Carson's Birthday

During the day Jenny and I took the kids to Chuck E. Cheese. Jeremiah came and met us on his lunch break. We all had a great time, especially Jenny. She probably played the most games of anyone and was attempting to master them. She was so funny. Then Jenny's family came over and we had Carson's favorite dinner...macaroni and cheese. Yummy:) After that we did presents and cake and ice cream. The night would not be complete without a dance party to Carson's favorite song....Maroon 5's Makes Me Wonder. All the kids had a great time dancing and I got a cute video. We had a great day.

Tubes

Carson had tubes put in his ears on Tuesday. He did pretty well. They could not get him to wear the hospital gown or the little socks. So he just wore his diaper and shirt. These are a couple of pictures of him waiting to go back into surgery. He was having a great time. The post surgery wasn't so pretty. When they walked in the room I said,"Hey buddy, come see mommy." I put my hands out and he came to me and laid his head on my shoulder. Then two seconds later he sits up and smacks me across the face! Hard. It was probably the hardest that I have ever been slapped.(OK I don't get slapped often..but it hurt!) Then I passed him off to Jeremiah. Had it been any other day...well we will just leave it at that. Actually if it had been any other day I probably wouldn't have been slapped. It was almost like he was angry with me. Looking back it is too funny!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CARSON!!

Today was Carson's 2nd birthday. It is crazy how much time flies. He has brought so much joy to Jeremiah and me. We love him so much and are so blessed to have him as part of our family. Happy birthday Carson....we love you!

Random Pictures

These are a few random pictures that I haven't yet posted. I have had them on my camera for awhile and thought I would just post them all at once. Some of them are from our reunion with my brothers and sisters.

Jeremy gave all the kids a bath. He rocks!

Riggs, Jackson, Carson

This is Jeremy and Jill's little baby Crew. He is so cute.(and huge!)

Carson and Riggs..two peas in a pod..watching Little Eisteins.

Landon fell asleep on the way home from the park..I thought he looked so sweet!

This is Jeremiah and Carson in the hot tub. Jeremiah is such a smarty pants...that is what I get for telling him to smile.:)

These are a couple of pictures that I took when I was watching Jenny's kids one night. They wanted to watch Mickey Mouse Campout and sit in the tent. It was pretty cute.


Jeremiah and Landon

Jenny and I went to Logan last weekend and stayed with our cousin JaNea. It was a lot of fun. Jeremiah and Phil.. you are the best. It was a great night away. Thanks again.

Jenny went to get her hair done today so I am watching Bodie and Carlee. Jenny is trying to potty train Carlee. She peed in her underwear and all over what she was wearing. I found some old pjs of Carson's that I haven't yet boxed up. I tried to put just the bottoms on her, but she wanted the whole outfit. She is too funny!

Carson

So I don't know if is the terrible twos or the fact that Carson can't talk..but he gets so angry so fast!! If I am doing something he doesn't want me to do such as sing a long with his shows or take pictures of him, he gets really mad. The other morning he was eating oatmeal, by himself of course,and had made a huge mess. I thought it was cute so I tried to take a picture. He was not having it. I had to show him the picture I took so he understood what I was doing. The next picture is him realizing that he was getting his picture taken, as you can see he was more than willing to cooperate. Go figure.

Goodbye

My dear friends the Mancuso's are moving away. I know that I left Idaho Falls first but I am really sad I won't get to see them when I go back. They are moving to Texas so I probably won't see them until my kids are old enough for me not to go nuts taking them on the trip. Maybe I will never make it.:) Laura has been such a good friend to me and I am sad to see her go. It is a great opportunity for them and they will be closer to all of their family. Good luck Mancuso's...we love you!!!

Same Old..

I am sorry for all the big brother posts. We just really haven't gone and done anything lately so this is just us hanging around the house. I love watching the way Landon loves Carson. He will sit is his swing and watch Carson run all over the house and just smile at Carson. Sometimes when I am making dinner and Landon starts to get fussy I just tell Carson to go play with Landon and it funny to hear Landon get quiet. Carson just has to stand by him and he will quit crying..not always but most of the time. Carson has started playing really well by himself. He can stay entertained for hours. It has been nice that he can be content without someone playing with him. (And no that is not him whinning it is him saying "Oh no!" )
