Did somebody say food?

As you can see, Carter is still a baldy, but this kid loves to eat. Sometimes it's a chore to get him to drink his bottle but could eat 5 lbs of rice cereal if we would let him. He's starting to realize what happens when he sits in this chair and so he's always happy.

Hey guys, do you think that my mouth is big enough? Casey is always tempted to give him random food that we are eating but stops because he doesn't want to be up all night with Carter if he has a tummy ache.

We haven't found a food that he won't eat, but we haven't tried peas yet. He usually just has a funny face on the first bite or two. This is the funniest video of him eating that we have so far.

My body is so fun!!!

 About 3 weeks ago, Carter really started to realize that his tongue is a fun toy. He loves to stick it out in all shapes and sizes. He also loves when you stick your tongue out and make noises with it. He's a pretty silly monkey.

His new favorite toy is his feet. He tries to pull his socks off and also eat his sock. I'm happy with this new, inexpensive entertainment!

 

 

 

First Feedings

 It's finally spring!!! So we have been doing a lot of walks and hikes with Carter. Because he doesn't have much hair on his noggin, he may be wearing hats all summer.

We just started feeding him rice cereal and he loves it. He's a great eater (he's definitely a Mau), which you can see from the photo, his bib is clean and just a little on the face. We can't wait to start feeding him baby food and will post videos of that fun soon.
He loves to stick his tongue out and make noises with it. He's learning new things every day!

As carter looks up and thinks to himself, "who is that crazy looking weirdo?" or maybe, "ummmm, will you let go of me now?" or, "why is this guy smiling so much?" Carter is drooling a lot, gnawing on just about anything he can put his mouth around including a Doritos bag, which he very much enjoys playing with.

Recent Dandies

 Here's a cute one of him raising his eye brows, though you can't actually see them. He is slowly getting darker eye brows as well as more hair on his dome. Thank goodness.

 Carter celebrating St. Patty's Day with Great-Grandma Nordstrom. They were both lovin' Julie's corned beef, though carter got it much later.

 Carter's workin the gangster look and sportin a headband that I won at Crimson Nights at the U. Thank you again to Candace who babysat so we could rock that party.

Lastly, he loves to see himself in the mirror. He's givin himself a smile cuz he's thinkin, I'm lookin good. He's just like his daddy.

First of Many Anniversaries

For our first anniversary, Casey took me to The Roof restaurant. It was an amazing view and delicious food. Especially dessert-tried almost all of them (it was a buffet). Both Casey and I loved the creme brulee! After that, he took me to the same park where he originally proposed to me and asked me to be sealed to him. He was delighted when I said, yes! It was a wonderful night, with an wonderful man.

Turtle Roll Over

Well, Carter is rolling over pretty regularly now, but we really struggle to catch it on video. Here is most of the roll over which Casey caught a few days ago. Not all babies can pull that outfit! But I'd have to say that he's rockin' the turtle outfit.lol.
Casey does tons of tummy time with Carter and does some great commentary on several videos. This is only one of seven Casey special tummy time videos.
