Update

What's new? Well, Connor just turned a whopping four years old!! We had a ridiculous 3 day celebration and the kid got more then most kids get in their lifetime, but it was a great weekend! He had his first "friends" birthday party. We had it at Kingswood park...the kids did gymnastics for an hour, followed by pizza, cake and presents. He had a blast. The next day, we had a "family" birthday party. All the grandparents came, along with Uncle Chris, Connor's cousins Mickey and Thomas and Chrystal's mom Val. It was really nice. I'll have to post a picture later since I was too busy running around and didn't take any pictures myself.

Carter....Carter is almost 7 months now. He's such a funny little kid. He has such a comedic personality already. He laughs at anyone and everyone and is just so easy going. Thank god, because we all know there would be no time for a fussy baby with Connor in the picture! The boys fit together like a perfect little puzzle...we all do...it's as though we've molded into what is needed to be a happy, functional family unit.

Carter is starting to explore his little world a little bit more. He isn't a crawler yet. He gets really frustrated on his belly. I honestly think he's going to go straight from sitting to walking and skip the crawling altogether. In fact, for the first time today, while standing up, he let go of his support and just stood there for a split second. Of course, he threw a big old smile on his face out of sheer proudness for himself. He is eating baby food very well. He loves everything. Except he seems to find blueberries a little sour. We haven't really attempted any solid finger foods except an arrowroot....which he full out choked on, followed by two incidents of projectile vomit. No more finger foods for a bit...Tv...he LOVES tv. Especially 4 squares. He's obsessed with sucking on apples. Give that baby an apple and good luck getting it back without a screaming match! He's sleeping wonderfully through the night, usually 6:30 to 6:30. However, the last few nights, he's been waking at 5:30...boooo! Not a great napper, but he seems to be improving....


Gotta run...crying baby and heading to the gym soon.

Life is wonderful....
