A lot of FIRSTS.....

It's been a while since I posted last. I decided to skip Christmas all together b/c I couldn't decide between the 236 pictures which to post. So, onto the new year! Carson has had a lot of firsts lately and we'll start with a hair cut. He wasn't so sure at first but ended up with a fine looking hair-do:

Michael has started the "I want to give Ba-Carson a shoulder ride!". Carson LOVES it and laughs the whole time. It's so fun to watch them play together:

It's official. Carson started walking. Another first.

Such a cute baby:

Ahhhh, but that's more like it. :)

We'll digress to a few pics of Michael. He's been doing a lot of pretending lately, really letting that imagination run wild. Here he is pretending to be the Ping Pong Bandit (for any Backyardigan's fans out there)

Love this kid:
Carson really loves the new CARS tent Grandmommy & Grand-daddy got them for Christmas. He gets in the tent and just sits back there, talking to himself and laughing at....well, I have no idea what he's always laughing about.

Michael loves to make popcorn. It's his favorite snack.

Ryan and the boys....headed to the store so I could make cakes for Carson's first birthday party.

We had a Cowboy's Football watching party / Carson's first birthday. The game didn't turn out so well, but the party sure was a hit. I made that sign! The stars below said CARSON. I know. I had a creative moment.

Before the party started, everytime I came around the corner, Michael was stealing a Cheeto! We started calling him the Cheeto Bandit.

So, Carson didn't love the party hat, and kept wanting to touch the candle, but he did enjoy us singing Happy Birthday to him. Michael sang the loudest out of 12 people. Loud.

He dug right in - but carefully. His FIRST piece of cake.

"I'll take THAT piece right there."

After a while - he was done.
He got his own push toy from Grammie and Grandpa and he loves it.

Another first at the party - our neighbor lost her FIRST tooth! So lots of firsts lately. Walking, a haircut, a first birthday party and so many more. Every day with Carson is such a joy - he really is such a happy baby. I can hardly believe he'll be one tomorrow. Happy birthday my little man.
