Carter 3 months old

Carter just turned 3 months old today. Wow how time flies by. He is sleeping pretty good 7-8 hours at night. He is just so happy and easy going. The boys especially Carson love to hold him. They are always trying to get him to talk. Carson likes to stick the pacifier in his mouth, and Carter really doesn't like that.


Boys all at the same age


These are all pictures taken at the exact same age (almost 3 months) and wearing the same outfit. A pretty good comparison of how these 3 boys look different. I think you can tell the progression of the oldest child to the youngest based on how they hold their head up. Carter doesn't get put on the ground as much as the other two because Carson will lay on him and likes to try to hold him when he is on the ground.

Fall Festivities

We had a lot of fun in November getting out and enjoying the fall cool air. Lots of walks, playing at the park, and different fall events. We even went to the Gilbert Days Parade and then Colby's Fall Festival.
Carson just loves the camera. He is so silly.
Carter is usually so happy!

The boys so happy to be around
 
 The video above is of Carter. The boys are trying to get him to talk and smile. They are always playing with him and love to talk to him.

Dad with Carson and Carter. Lately Carson just wants to hold Carter. He will just put his arm around Carter and just holds onto him. If you try to take Carter back he wants to hold him again.
Carson loves to walk around in our shoes. He constantly takes them out of my closet and wears them around.
Carter almost 3 months. He will smile at anyone who looks at him

Despite the looks, the boys had a great time at the Gilbert Days Parade. Every time a band would come by Carson would say "dance" and then would dance in his stroller. Colby was just excited for all the candy and toys.

Carter has started to use his feet to grab onto things. He loves to sit in this swing and look at the mirror.

Kaleigh's 1st Birthday

Happy 1st Birthday to Kaleigh. We had a great time helping Kaleigh celebrate her 1st birthday. It was all about pink here. She sure didn't care to touch her cake, but liked having mom help her open her presents.

This video is of Carson putting his costume on for the first time. He thought it was the funniest thing

Colby's 6th Birthday

Happy 6th Birthday Colby! Where has the time gone. We had a great day celebrating his birthday. We made a fish bowl cake for his birthday since he was getting a fish tank and a fish for his special day. Then we went out to eat.

Uncle Skippy stopped by too. We sang to him too after we had already eaten part of the cake. His birthday is 2 days after Colby's birthday.
