“Brushing” His Tooth

This is a video just for Nana. Carson was “brushing” the tooth he HAD. That’s right…HAD…after seeing the tooth a couple of millimeters above the gum for about 3 or 4 days the tooth disappeared!!! And it hasn’t come back since. So Carson is still toothless!

First Tooth

So this is one of five posts that I’ve posted tonight, so make sure you scroll down through them all.

Carson has his first tooth poking through. He’s been a little cranky off and on. It poked through last Sunday or Monday. Of course, he couldn’t be part of the norm…so the tooth he is getting is not his bottom front...it’s not even the top front…it’s a side tooth on the bottom left…maybe a molar?? or a canine?? Kind of hard to tell when it’s just a bump and there are no other teeth for relative location! I’ll keep you posted once we can tell what it actually is!

Carson all “Beet” up

We went to Farmer’s Market on Saturday and bought some good looking beets for Carson to try along with some broccoli. Carson tried beets for the first time this weekend…unfortunately this weekend Carson also learned how to “blow” food out of his mouth. Not the best combo. On top of it, daddy was feeding him and doesn’t have quite as much practice SmileBut the good news is, he liked beets and broccoli as well as lentils, eggs, and plain yogurt!! We still haven’t found anything he won’t eat.

I think the beets were maybe for lunch on Saturday. Friday night Steve was feeding Carson and I think it was the BIGGEST mess Carson has ever made!!

Samantha’s 3rd Birthday Party

Last Saturday we went to Stockton to celebrate Sam’s (our niece) 3rd birthday. They had a bounce house in the back yard for the kids to play in (and some of us brave adults too). We had pizza and cake and Sam got to open her presents. Everyone had a good time. Here are a few pictures from the event.

This is me and Carson in the bounce house…he wasn’t so sure about it!!

Nice Weather

We had some beautiful weather a couple of weeks ago, so Carson hung out on the front lawn while Steve and I got a little yard work done.

New Artwork

After remodeling our family room, we decided we needed some art above our fireplace. We had looked at a few pieces in our favorite furniture store (which has now closed Sad smile) but didn’t find the right color combination. We found out the artist was actually a store employee and she agreed to do a custom piece for us. She just finished it about a week ago…at 38 weeks pregnant!!! They brought it over and we absolutely LOVE it!! It is perfect for the colors and feel of the room. Here it is…what do you think??

What you can’t see in these pictures is our carpet in the room. It has a wavy pattern similar to that in the artwork.
