Where has the time gone? It is so hard for us to imagine our lives before Carter entered…nor do we want to. We love watching all the new things he can do and all that catches his eye. Below is a little sample of what highlights our day.
Carter is the sunshine in our day as we wake him in the morning! He is always full of smiles and immediately snuggles into us when we pick him up to start the day. He will sleep in until 9am if allowed, but is a happy boy if a day starts as early as 6:30 a.m.
He loves to tell us everything he has on his mind, let me give you a sample…”blah, blah, blah, ba,ba, da, da, mama”. Sometimes loudly, as being loud can be funny! He loves to be tickled!
Carter loves music, sing to him or play music for him, it doesn’t matter. He is working on his dance moves everyday with Mommy. Even Daddy has been joining in the fun and teaching him the “ride the horsey” move!
Bananas are a favorite and a staple for Carter. He loves his varieties of cereals, yet he is quick to tell us if he doesn’t like the food just introduced to him. He has taken slowly to his vegetables, except peas which were a huge hit from day one. Green beans and sweet potatoes are now on the “good” list, carrots on the other hand have not moved up the ladder from day one. Several gagging reflexes with his imitation of a trumpet player will follow to eliminate any carrots that may remain in his mouth.
The best is his huge smile and the slathering of kisses that are delivered upon picking him up from daycare! Kisses that start by him grabbing each side of your face to pull you in close followed by a big open mouth that lands on you with some forcefulness that tells you just how happy he is to see you.
The next six months are sure to hold more wonderful things and adventures! We love you Carter!!!
