Mother’s Day

We had a nice Mother’s Day. Steve’s mom and our neighbors came over for brunch around 10am and then we relaxed and did nothing the rest of the day.

Steve and Carson gave me something I desperately needed for Mother’s Day…a gift certificate for a massage. I’m hoping to head there this Friday. I should have gone last Friday, but I thought about it too late!!

But the most ironic part of Mother’s Day is that Carson’s new sound of the day was “dadadadadad” which he continued to jabber non stop ALL day. It was pretty funny though.

“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 But 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!!

I LOVE this picture. Steve and I have both been playing with the picture in Lightroom.  Here are few variations.

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.
