August Pictures

Here is a picture of me and Carter at Table Rock lake. We went down the 2nd weekend in August. He loves the lake, and the boat rides. We swam, relaxed, ate good, and enjoyed a weekend with friends.
He loves my phone. I am sure he will get one all too soon.
Don't pay attention to the snotty nose. I just thought his expression was so sweet here.
I just can't believe how strong our little guy is. He loves to climb all over the furniture. This is an action shot of him holding his "push up" position.
I had to take this pic. He is going to be a computer guy just like dad. He loves to watch Sesame Street videos on you tube.

August was so busy that I didn't get near as many pictures as normal. I think July was just so crazy after his birthday that I just didn't keep up. I always say I am going to do better at posting more regularly, but things are just always so busy. I can't believe it is the middle of September already and I just posted summer pictures. I am going to try and highlight the summer with the major things:

• Took our first family trip in June to Destin, FL
• Hot summer, so enjoyed lots of water time outside
• Turned 2 on July 27th and had a big birthday on July 23rd with a big water slide.
• Went to the lake a couple of times
• Got in first real accident when he fell off the deck (it left one big bruise)
• Language has changed so much...he puts sentences together all the time, and his memory just blows my mind.
• He can count to 10 and we are already working on to 20. (also some Spanish numbers)
• Loves to dance and sing! (knows the words to Jesus Loves Me, Twinkle Little Star)
• Had a good 2 year checkup. 31 lbs (just above 75%) and 34 in tall (just below 75%).

I am sure there are so many other things, but this is what I could think of for the summer. And I can think of so much more he has done in the past couple of weeks. He changes so fast it is hard to keep up with.

July 27th---Carter's Second Birthday

These are the pics from Chuck E Cheese. Just the three of us went out to eat actually on his 2nd birthday. He loves to play all the games.
Momma and Carter on the big rocking horse.


He has so much fun!

What a wonderful gift Carter has been. I just wish I could slow down time! He is growing up way to fast. He is smart, fun, handsome, clever, funny...and I could go on and on. These past two years have been absolutely amazing. At times he can try my patience, but what kid doesn't. I love watching him grow and change every day. He is becoming his own little person. I feel so blessed to have a healthy and happy toddler!!! I love you Carter!!! Mommy

Second Part of July

Opening up some of his birthday presents. He got so many great toys.


Eating one of the cookies from his birthday.
SO excited about his new tricycle!!!

Early July--23 months

Went to the park on the 4th of July. It was very hot outside, but we had fun anyways. We didn't really do much on the 4th weekend. Just hung out in town.

Broke out the slip n slide for some water fun.
I just love this expression. He looks so innocent.
His hair is too funny in this pic!


WOW....it has been way too long since I have written. Time flies by so quick. These picture are from before his birthday so this is a little out of order. I just had to post the birthday pics first.
