Carter and his Peeps

Every important baby needs his own servants and I guess that'd be us, me on the left and Mason on the right, more commonly known as Mommy and Daddy...if he could talk that is. Oh the life of a baby...having someone carry your bags, fix your food, feed you whenever you want and being carried everywhere and he doesn't even pay rent!

Splish Splash

Carter was taking a bath. He still loves bath time and it's part of his nightly routine. He's starting to become more active during bath time now and even hits the water with his hands.

Carter has a new bath time buddy...er ducky that is.

Bath time is more fun with bubbles.

Tiny bubbles...

I feel all bubble-headed suddenly

It's important to always dry off after a bath...especially one where you've had bubbles. And what better way to dry off than in my frog towel.

Ever the Gracious Host

Carter loves to have visitors, so if you're in the area feel free to give us a call and stop by. He loves to play host and tell you all about his day.

Here's Carter resting today so he'd be refreshed for his company this evening.

Me and Carter

Carter Loves his Daddy Too!

Here's Daddy and Carter hanging out.

Carter's growing so fast! He takes up a lot more of his Daddy's lap than he used to.

Apparently there was something very interesting to look at on the ceiling.

Me and My Chair

This is me sitting in my chair. It's convienently located next to my changing table and near my crib. This is where I hang out at night when I'm not sleeping.

This is me living life on the edge...of my chair that is!

And this is me drooling on my chair. I thought I saw a spot that needed a drool cleaning, but I was wrong. Oh well...drool happens.

Hands...the New Food Group

Carter found his hands last week and loves to chew on them now. He's upgraded from bottles to hands these days.

Carter loves his Mommy!

Usually I'm the person behind the camera and the video camera, but every now and then I find someone else to take over camera duty so I can have some pictures of me with my little guy.

Even Big Boys Take Naps

Carter likes to nap and he naps just about anywhere and everywhere except where you want him to when you want him to. Go figure...he's just like his Daddy!

He's partial to Daddy's side of the bed

He must have been dreaming about bubbles because he's blowing them.

He loves a good shoulder to nap on whenever someone will hold him long enough.

I'm a Big Boy Now!

Carter's really starting to grow like a weed. He's already grown out of some of his 0-3 month clothes (because he's too long), his 0-6 month socks never fit and now he's sitting up like a big boy. Granted he'd probably fall over if left unattended, but doesn't he look so grown up?

Here's Carter in his "Jason" shirt. One of our bestest friends Jason is known for his collection of plaid button up shirts and this is the one he bought for Carter. He looks so grown up in his Jason shirt too...very thoughtful and serious.

Carter's Baptism

Carter was baptized on August 19, 2007, at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Murray, KY.

Here's Carter during part of the baptismal ceremony.

Play Time at the Tudor House

Carter loves play time. A lot of the toys we have he didn't like in the beginning, but now he's starting to warm up to them.

One of his favorite activities it to watch television or play on the computer with his Daddy.
Like father like son.

Same expression and same pose

Apparently Fippy thinks she needs to sniff him out too...monkey see monkey do!

Carter enjoying some time in his bouncy seat

He's starting to smile more often now

He loves hanging out in his boppy pillow on the couch with Mommy.

It's hard work hanging out in your boppy pillow on your belly!

He's still too small for his newest toy, but we had to let him try it out a bit. I think he'll like it more when his feet actually touch the ground. Then he'll be off and running.

Of course, every child has his or her moments, and at this particular moment Carter was not enjoying his bouncy seat. Isn't his pouty face too cute though? I love it when his little lower lip starts to quiver.
