A Little Bit of Everything...

At the zoo...

Mommy and Carter

I hate when Andrew does this...I'm always yelling...Put him down! Carter loves it...

Everyone smile!

So early in the morning...

At the game...don't mind me, it had been raining ALL day.

Such a handsome man...

I know you can't see Carter much but it cracks me up...little man in a big tub!

My favorite...just beautiful.

Hello Everyone.

Sorry we haven't updated lately...we have been super busy. On Labor Day we went to the zoo which was so much fun! I'll spare you any animal pictures although I am tempted! We went basically just to get out of the house and it was so much fun! Then this past weekend was another visit with the family in Fredericktown. I know we go a lot...but it helps my mom get through her chemo treatments a little better I think. She is in such a better mood when we are around. A couple more and she is done...at least with chemo. She is scheduled for surgery in November and then six weeks of radiation everyday will follow that. She is hanging in there but keep her in your prayers.

Our callings at church have been keeping us super busy which is so much fun. Our ward is really small and a little different sometimes but we love it!

Andrew and I got an evening out! When we were in town this past weekend we recruited babysitters and headed to a Cardinals game! We played the Florida Marlins lost but it was still SO much fun. I love the new stadium! We got to meet up with some family before the game in St. Charles for dinner and then had a night on the town. I think I called home ten times but Carter made it without us...kinda sad :( He actually was living the life. My mom couldn't watch him by herself because she had just had a chemo treatment two days before SO I had mentioned to a few family members that they needed to come down an be assistants! Lucky for us when we walked out the door at 2:00 there was Carter + Mom + 12 extra helper family members! Don't worry...he is not spoiled. :)

Oh, also on Sunday Andrew's dad came down from St. Charles and spent the day with us. My family is a little big and a little crazy but he hung in there! It was great to see him!

Nothing else is new...Andrew is still waiting, waiting, waiting but they are keeping him busy at work in the meantime. He just finished up two more classes and did really great! He starts another in about a week. I have started writing in my downtime for an author in Little Rock. It has been really great to "use" my brain and my degree again! :)

We have a lot of video (some of my family bought us a camera for our shower) of Carter but I'm not sure how to upload it onto our computer...my goal is to figure it out tomorrow! Carter is still growing like crazy and is so much fun. He really is recognizing Andrew and I. Also, all of a sudden he is a mover! We can put him on the floor on a blanket in the living room and ten minutes later he faced the other way on the other side of the blanket! So crazy. I can't believe it's been three months and I can't believe he is so big! He does great sleeping through the night...he actually slept for ten hours the other night! He is all smiles and grins ALL the time. Enjoy the pictures!
