This is Mommy and I. She was trying to take my pacifier out so I would smile for the picture...but I would rather have my pacifier then smile so maybe next time.



Look at how big I am getting. Can you believe it? I love my swing. Mommy sets me in it and will get it swining really fast. Believe it or not the faster the swing goes the faster I fall alseep. Last week I was really tired and didn't want to nap so mommy poped me in it and I was out in a flash.




Daddy and I love to play. Daddy is really funny. In this picture Daddy was playing "Sea Saw" and rocking back and forth on the couch. I was rolling laughing but everytime mom takes out the camera I have to make my "deer in headlights" signature pose. Ms. Audra saw this picture on line and was impressed at how well I hold up my head. She should see me during tummy time...now that's impressive.



Daddy was reading me the 1-2-3 PB Bear book that Ryan Sapp gave me. The 1-2-3 book was his when he was little. Daddy layed on my activity mat to read to me. I LOVED IT. All the colors and numbers were really neat.

This is Daddy and Mommy. They are the best parents a guy could ask for. Mommy and Daddy tell me every day how wonderful I am.

Since Carter is almost 4 months old I think I will tell you about the things he's accomplished in the past month.


~ He can hold his head up steadily. About 5 min at a time before changing positions.

~ He can bear his weight on his legs. Loves his exursaucer.

~ Coos when you talk to him. "Answers" questions and starts "conversations."

~ He has started to squeal and coo very loud when conversations are going on around him, he likes to be the center of attention.

~ Can grasp at things you put in front of him.

~ He turns toward all new sounds, He will look for Randall when he comes home and hears his voice.

~ On his play mat he can go from tummy, to back, to side with ease.

~ He will let you know his disapotiment if you don't play w/ him.

~ He loves being sung to and listening to songs in the car while Mommy is singing. (He really likes the Beatles)

~ He is super vocal, & voices his opinion about absolutely everything.

~ He loves children & other babies. We get out at least twice a week and interact with other children and he's a big HAM to other kids...and adults.

~ He is in some 0-3 month clothing but they are getting small fast. He is now in size 2 diapers.

~ He watches Pinky (the cat) walk around his play mat and attempts to "talk" to pinky.

~ He's weighing about 14 lbs now and growing like a weed.

~ He follows my finger as I point to pictures in books we read. He studies all things put in front of him.

~ When he's fussy at the end of the day reading Goodnight Moon almost always changes his mood for the better.

That is all for now.

He's amazing. He's a Blessing. He's our Forever Baby!
