We have a park just a couple of blocks from our house. Saturday we took Carson down to the park for the first time. Wasn’t the best day to be down there. Although it looked like a beautiful day it was COLD! We didn’t stay too long.
Carson loved the swing!
He didn’t quite know what to think about the slides.
Last Saturday (2/19) Carson started rolling over from his back to his tummy. He is now a pro and is doing it all the time!
Here’s a video of him. You’ll have to excuse my horrible videography skills!
Saturday we drove up to Red Bluff to see my grandma…Carson’s Great Grandma Bird. It was the first time the two of them met as well as the first time Carson has met his Great Uncle Robert. We decided to surprise Grandma since it is her 89th birthday on Tuesday. She got to spend some time with Carson and we took her out to lunch. It was a long day, but well worth it!! We hope Uncle Robert and Grandma enjoyed it as much as we did!
On our way home we stopped at Grandma Prudhel’s house and went to dinner with her. She was happy to see Carson…especially since the last time she saw him he wasn’t feeling so good and was a little cranky!
Just a few pictures taken over the last few weeks.
Hanging out with Coco Bean
He sleeps holding on to both of his ears.
We have a whole series of pictures of him smiling and laughing. I think we’re going to put together a print that will show the whole series.
In the last week or so, Carson has really started to take an interest in his toes. He actually sits up pretty well by himself for short periods of time, but those toes are so interesting that he bends in half and takes a header most of the time trying to get them in his mouth.
In addition to finding his toes, he’s also found his voice. He talks and talks and talks.
Apparently our cat, Sam, understands Carson’s language. Here they are having a conversation.
Mirror mirror on the wall…who the heck is that baby and why won’t he talk at all??
Toes make for great entertainment.
This is a long overdue post! I just realized it’s been 3 weeks since I’ve posted anything. Where does the time go?? So this will be the first in a string of posts in an attempt to get up-to-date.
The day before Carson started daycare (1/18) is the first day Carson rolled over from his tummy to his back. Of course we didn’t catch it on video, but we actually did a few days later!
Carson started daycare on Wednesday and so far he has done great! The first day they told me he never cried or fussed and that he is such a good baby! The second day he fussed a little in the morning when he was going down for a nap, but that was it. I think he is loving watching all the other kids.
Carson had his 3 month doctor’s appt today. We’re off from the normal schedule because they were trying to give infants the DTap as soon as possible. So at 3.5 months he’s:
14lb 15oz
25 inches
40.5 cm head
And Steve decided to share his cold with both me and Carson, so the poor little guy has a runny nose, is sneezing like crazy, and coughs occasionally. Hopefully he gets over it soon!
Here’s a picture we took on Tuesday after we went on a walk.
