Her Own Balancing Act

More Good Times!

Oh, how I love babies that can actually do things!  Carson is becoming more fun every day!  Despite this last week, where he's had a HORRIBLE cold, he's turning into a mostly happy kid!  (I say mostly because he's also starting to figure out when we leave him alone, and he's not a fan.)

Carson loves to jump.  Grandpa has been very willing to bounce him in his lap, on occasion, but, Carson's needs for bouncing just weren't being met.  Enter Craigslist.  I found a practically brand new bouncer (the lady even steam cleaned it for me!) for a fraction of the cost, and, it was the closest one to our house!  Super bonus!  

Tonight, we ate pancakes for dinner.  It's been one of those days.  Little by little, I've been putting food on Carson's tray at mealtime.  Until tonight, crackers ended up mostly on the floor.  While there was still quite a bit of pancake destined to meet its fate due to the law of gravity, a greater portion actually made it into this little guy's stomach.  I don't know if it was the stickiness of the pancakes (he usually just crumbles bread) that helped, or their delectable taste, but he gobbled them up!  Yum!

O Happy Day!!

Carson reached a VERY IMPORTANT milestone about 2 weeks ago!  Quite possibly my favorite baby milestone.  Here's proof that I no longer need to lug 19+ lb. Carson, strapped into his 10 lb. carseat, into the store!

Way to go, Little Buddy!

Now, if only Sadie would walk so I could have the cart space back...
