15 month check up and stats

I just realized I never posted Carter's 15 month check up info. These past few months have been very busy! I didn't get to go with Carter because I had called in sick a couple of days before and we were really busy at work. Grandma Emily took him and said he did great. Who knows though because Grandma always says her grandsons are perfect!

Weight: 25 lbs 7 1/2 ozs (60th%)
Height: 31 1/4 in. (50th%)

Sounds perfect to me. The nurse and doctor said everything looked good and we had a healthy boy!

I also haven't updated on some of our newest things. Carter is starting to climb on to things. He is not afraid of anything. He loves to wrestle around with daddy and Ellie too. One night I was making dinner and Carter was in the living room, it was way to quiet so I went to check on him and he had climbed up on our rocking chair! We had no clue he could even do that. Everyone has been teaching Carter lots of new things. He can point to everyone when asked, he knows who all of his family is. Probably because everyone spoils him to death! Another favorite activity is reading books. He especially loves all of the pop-up ones.

We feel very blessed during this holiday season to have a happy and healthy growing boy!

First of November Pics (15 months)

Carter likes to try on his dads shoes. He does a little dance in them too!!
A typical Saturday morning. Carter goes in a wakes dad up. C'mon dada please read my farm book.
This is Carter during the Raiders vs Chiefs game. Nothing like a mohawk in our Raiders jumpsuit. And it obviously brought them good look!
First time in the car shopping cart. He looked it for almost 3/4 through the store. Than got a little tired and was ready to get out!!!

Our big guy just continues to grow and learn every day. I can't believe he is 16 months old and it is already holiday time!!!

Happy Halloween

These pictures are blurry, but little Tigger wouldn't sit still so they were the best ones we could get. He actually didn't mind being in the costume. He just wouldn't stop moving!

Our neighbors gave him a banana when he went to trick or treat. He loved it!!
Finally one good picture of Pooh (cousin Henry) and Tigger.
Tigger running more after the photo op.

We had such a nice Halloween. All the family came over for chili/soup and hot dogs. Then we even went to a couple of neighbor houses. Carter liked giving out candy to our trick or treate's.

Spooktacular at the Zoo

On our way to Spooktacular, Carter was so good to ride with his costume on.
Feeding the goat.
He was excited! He really liked spooktacular.
Tried to get a family picture, but Carter wasn't too excited.
Yay, finally Tigger got to run around at the end of it.

Carter's first spooktacular was fun. He was not too thrilled about the candy, but did like the petting zoo and watching some of the animals. It was kind of cool, but not too bad for late October in Missouri. We went Friday, Oct 29th, to kick off our Halloween weekend.

Some Mid to Late Oct Pics

In his high chair ready to eat!
Showing us his dancing moves!!! He is a great dancer...it is so fun to watch him.
Look at all that hair!!
I was trying to get a picture of his Halloween pjs, but he did not want to cooperate.
Here is the only one I really got. It is hard when they start moving...they don't stop!

Rutledge-Wilson Farm- Oct 9th

Carter looking for the ponies.
He found the pumpkin he liked.
Tried to get a family pic, but Carter wasn't cooperating.
Sitting on a hay bale.
He doesn't even need his stroller!

We had family pictures with Clay family and then that afternoon we went to the Rutledge-Wilson Farm. Carter liked all the animals and the pumpkins. It was a really warm day in October!

Some fun Oct Pictures-14 months old

Mom, get that camera away from me!! I do not want another picture taken!!
Look at that grumpy face! One of his newest expressions...cracks me up every time I see it.
Had his first ride on a horse at cousin Jeremiah's 2nd birthday. He wasn't too sure about it, but did really well.
I was trying to get him to smile at the camera. Mom looks a little silly, but what a cute picture of Carter!
This picture just made me laugh! We were going to church at Jefferson Ave that Sunday morning. Carter just looked so adorable in his sweater vest I had to take pictures.
