My little Oriole fan on opening day.

So I was informed by Dan that Carson should put on his Oriole attire today to support our boys on opening day even though they will be the last place team in baseball this year. Sigh.

Here's the little man wearing it proudly!

Bunny ears are dumb (according to Carson).

I searched high and low for "blue" bunny ears to put on Carson for an Easter photo opportunity. I mean, as any mom knows...every holiday is a photo opp and you can find some gimic to make your child wear!

I was so excited to come home and try them on him. I had no idea he would hate them so much. After all, he loves wearing my headbands (I will post a pic!) so how different would bunny ears be?!

Take 1


Take 2


Take 3 - clearly he was over it and yelling at me to stop!


Oh and here he is modeling my headband. See how much he enjoys it? Dan did not think this was cute or funny btw!

Cuteness.

So we went last week to get some new pictures taken of Carson. They were supposed to be Easter pics but he was getting over an ear infection and I was fighting a cold and he literally had nothing to wear! I am sure many of you are saying "yeah right!" but I swear he really didn't. I bought new things at BabyGap but nothing fit correctly so I just went with something he already had. I mean he's such a cutie that the clothes didn't even matter!

Stacy (Meadows Moments photography) did an amazing job as usual. She is so patient and talented. Believe it or not, we met on a wedding planning message board and both got married in Bermuda. Come to find out last week, we also went to the same college. Very small world! Check out the link above for her portfolio.

I didn't purchase rights to the digital files but here is one from Stacy's blog. Thank you Stacy.



p.s. check out Carson's lovey "Billy" in this pic. He doesn't leave home without him but that's for another post!

Quick update.

I realized I haven't updated in over a week so I wanted to post real quick. I've been so busy at work and we are preparing for our annual users conference which is next week. I will be so thrilled when it's over.

So back to the exciting stuff, I am so happy to say that Carson started taking a few unassissted "baby" steps this past weekend!!! He started with 2 than 3 than 4 on Sunday (3/2). They were of course very awkward and once he reached me he fell right into my arms. Than on Monday, I got a very excited call from Blair our nanny to let me know he took 6 down the hallway!!! Eeeeeeeee. My little man really is growing up. I wonder if he will walk before his 1st birthday....anyone want to bet?!

Also, he started getting sick with a cough and cold on Friday which progressed quickly and his sleep was interrupted all weekend long. By Sunday he wouldn't nap, would scream and cry and just want to be held by me and only me of course, and was up almost every hour throughout the night. I took him to the pedi on Monday and sure enough, he has his first ear infection. He also has a cough and cold and 3 more teeth cutting. No wonder he was a mess! We were so close to making it a whole year without any antibiotics too. So we are on day 2 of them and he is back to sleeping normal, thank God since I was so tired at work on Monday I couldn't speak or type complete sentences!

So that's the quick update on us....
