I almost forgot......

I am 40!!!! Gasp. Yep that's right, I am officially old. Sigh. I turned 40 two weeks ago and was going to post but forgot. I guess your memory really is the first to go right?!

I had a fabulous birthday and got some really nice cards, phone calls and gifts too.

Dan got me this gorgeous 'Mama' necklace made by Tali Gillette (ww.taligillette.com). I saw it on Gwyneth and had to have it. After all, I am a celebrity right?!

The reason I have been a bad blogger.

I almost forgot I had a blog, oops! We have been extremely busy these last few weeks and I am behind on everything, or so it seems. I have 2 cameras full of pictures and lots to share but I am just too tired to type.

Our big news is that we are moving! We always knew we would leave the city when we had a family but I didn't think it would be this soon. Well we found the perfect house in the perfect community and couldn't pass it up. Here it is....single family on a corner lot in a gated golf course community (just for Dan!).

It's new construction but since we didn't pick out all the upgrades or basically anything in it, we have a contractor friend of Dan's in there now doing lots of work. We are moving in mid-November and are very excited. We go up there pretty regularly to take care of things and get Carson used to his new surroundings.

Wish us luck that we made the right choice!

Saturday at the farm.

We had so much fun this weekend since the weather was just perfect. We headed to Clarks Farm after Carson's nap on Saturday and I took some pics of my boys being boys. The farm has a fairy tale theme with lots of larger than life objects to climb and see, a petting zoo, pony rides, hay rides, you name it. He is a bit young to enjoy it all but come next year, it will be perfect.

Words.

Carson is extremely vocal to say the least and now has a vocabulary of over 50 words. Dan and I are amazed at how many words he knows and says and even phrases! Hmmm maybe I can even teach him how to read like the 17 month old recently profiled on the Today show.

Anyway, we've moved on from dog and milk to words like school bus and police car and he really says them all. He even knows all his friend's names too.

I took a short video clip last night so you can hear him talk. The names are his classmates. You can tell I am extremely exhausted and can't even think of words to ask him to say. I even forgot half of his friend's names. Oops. My mind was drawing a blank. Chalk it up to a long day of work or maybe Carson is just smarter than his mommy already! :)
