Learning Something New Everyday

Carter enjoyed sitting in his Bumbo and playing with his toys this afternoon. He's figured out how to make the music play, and he looks like he's concentrating very hard!

He's been holding his head up pretty good lately, too. He starts to get mad pretty quick though. Take a look.

Carter's FIRST Word Is.....

MAMA!!! Yes, it's true. Watch this!

And if once wasn't enough... here is another. He was really enjoying sitting in his Bumbo before I turned the camera on, then he got a little tired of holding his head. And who does he cry for? MAMA! What an advanced child we have. Needless to say, Eric is fairly certain that Carter was not saying "Mama." You be the judge. =)

Fighting Sleep

Why do babies do this? Carter fights it so bad when he's tired. He's always trying to keep his eyes open, smiles, and moves his mouth all funny.

Mommy's Night Out

So my friend Emily is getting married next weekend, and this past weekend was her bachelorette party. This was really the first time I left Carter behind to go "party." We met at the Hilton in Southlake, at dinner at The Cheesecake Factory, then went out on the town in a Hummer Limo. I was good - I only had 2 drinks, because I had a loooong drive home. And Daddy took good care of the little man while I was away. It was so much fun... here are a few of my favorite pics from the night.

Happy Father's Day, Daddy!!

Eric had a good first Father's Day today....
We spent the morning at home, then went to the mall to pick out a new watch for our Daddy. Then we met up with family at Cantina Laredo for dinner. Dinner was good, gifts were great. Little Carter did pitch a GIGANTIC hissy fit at the restaurant, though. He was so loud... everyone was staring. Poor baby, he was just SO tired. Here are a few cute pictures from the day.

Carter's 2 Month Check-Up

We took Carter this morning for his 2 month check up. This little booger has grown! He is now 10 lbs, 6 ounces, and 23 1/2 inches long. He's in the 25th percentile for weight, and the 90th percentile for his length. He has gained 2 lbs, 12 oz and 1 3/4 inches since his 1 month check up! WOW!

Here is my little man at 2 months!

He sure does look like his Daddy - except for those beautiful baby blues, of course!

Two Years Ago Today...

Eric and I are celebrating our 2 year anniversary today! I can't believe how fast it's gone by. Two years ago today was a wonderful, perfect day, and I'm so grateful for every day since. Here's to many more... love you Eric!!
