One

It was one year ago on May 2nd that Carson had entered into our family. Carson from the start has been a go getter to say the least. He has to be involved in everything that you are doing. Carson was kind of a fussy baby but only because he had to be up and seeing what you were doing. There had been many times when Larry would come home from work and I would have Carson in the front pack just so that I could make dinner because he had been fussy and wanted me to hold him. Once he saw what I was doing he was fine and happy. As he got older and became more mobile he became happier. Carson LOVES his dad. He loves me to but when Larry gets home it is all about dad. Carson will be eating and when Larry gets home Carson will not want to eat and start to whine until Larry picks him up and then he wants to just sit with larry and eat with him. Anyway Carson's one year dr. appointment went really well he is still on the 100 percentile in height and he went from the 25th percentile to the 50th in weight. He is a very long child. He comes up to Zach's armpit so that can give you clue. Carson is 32 inches long and Zach is 42 and a half inches. I have a feeling that Carson is going to be taller then his older brother. Carson loves to play with the kids and be involved in what they are doing. He loves to play with balls and throw them. We had a great first birthday party for him. We just had a couple of friends over and then just family. Nothing to fancy.

Here is the cake. Carson also likes cars and trucks.

Some of the older children that were there.

Me and the birthday boy before all the chaos.

Madison and Zach helping blow out the candles.

And so he starts eating the cake.

He isn't quite to sure what to think or what to do with it. Go figure that we had to show him that he needed to use his hands to eat this. Sometimes he doesn't like to get to messy when eating.

He got the hang of it and he began eating his cake and ice cream.

He is saying "give me five". I am saying"I don't think so not like that".

This is the end result. He got it all over the place. In his hair everywhere.

This is him before I took him to go have a bath before presents.

Opening presents. He did pretty good actually, he had a little help with the ripping but he got the hang of it eventually.

This is what happens when we are all done and he wants to play with his toys.
