As he always is...

Grandma and papa came over to hang out with us for awhile. We ate pizza and watched a movie. Or I mean, we tried to watch a movie...Carson wouldn't have it. He succeeded at being the center of attention as he always seems to be. He was talking the whole time, and rolling around and giggling, and just being Carson. We all took turns holding him and loving on him, which is exactly what he wanted. And what Carson wants, Carson apparently gets. Thats it for now, were going to go snuggle on the couch so the little man can go to sleep.

Clapping

Carson looves to clap, he just gets tickled to death about it. We do patty cake all the time, so now he does it with me when i'm singing it to him. Sometimes one hand will be rolled into a fist, but its soo cute.

Carson has a tooth!

Finally! It's on the bottom in the front. It's so cute. It's still clear so its a little hard to see it, but I can see it, and can definitely feel it too, its pretty sharp. Infact, I noticed it on the night of the 15th which was when he turned 9mos old. It was probably there growing a couple days earlier but I only noticed it on that night so thats the date we will go with. I can't wait for it to grow out all the way, so he can give me his best big toothy smile. Will post pictures of it when it becomes more visible.

9 months old today!!

WOW! I can say time has just flown by like lightning. My life has never gone by so fast as it does now. How does it that having a child makes that happen...strange...so of course we celebrated by playing outside which gave mom (me) photo ops!!! Go Mom!!! Here are some of those...and some cute closeups...

I'm so so tired maa..(means get the camera out of my face)

I love the way Carson sleeps. It's so peaceful.

Carson...doing pushups??

Carson has been doing this for awhile, and its hard to catch it on camera, cause he doesn't do it for very long each time. I barely caught it this time. He sticks that butt up so high in the air, its soo funny to see.

Birthday Cake...

So I have been looking around for someone to make his "smash" cake and then a sheet cake for all of his friends and family. I found a place in boise

Cute little boy...and a cherrio!

There isn't any significance about the cheerio, there was just one laying on the floor above his head and I didn't notice it till I snapped the picture. Carson is always trying to grab my jeans and play with my toes, especially when their painted.

Carson's first 4th of July!

We had a good first 4th of July with carson. We went to Mike's aunt and uncle's house and BBQ'd. It's an amazing house. So big! They even have a big Boise State Bronco room equipped with projector screen and theatre style seating that vibrates. Big beautiful yard w/ so many places to sit around a fire pit. The fireworks were great. Because of the location, we got to see several. We saw caldwell's, nampa's,melba, and homedale's. We saw fireworks in every direction, and they were pretty. Carson didn't pay attention to all the lights in the sky, he was too busy either sleeping thru it or just looking around. I'm bummed that I didn't take any pictures of him in his red,white, and blue outfit. Hope everyone was safe and had a good holiday!

YOU ARE SO DELICIOUSLY CUTE! I AM HAVING SO MUCH FUN WATCHING YOU GROW EVERYDAY. I'M ALSO HAVING LOTS OF FUN PLANNING YOUR BIG BACKYARD 1ST BIRTHDAY PARTY! I WILL TRY NOT TO SMOTHER YOU SO MUCH ON THAT SPECIAL UPCOMING DAY CAUSE THERE WILL BE LOTS OF OTHER PEOPLE WANTING TO SQUEEZE ON YOU, BUT I'M YOUR MOMMY SO I GET TO TAKE YOU BACK WHENEVER I WANT. :)
