun. Thank you Ashley for teaching us about Kidstv123 on Youtube. It has been a life savor! That is the only thing that keeps Carson happy for more than 5 minutes.

-He's growing more hair and it's coming in lighter! I think he's going to have light brown hair. Some patches are pure blonde though. He's got 2 different colors going right now--it's cute.

Arizona 2012

We got to fly to Arizona this Summer and it was so much fun! Carson did pretty good flying. I was so incredibly nervous about it. He did cry a little on the way there but we sat next to a nice guy who didn't mind...the 3 beers he drank must have helped. On the way back he slept the whole way! He did great. 

Here he is on the way there.

Amber & Warren blessed Leah while we were there. Here are some pictures of the night.
I'm a mean mom. Poor Carson.
We went to the Aquarium

Carson & Andrew loved playing together!

Carson had so much fun playing with all their cool toys!

We went swimming and Carson loved his blow up chair. He almost fell asleep in it at one point. He was so relaxed!

4th of July

Mean Uncle Cory wasn't so mean after all...

Here are some of us saying goodbye
 
We had so much fun! It was so good seeing all the new babies and family. We miss everyone already!

Ohio Visit

We drove to Ohio to visit Jimett and Tom and her family. We celebrated Jimett's birthday and attended baby Camille's blessing. Trevor and Karin & Grandpa Wes and Emmy were there too. It was great to see them! We had a lot of fun spending time with family. 

Carson loved meeting his great-grandparents and playing with his cousins!

Carson's 6 Month & Father's Day


This boy is 6 months and super cute! He is happy all the time and takes great naps! He loves all kinds of baby food and is just a sweetheart. I love that I can set him down and give him something to play with and he'll just sit there and play. I am loving this stage so much! We started giving him those little puffs--it is adorable watching him learn how to grab one and put it in his mouth. 

This was our gift to Dada for Father's day:

We had a lot of fun doing this and Cory loved it! 

Happy Father's Day, Cory! 
We love you so much. Carson loves playing with you! You're the best Dad! Thanks for taking care of us.
