Something to smile about

Carson is two months old - who-hoo! I cannot believe how fast the time is going by. I feel like my tiny brand new baby boy is gone and has been replaced by a big boy with an adorable smile and crazy hair! He gets cuter and cuter everyday.



Kenzie continues to be an amazing, sweet, caring, loving big sister. I never expected all of that from her and she surprises me everyday with how much of mommy's helper she is. The moment that melted my heart last week happened one night while tanner was at tennis. As usual, the bath and bed time routine was quite the hassle with only one mommy and two little ones. Carson had reached his max of patience while I was finishing getting Kenzie dressed for bed. He was in the master bath in his bouncy seat crying and Kenzie and I were in her room. She ran down to see about him and got there a good minute before me (I am sure I was cleaning up some mess some where). Things got awfully quiet in the bathroom - neither kid making any noise. As I rounded the corner, I was geared up to yell at Kenzie for doing something wrong (assuming the worst based on the lack of noise), but to my surprise, I found her kneeling on the bathroom floor slowly bouncing the bouncy seat to settle Carson down just like a little mommy. She had the sweetest look on her face like she knew she had helped make Carson happy. I was so proud and shed a few tears over the moment.

This is a more G rated version than the one in NYC, but eye catching none the less.

We did it and we survived

We took the plunge and decided to take our first car trip to Savannah with both kids. Everything went great - we only had to stop one time between both car trips! And it just so happened there was a Kroger at the exit we stopped at, so Tanner fed Carson sitting at the front of the store and Kenzie and I did the grocery shopping. Two things done at once! We had a wonderful time with the fam (as always) and Carson enjoyed getting to go to Mimi and Granddad's house for the first time. Here are some pics from the weekend:

Please stop back by often to see what is going on in our lives. I promise I won't let another year go by without blogging! I want this to be a place where all our family and friends can keep up with our lives and see our family grow.

The next few posts are going to be a blast of pictures to get everyone up to date with how our family has grown and how we have all adjusted so far in 2011. Enjoy!

About 6 weeks in, our little guy really started to see everything around him. Here he is discovering his bumble bees on his swing for the first time.
