First Haircut

Carson got his first haircut yesterday. He was such a good boy! He sat in the race car and watched himself steer in the mirror. I didn't realize how much hair he had until she started cutting it. His new haircut it so cute!

Here are his before and after shots.





The Big Box

Shane's new furniture came in a big box that Tommy turned into a fort for Carson. Carson and Hannah had a great time playing in it on Thursday. Hannah thought it was fun that she could get inside it and then move it. Carson just liked following Hannah.

I have not been doing a very good job of updating my blog! Carson loves to push the buttons on the keyboard so I only get on the computer when he is sleeping or playing with Daddy. And lately when he is napping, I have been napping! I forgot how tried the third trimester makes me.

I am amazed at how quickly Carson went from taking a couple of steps to walking everywhere. He loves to walk now. He still hasn't figured out how to stand up without pulling up on something. He usually walks until he loses he balance and falls then he crawls to the closest thing he can pull up on. I am so glad he is walking before Shane gets here!

At my last doctors appointment, we scheduled my c-section for February 4. Unless Shane decides to arrive early, he will be born on the 4th. I can't believe how fast this pregnancy has gone! I am really excited for him to get here. It is going to be so much fun watching Carson and him together.

Carson turned 11 months old on Saturday and still has no teeth! Last night I made pasta with meatballs and we decided to see if Carson would eat it. He really liked the pasta with sauce on it. He is such a messy eater that we decided to take his shirt off. He got the sauce all over himself!





Carson loves to point at things he wants. He is pointing at the camera because he loves to look at the pictures I have taken. He really likes to get Mommy or Daddy to pick him up then point at where he wants to go.

Walking!

Carson is finally walking! He took his first steps at Courtney's house a couple weeks ago and then would not walk any more. Tommy and I decided he must have been showing off for Hannah. He finally decided to walk again on Wednesday. Here is a video of him walking on Wednesday. Since then, he tries to walk every where. It is amazing how fast he learned!

First Halloween

Carson's first Halloween was so much fun! He looked so cute in his Superman costume.



Thursday, he went to visit Gigi and Pops to show off his costume and celebrate Mommy and Daddy's birthdays.





On Halloween, he went to the trunk or treat at Nanny's church.




He walked around like a big boy.

Bath Time!


Carson loves bath time! He would play in the tub all night if we would let him. He loves to hit the water so it splashes everywhere.

The State Fair

Tommy took Tuesday off so we could go to the fair. Carson had a great time. He loved watching all the people. This is his first picture with Big Tex.



It started raining as we were passing the Science Place so we decided to go in and take a look. They have all kinds of fun exhibits and a huge educational play area downstairs. Carson liked the turtle.

You can't go to the fair without checking out the animals. Carson gets so excited when animals are around, especially when he gets to touch them. He liked the goat's horns.

Runny Nose.....

This is what happens to your hair when you decide to wipe your nose on the blanket sitting next to you instead of waiting for your mommy to get a tissue. He thought it was so funny!
