Don Pedro Lake

We went up to Don Pedro with our neighbors the last weekend in July. Carson did really well on the patio boat. It took a little to get him to take a nap, but he finally did. He loved being in the water and had fun crawling around on the boat. Maybe next year we’ll take him out on the jet ski.

We’ve Got A Walker In The Making

Well, I know I am way behind on posting, so I’ll try to catch up here soon. We’ve been busy this summer…we’ve been to the Oakland Zoo, Don Pedro Lake, and met up with lots of friends. It’s been a great summer!

Back to last night…

Carson officially turned 11 months last night. We were at our friend’s house for dinner and… Carson decided to start taking his first steps!! He started taking 2-3 steps between their cabinets. Today he started to get a little more adventurous.  I’m sure it will just be a matter of time before he’s off and running.

We caught him on video tonight.

4th of July Camping Trip

I’m slowly trying to catch up on everything. Carson’s first camping trip was a success!! We went camping at Standish Hickey Camp Ground near Leggett with my parents and my uncle. He did really well on the car ride up there. We had perfect weather! It was in the mid 80’s during the day and the high 40’s/low 50’s at night. We had to bundle him up a bit so he didn’t get cold, but he did really well. He loved walking his wagon up and down the road and liked riding in his wagon up and down the road even better! He also loved splashing around in his little “pool” (which was actually his bath tub when he was littler).

Here are some pictures from our trip…hopefully I an get my act together and get a couple of videos up soon too!

Pixie Woods

The last weekend in June we met Steve’s mom and our nephew, Shawn at Pixie Woods in Stockton. The place has a lot of different play areas. We weren’t sure if there would be much for Carson to do, but he ended up having a great time! And the weather was perfect too!

Carson still isn’t so sure of slides, but loves the bouncy things.
