Christmas Tree

Carter loves the lights, and the balls (ornaments) on the tree. He doesn't understand why he cant play with the balls (ornaments) on the tree. He does do a good job about not taking them off the tree.

Carter 5 months

Carter is now 5 months old, boy does time fly by. I am loving every minute we spend together, such a sweet little boy. He hardly cries or throws a fit about anything. He even wakes up happy with a smile on his face. He doesn't give a fuss when going to bed either. I am truly a blessed momma. I usually only know he is awake because I hear him moving or talking. He started rolling over from back to belly, sCaRy this is his new way to sleep. I think I roll him back to his back several times a night before I give up and go to bed. He stared rolling belly to back a long time ago. So, now when he is on the floor he just keeps rolling into things. He is trying to sit up like a big boy with no help, but is not there yet. He already has a favorite toy, which is a crinkly elephant. Kirsten can usually get the biggest smile from him, other than mommy who makes him laugh. He did even start smiling at Nana, which he would cry if she even looked at Carter. He loves to eat and his a very healthy eater. He is up to over 16 lbs and yes I feel it carrying him around. I haven't yet taken his 5 month pic, when I do I will try and post it. I am hoping to take it on Saturday.

52 Fridays

So, this week for me is....FASHION!!! Okay, Seriously I am the last person you want to go to for fashion advise. Unless sweets or jeans, t-shirt and a pair of flip flops is your style then I am your girl. If that is your style hate to tell you but I don't think we (yes WE) are considered fashionable. In any case, little girls love to dress up and do silly things. Plus I was very busy and couldn't take a new photo ;) So, this is what I will post for fashion. I did make the tutu, not that hard to make.



If you don't know what the 52 on Fridays thing is about.... I saw on a photography blog that I like to look at. 18 photographers got together and decided to do different themes all year long on Friday. Since I am not one of them my theme will be a week behind, but it gives me something to post on my blog. I also thought it would be fun just to do. You can view the photography blogs they are listed on my sidebar on the left, you just have to scroll down. For all of those that still post on their blogs you could join me......

52 Fridays

So, this week for me on 52 on Fridays the theme is innocence. When I think of innocence I think of sweet little babies that are perfect and fresh from God.

Carter 4 months

The picture was taken closer to 4 months, but he just went to the doctor for his 4 month check up today. The snow made the doctor cancel his original appointment. He weighs 15.62 lbs and is 25 1/4 inches long. He is trying to roll over from back to belly, but hasn't made it yet. He laughs and smiles all the time. Carter got his first hair cut, buzz cut. Why? I got tired of doing an old man comb over. He has lost most of his hair that he was born with. His brothers and sisters are still his biggest fans. I can't think of anything else new he has been up to in the last month.

52 Fridays

I know I haven't been doing the 52 on Friday posts like I said I would. But last week they did Love as the theme. So, this week this is what I did for my love.

Wordless Wednesday

52 Fridays

I saw this on my favorite photography blog, 18 great photographers are doing what they call fifty-two on Fridays. Every Friday for the year they are going to post a picture and every Friday has a different theme. I thought I would do the theme the next week. Why? Here lately I have been wanting to take pictures and post something different but I am soooo busy. I thought this would be something fun to do and it will give me a post every Friday. I will be behind a week, because I am just doing it to do something with my camera. Which lately I think seems to gather more dust then actually taking pictures. I am behind like three weeks so I decided to post 3 pictures from the previous weeks and next week I will do Joy. If you look on my sidebar you can find the photography blog where I got it from. I have all 18 photography blogs in my sidebar link. The pictures are ten times better.

Week #3 Theme:Joy


Week #2 Theme: black and white


Week #1 Theme: Self Portrait

Carter is 3 months

Time sure does fly when you have a little baby. Our little man is getting to be a chunky baby, chunky feet and chunky hands too cute. He weighs 13lbs 2oz and is 23 1/2 inches long. He is a very happy baby, always smiling. He pretty much sleeps all night from around 930 to around 6 in the morning. Carter loves his play gym and he is even starting to reach for the toys and he will grab a hold of them. He loves to talk and he will just smile for you.
