Guess what one is broken...



This is what happens when I chase Rob. I stub my toe on the leg of Carson's swing. Ouch!

Carson


I can't believe that my baby is already 3 months old!! It makes me sad how fast time goes by and how fast he is growing. Here are some of his latest....

He loves chewing on his fists and fingers
He is 17 pounds and wearing 6-9 month clothes
He HATES his swing here but loves the one and my moms...they're exactly the same
He is sooo chatty. I think he likes to hear his own voice
He only takes a few short naps during the day but he is a good sleeper at night
He loves when I sing in silly voices and really likes when I sing Katy Perry "Firework"
He has stinky feet
He LOVES getting a bath
He has only had 1 blow out
He rarely gets fussy
He has started to grab for things! I'll hold his binky in front of him and he will reach out and grab it!!
He likes to hold my hair and touch my face
He LOVES Rob. Every time he sees him he gets a huge grin
He has a fake cry and it is really funny and cute
He also fake coughs
He is super tooty! That kid has no shame
He cries every time we sing a hymn in church
He is starting to only want to be held by me

Carson is such a joy! I LOVE every minute I get to spend with him. I am so grateful that I get to be a stay at home mom. I am loving the stage he is in now. It is so fun to watch him learn and watch him develop a personality! I LOVE BEING A MOM!!

Wow my blog is REALLY dusty!! Anyway, I was thinking about my Rob today and wanted to post all about him.
I love him so much. I love that I met him when he was a missionary. When we tell people that they kind of raise their eyebrows and look skeptical but we both know that it was nothing wrong or inappropriate and we both know that it was just the right situation for us. I love that the moment I saw him I know without a doubt that we were to be together forever. I love that when I prayed about it my answer came immediately. I love how respectful he is. I love how hard he works for our family. I love his energy and enthusiasm for life. He is so happy and a joy to everyone around him. I love how devoted he is to me and Carson.
We got married very young. That being said, we have had some ups and downs. There have been very difficult times but we have come out of those stronger and more in love then ever. I know that we will have more hard times but we will face those together. United as one.
He is an incredible father. He is so involved and helpful. Carson adores him. Rob loves spending time with him. He is always willing to change him, feed him, bathe him, hang out with him so I can nap and so much more.
Rob, you are my soul mate, my other half. I need you. Forever. You amaze me. Thank you for choosing me. Thank you for taking me to the temple. Thank you for giving me a beautiful baby boy. You're working today, tomorrow and Sunday and I miss you. Working 36 hours in 3 days is a lot! I can't wait for next week when you only work 2 days! I love love love you. Forever.
