1??? Are you kidding me??

I have come to the conclusion that I am not ready for Carter to turn one... so we will not be celebrating his first birthday until 2012.. that truly is when he is 1! I can't believe how this year has flown by.

I recently bought a new camera... and LOVE it! I am still experimenting with everything that it can do. So some are good and some are not so good... but they are still great pictures of Carter. I wanted to get some pictures up before his birthday party... cause I know I will have tons! Enjoy!

Never too early to learn... right?

I loved this picture!

The newest addition to my uncle's collection of toys... it was just delivered today! It's pretty sweet.

All smiles from this tractor lover! He was standing up in the cab and plastering himself up against the glass... This definitely made his day!

I think he will be spending a lot of time riding with daddy when he is working in the fields. Bill got the tractor with the extra seat in it... I guess his days of hanging out with mommy are over...

See ya later Uncle Bill... I'm just gonna take her for a quick spin!

Who is happier?? Dad or Carter? Hard to tell...

We got him this firetruck for his birthday. He saw it in the store and fell in love with it!

Carter and Daddy...

Carter is wearing Christian's hat. Christian, Emma, Steph and Janet were all up to visit this past week. We had a blast with them! Carter absolutely adored Christian... he snuggled up to him more than he does with me!

My son has an obsession with emptying one cupboard to put the things into another. I thought I had cleaned everything up the other day... until I opened the cupboard to get a strainer...

Caught him in the act!

An entertaining dinner

We have had a busy few weeks....

Carter is now walking/running, which is consuming all of my time. He is continually up and down the steps (with my assistance), emptying every cupboard he can get his hands on, and playing in the toilet (not to my liking). He is also cutting his molars (not a fun time, might I add)... so that allows no time for blogging...

Kenny ate dinner at our house tonight... and we definitely had an entertaining dinner. Carter has turned into the biggest hamball. He is constantly goofing and making us laugh. Enjoy this tidbit of our entertainment... It's not the best quality cause I had to record it on my camera from my phone... but I think you will get the just of it.

I will be posting more pictures... when I get time. ugh.

Funny story

So tonight as Jason and I were giving Carter a bath...

He was standing along the edge of the tub and we began to hear the sound of rushing water... and much to our surprise he was peeing in the tub (not unusual for a child of that age - or any age for that matter). As he finished peeing... he left out the largest sigh of relief. I mean a HUGE sigh of relief and then smiled at us and began laughing. Jason and I just looked at one another and cracked up!

He is an absolute monkey!

don't be afraid to leave a little love... comment love that is! Plus... I like to know who's checkin out the pictures and whatnot. (I'm with you Jess... I love reading comments!)

Horray for the Steelers!!!

We went to John and Sarah's for the Superbowl... and had a blast! It was such a fun time. Carter was an absolute angel and I think he is developing a love for football!

This is Apache... John and Sarah's dog. Apache and Carter played all night long... they are the best of friends!!!

Carter was reaching for Apache... as you can tell Apache was trying to get away... hence the whiskers in the picture. They were too cute together!

We discovered that Carter does not like the taste or radishes... but still insisted on putting his teeth marks on every radish on the dish. Hilarious!

Carter and Daddy watching the Steelers kick some Cardinal butt!!!

Did you see that play????

This ribbon tastes funny.... but soooo much fun to chew!

GO STEELERS!!!!

Carter and Uncle John... John soooo looks ready for a kid of his own! (wink wink)

I don't think any of the boys moved from their spots all night...

From Left: John, Adam, Jason, Chris and Shane

My little man is beginning to appreciate great things when he sees them... He loves my Coach wristlet. A boy after my own heart!!!

Mickey! I love this picture of him!

Kenzie!!

Mr. Curious... he has to sniff absolutely everything!

Just some pics of Carter being a goofball... as usual!

He is now standing on his own and taking a few steps. I think he will definitely be running laps around me by his 1st birthday... only a few more weeks to go!!! AHHHHH!!!

Lovin my spaghetti!

We tried spaghetti this week... and LOVED it!!!!

An absolute mess! We definitely went straight to the tub after this meal...

Who me? I'm messy?

Spaghetti and applesauce... not a good combination!

The Superbowl is tonight! GO STEELERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll get some pictures of him in his jersey....
