Sleepy boy

Carter's favorite color - Blue!

So Thankful for this little boy!

And by little boy, I do mean BOY...every day he is reminding us that he is no longer a baby...and is, in fact, a BOY!

Almost every day he is saying a new word or doing something new. It really just amazes us.

Here is a list of Carter's vocabulary (well, the words that we can make out).
- Daddy (this he says perfectly)
- Ma Ma
- Dog (Dah or Wooo)
- Owl
- Bird (Buh)
- Blue
- Moon (Mouhh)
- Fan (fah)
- Shoe
- This
- Up
- Snake (more like ssssss but we know what he means lol)
- Night Night (Nye nye)
- Nose (No)
- Eye
- Ball
- Boo (as in peek-a-boo)
- Hi
- Bye

there are a few that he THINK he says but he really hasn't perfected it - Like he says a B sound when given Bananas.

Daddy is home!

Richard's finally home from a week long trip work trip to India. Oh, boy, it ends up being LONG week when he is away. It really makes me have so much respect for single mamas. Not sure how they do it. To be the sole one responsible for...well, EVERYTHING....it's pretty stressful. I am super lucky it is normally only a week at a time.

Good thing my family is awesome and I had someone over visiting and helping out almost every night he was gone. Thank goodness...b/c we also had quite of a bit of teething going on...that makes for one cranky boy.

BUT now Daddy is back....and the teeth seem to be not bothering C as much.

We took advantage of the FABULOUS weather this weekend and spent a bit of it just playing around outside. It is getting harder and harder to get good pictures of C actually looking at the camera b/c he is just running all over the place now.

Just a fall day....And lots of pictures

Aunt Kirby once again stole C from "school" and did a little photoshoot with the little man and Grandpop :-) Carter had a great time getting all dirty and playing in the leaves!

Carter's Artwork

Carter has officially moved into the BIG BOY room at "school" - aka - the Toddler room. And in the toddler room, they do "art projects" and have "gym".

I am so proud of him for accomplishing all of the things he needed move up (walking on his own, eating on his own and off the bottle) BUT it is a little sad that he is no longer a baby.

Here are some of Carter's masterpieces :-)
