Visiting Baby Keira

This weekend Gabe, Carson, and I made the trek to Vermillion to visit our NEW NIECE, Keira Renee!  We were so excited to see her. .and Brandon and Erin of course!  She is just perfect and we were so excited to get to see her and cuddle with her!  I was interested to see how Carson would react!  When I first picked her up, he looked at me and said, "Mommy, hold me!"  After the initial newness of her, he warmed up!  He was even eager to hold her and love on her! It was so cute because he wanted to hold her all by himself! :)  He is going to be a great big brother!
Congrats Brandon and Erin on your adorable baby girl!

Just a few pictures to share from the day. . .

CARSON IS 2!!

I can't believe my baby boy is 2 YEARS OLD today!  It is so crazy how time flies!  I need to do a 2 year update, because Carson continues to entertain us each day with the things he says and does!  He is such a ham!  Just a conversation this morning that we had.
He got up about 6:10 and comes running into our room. There was more said but this is the main part of our conversation!
Me:  Happy Birthday!
Carson: Mommy, I help you up.  Go get milk in fridge.
Me: Whose birthday is today?
Carson: Carson's birthday.
Me: How old are you today?
Carson: I two!
He then comes and lays in bed with us for maybe 30 seconds and then turns to me and says, "Mommy, can I watch Woody pease?"  How can you say no to that?!?! :)

Happy Birthday Carson! Mommy and Daddy love you so very much!!

Sunday Funday!

What a great Sunday spent at home!  We went to church, had lunch, watched Daddy put some dirt in around our new patio (pics of that to come later), made a few treats, watched 'Woody', played, and got a hair cut! I decided to cut Carson's hair on a whim today--he was starting to get a mullet in the back!  He looks like such a big boy every time he gets a haircut!  After his haircut he was full of hair so he took a shower with Daddy.  Carson then just ran around in his diaper the rest of the evening and was being a big cheese! This is when my camera came out! :)  
Love him to death! :)

Big Boy Bed!

This weekend we were on a mission to find Carson a new toddler bed for his birthday--which isn't for another few weeks.  Finding one was a success but not sure I am ready for all this yet!  Yesterday Gabe had it put together and was on a mission to completely re-organize his entire room to make space for his new bed. Little did I know that Gabe had the intention of getting Carson in the bed yesterday and taking away all crib access.  This mommy was a little sad and hesitant--but not Daddy--he had everything moved around and ready for Carson to take his nap in his new bed.  He even moved the crib springs up so it is ready for the new baby (and so Mommy couldn't try and put Carson back in it!)  Carson did awesome at nap time and he went to bed really well last night as well.  I tucked blankets on each side of him and lined the floor too just in case he were to roll out--I know it's not far to the floor but just to be safe!  
Every time I woke up last night, I went in and checked on him to make sure he was still in bed.  I know. . . I was a bit apprehensive about the whole thing! The first time, about 2:30 this morning, I went in and he was sound asleep ON THE FLOOR next to his bed!  Little Stinker!  I don't know if he rolled out or just got out and laid on the floor!  I moved him back to his bed and then woke up again at 5 and went in and checked on him--this time he was still in bed but was laying a way that his feet were dangling off the side of his bed.  This morning when I went to shower he was completely sleeping opposite of his pillow!  All in all. . it was a VERY successful night of sleep in the big boy bed!  Hopefully every night gets a little easier for this Mommy-- I can't believe how fast my little boy is growing up!  A few more weeks and I will have a 2 YEAR OLD!

Below are a few pictures I took at nap time!  I have yet to put the matching sheets on, but the pillow case and comforter are there!  
For those of you that don't know. . Carson is OBSESSSSSSSSSSED with Toy Story right now!  He has his own Woody and Buzz and has all 3 Toy Story movies!  We have to watch 'Woody' when we get up in the mornings and when we come home at night!  So when we found this toddler bed set, we couldn't resist! :)
