I never understood why parents would say "I wish time would slow down" until I became a mom. I have been looking at some pictures and it feels like just yesterday I was holding him for the first time. I feel so blessed to have him as my son and to have a husband that works so hard so I can stay home. Here are just a few things that make me laugh that Carson does or says.
1. Almost every morning when he wakes up he says "Mommy hold you, Mommy hold me" I have corrected him so many times that if he wants me to hold him he says "mommy hold me". It melts my heart every morning.
2. He has just starting saying Love you mommy.
3. Carries his toy cars with him everywhere he goes; this includes bedtime. I have to go in after he has fallen asleep and collect 7-10 cars. If I miss a few he rolls over them during the night and wakes up screaming. I try really hard to find all 10.
4. He loves to be with me all day. It does not matter if I'm doing dishes, making the bed, or cleaning.
5. If you know Carson well enough you know he goes by Carso. I don't know how that nick name started but it has stuck. It makes me laugh when people ask him his name because he replies Carso.
I love this little person so much and wish time would slow down a little bit.

Fun Weekend
On Friday night Carson and I decided to make homemade pizza. It was a lot of fun for Carson to put the cheese and Pepperonis on; he calls them "ronis". If you know Carson, you know that he never eats. Well while we were making the pizza I looked over and discovered that a big portion of the "Ronis" were gone. In my mind I thought did Carson really eat something that was somewhat healthy for him. I kept watching him to see if it was really true. YES! my child was eating some turkey pepperoni. It didn't last long but at least he ate something.
Saturday night we went into Time Square. We visited the Toys R Us store. This store is huge! We went on the ferris wheel inside and Carson got his picture taken with the giraffe. It was so funny to see Carson's reaction when we got to the Car section. He was grabbing all of the car packages off the shelves. He finally narrowed his selection down to a toy tractor.

First snow fall.
It snowed about 6 inches last night so Carson and I decided it would be fun to play in the snow. We called the Burr's and they came with us. Carson liked being pulled on the sled with his buddy Damon.
After sledding we went over to the Burr's and had yummy hot chocolate. What a fun morning.
Notice that Carson is still holding his toy cars even while sledding. He does not go any where with out them in his hands.

Love Long Weekends
Last weekend was so nice to have Taylor around. Every morning Carso wakes up and asks if Daddy is home? Taylor is usually gone before he wakes up, so my answer is the same "no Daddy had to go to work". Carso gets so sad. This weekend was especially nice for Carson. He loved waking up in the morning and having Taylor home to play cars with.
Taylor's parents gave Carson a gift card to the science center for his birthday. We decided to use it a little early, and go on Monday. It was a lot of fun. We went to a 3-d showing of the sun; Carson wore the glasses the entire time. He kept pointing, grabbing, and saying "balls daddy". I think his favorite part of the day was blowing into the giant bubble.
Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for the fun day.

Laguna Beach!
We all went to the beach and had a lot of fun playing in the water. Carso's favorite thing to do is feed the birds. It is so funny to watch him, because once he starts feeding one bird they all start to swarm him.

Disney Land
Taylor had to go to Brazil again for two weeks so Carson and I decided to go to Disney Land. It was a really last minute trip.
The trip didn't start off well at all it started with Carson throwing up five times on the plane and having the flight staff cleaning for over an hour and then him throwing up again.
The first day at Disney land Carson had a major explosion in his diaper. I don't want anyone to dry heave reading my blog but it had gone up his back and down through his socks and in between his toes. I rate how bad the diapers are on how many wet wipes are used, the whole pack was used on this one!! Other than the first two days we had so much fun with Grandma and Grandpa Warner and the DeWitt's. Carson tells every body that his favorite ride is the tea cups. He also went on his first roller coaster and loved it. He was barely tall enough. Thanks for the good times. Carso and I are still recovering from the crazy days at the Park.
