Our Sunday. . .

We had a pretty eventful Sunday!  The day started off with Carson waking up. . at 8:40!!! He has never slept that late!  Gabe and I enjoyed the extra hour or so of sleep as well.  We headed to church and our little church family was in awwww of how big Carson is getting.  He was definitely the center of attention smiling at everyone and playing peek-a-boo with people he doesn't even know.  The church we attend here is very small and the majority of the people are elderly.  The pastor loves when babies run all over and really encourages it.  So Gabe and I are quietly sitting in our pew today while our son is up in front pulling off these care packages (that are headed to Africa) that are placed all along the alter.  He then decides he will lay on the steps of the pulpit.  Gabe and I are the ones where we think that our son should be in the pew as to not bother others. . . but oh no, our church family absolutely loves Carson running wild.  Not sure if many people got much out of the sermon today, but they sure had a good little show from our sweet little Carson!

After church, our friends Nicole and Kelly stopped by.  It was so great to see them and Eric and Alic are getting so big!!!  I miss them living close.  Carson was napping when they arrived but woke up to Eric and Alic playing with his toys! :)  Carson is very in aww of big kids lately. It was so cute to see them play.

As they were leaving, my sister stopped by quick.  She came and stayed with us Friday night but had a bachelorette party in Des Moines on Saturday.  She was on her way back to Spencer so stopped and gave Carson one last hug!

I attempted to give Carson his 2nd haircut tonight since it was getting fluffy and long again.  We first tried to cut it outside but Carson was not having it.  I was about to give up on the whole thing but had an idea.  I put him up on the bathroom counter to play in the sink.  This worked!  He loved turning the faucet on and off.  By the end of his haircut he was completely submerged in a sink full of water. . pants and all!

After the haircut, I wanted to take a few 1 year pictures.  This did not turn out so swell.  He was getting a bit tired and refused to look at the camera or smile. . .for 99% of the pics. So trial one. . fail.  Hope to try again maybe next weekend!  Gabe wanted me to post this one. . with his crazy eyes! :)  I must have done something pretty funny!

Here is a picture of his fly-a-way hair before the haircut!
 Tonight Carson decided to just be a naked baby! With the new do!
 Playin with the truck that Kelly gave him!  Thanks Kel!
 Attempting to get on his four-wheeler. . .
 He eventually mastered getting on all by himself!  I caught him doing this. . hilarious!
