Carson's Best Pal

Enjoying the weather

Carson and I spent all morning outside. We took the dogs for a walk and then went out in the backyard and played a bit. I closed off the deck and let Carson play with his car that Grandma and Grandpa got him. He loves it. He gets in and out and in and out. He has learned to scoot himself backward in it. I put a video on of Carson saying "ball". He's napping now, but I bet we've got more outside time ahead of us when he wakes up.

Doggy Detail

Carson has seen what daddy does with this tool, now he is going to do it too. I think Syd prefers Jamie or me brushing her. She's just tolerating Carson. He really thought he was doing something good though.

My baby is growing up on me. Carson no longer wants me feeding him with a spoon. He's been trying to get this through my head for a few weeks now, and I guess there is no turning back. Although he is messy he can feed himself with a spoon now. He gets very annoyed if I take it away from him to help him reposition or wipe his hands off because the yogurt he was eating was sliding down his spoon at times and getting all over him. Oh, and he can say lots of words now too. I heard him say ball for the first time at daycare 9/4. He says go, Mom, Da, dog (not too consistently though still sometimes calls them "ga", bye, and ball. I'm trying to teach him to say book when he harasses us morning, noon, and night to read to him. He currently just hands the book out and grunts.
