Tenemos 3 Dientes Ahora

Means we have 3 teeth now in spanish. I just noticed the third one coming in at the top. This one took awhile to get here, but were happy that its finally coming in. Oh, also my brother shawn and his wife amy had their little baby about a week ago. They named him Kaz Ronny Willis. He is handsome. They live in London, so I won't be able to hop right over and visit them. Kaz was born 2 months early so he was a tiny 3lb little boy. Lots of dark hair. Today in the mail, kaz sent his cousin carson a stuffed animal as a Thank You for letting him borrow some of his newborn clothes. I told carson that this was a very special stuffed animal cause it came all the way from England. He gets so excited over everything. More updates later.

I couldn't help myself

Yesterday on the way to walmart, I knew that carson would fall asleep in the car, cause he hadn't take any naps, and so he was pretty zonked out when we got there. Usually when I open the door he will wake up pretty quickly and this time he didn't. This is soo funny to me, but as I was strapping him in the front of the shopping cart, I couldn't believe he was still asleep so you can imagine what this looks like. He didn't have a way to rest his head on anything, so his little head was just bobbing around everywhere this way and that way and back again. I was dying from laughing so hard. Poor little boy, he was soo tired too, but I just couldn't control myself. It probably lasted for a good 2minutes or so too. I suppose I could have left him in the carseat, thats what nice mommies would have done I guess, I didn't think of it at the time. Owell it just gave me another funny memory to remember and to share with him when he gets older.

Finally were getting somewhere

Not that he wasn't doing an excellent job before, but now carson is crawling around making it look easy. BUT, sometimes he gets truckin along so fast that he ends up flopping back down to his tummy and realizes "Oh, wait...I forgot I could crawl this way too", and so he proceeds doing the army crawl. Owell! At least he is finally doing it the right way too. I'm so proud of him. He's also doing a good job moving around the furniture. He's putting those big legs to good use. Maybe he will start walking soon. How nice that would be if he was walking a little by his first birthday. What a surprise that would be to everyone. Keep your fingers crossed for us!!

Playing with the chairs

Now that Carson pulls himself up on everything, he WANTS to be on EVERYTHING!! He always wants to stand where I'm sitting, so this morning, when I was checking my emails and stuff, here he comes, making his way over to where I'm at. So I just had to take a few pictures, cause obviously the chair was too tall for him to stand up against, so he looked really funny holding on to it so tightly.

Surprise visit from GMA DOT!!!!

One of the best surprises I get from time to time is when Carson's GMA DOT calls and says she is in town. We don't get to see her as much as we'd like so anytime she's here, I can't help but want to steal all of her time. I took some pictures of her and carson together outside, and then some of him and GPA Wally, they turned out cute.

New camera=new pictures

Carson and I went to hang out with Grandpa Wally wednesday night. My dad took us to go buy me a birthday present. He wanted to get me a camera so I picked one out. I loove it of course. I've been playing around with it since and have taken a few pictures. My birthday isn't until the first of Sept but we decided to go down this week since he will be busy the upcoming weekends. The pictures below were just taken here at home the last few days. This morning when carson woke from his morning nap, his hair was all spiky, so I decided to leave it that way and get out the camera. He is such a good sport.

Back from Donnelly

We got back on Friday night. We had more fun this trip than the last. The weather wasn't too bad. Rained a little bit, but was warm and comfortable for the most part. Carson showed me one morning how he can climb 2 stairs. So that means, it's time to carson proof our house. He's also saying mama now...I think...I'm positive that's what it sounds like anyway. He also pulls himself up on furniture and is really good at it. We went to Mike's softball games/tournaments all this weekend, and it was fun. Carson got to watch daddy play his games. I dont' know if he was actually paying attention much, but everytime it was his turn to hit, I made sure he looked over in his direction. Carson looved being outside all day. He decided that since there was so much activity going on around him, that he would delay taking his naps 4-5 hours late. Saturday was also a special day cause carson turned 10mos old. I can't believe he is as big as he is. He went from this tiny little tadpole to this huge, big boy! 2 more months left till his big first birthday, I cannot wait for everything to start.

Hot House!!!!

So our air conditioner went out this weekend, and ooooh boy, it's been sizzling in our house. Carson has also been mr. cranky pants the whole time, he wont' stop crying for anything. The very second you walk away from him, your basically in for it. I know it's because its really hot. So i've had the pleasure of talking back and forth to this person and that person, and I still have a broken air conditioner. So I don't know what is going on. Were leaving again for donnelly to stay with daddy on wednesday and coming back on Friday night. Were going to stay in their conditioner-less condo. Out of all the condo's that all the guys on his crew are staying in, the only one that doesn't have an air conditioner (for whatever stupid reason)happens to be mike! So sofar this has been one-hot-week for the munchkin and myself. I put a box fan in the window and opened up the other windows, so hopefully overnight, it can cool off some. Last night carson was so cranky at me and he wouldn't fall asleep so we got in the car, cranked up the air conditioner and went for a joyride. And let me tell you it was very JOYFUL!!! Cold air has never felt so good!! Carson was out by the time we got down the street, but I decided to keep on driving, just incase. I also didn't want to risk taking him to bed too early after falling asleep cause I've done that, and ooh boy carson says "No way mom, I'm not fully asleep yet"..so hopefully tomor goes much better, for myself and my h-o-t little boy!!!!

Carson's first trip to McCall...

We decided to go to mccall to stay a couple days cause we were missing daddy, and he was missing us. We actually stayed in Donnelly where he works, cause they have a condo up there. The weather was definitely not in our favor. It rained a lot! Lots of lightning and thunderstorms, and there lightning is scary. It seems like it always hits right next to you. I had planned to do lots of exploring, but the weather made it hard to even step outside the door. When it did cool off for a few minutes, carson and i jetted of to Mccall, which was only about 15mins or so away. We got hungry so we stopped and ate at the big pancake house. It was good. Carson was being obnoxious in the restaurant, making loud silly sounds. But he was happy, he wasn't fussy so thats good. I gave him little pieces of my toast to keep him quiet while i quickly finished my breakfast. Afterwards, we went downtown and parked the car and went for a stroll. Carson didn't mind at all that I was getting rained on. He was all bundled up and warm in his big soft blankie. We went down by the beach and took some pictures, I dont know how good they will turn out tho since it was really overcast out. We also made a quick stop into the candy store, and got some taffy. Yum yum. After that, we went back to Donnelly where daddy surprised us by being home early from work. Carson and I decided to get back home to our house, so we ended up leaving thursday (yesterday). We were going to stay till today but the weather was yucky. I didn't want to drive in the rain. I ended up driving in it anyway when we left for home. People drive really dangerously over there. Theres lots of corners where you have to slow down to 35mph, and there just cruising around going about 60. There's one part coming out of banks, where there's this narrow bridge and it curves around, and this guy in the other lane, had his entire front tire and back tire in my lane, I don't know how me missed me, i mean, he was soo close to me, I could probably stick my arm out and wrap my arm around him. I'm thankful we didn't get hit, otherwise we would have hit the guardrail and depending on how bad the impact we could have easily flipped into the water. It looked really cold, and we didn't bring swimsuits or life jackets. So we made it back home at about 6, and that was that. I still havent unpacked yet. We might try to go back next week, we hear the weather is nice, so we will see. Maybe we will go back, and i will just leave the bag packed, and I won't have to worry about that part next time. The few pictures I do have will be posted up as soon as i get around to doing it. So it might actually be awhile. :)

Sweeeet Sleeeeping Spot...

So this is the first time that I saw this, and carson must have gotten too tired to find a different place, and he's constantly getting all tangled up under the table and chairs and everthing. So apparently he just got too tired to move, or because he got "stuck" and couldn't move so he just fell asleep under the table. It's so cute. Now I don't know how I'm going to get him out when he wakes up.
