Clap with me!

Carter has always loved it when people clapped and watched very intently while any clapping was happening. On Friday his arms were swinging around as he was trying to clap, which was very cute, but no clapping occured. Yesterday afternoon he got it! He basically holds one hand in place and hits it with his other hand. We love it :)

A day (or five minutes) in my new pool

We bought Carter J a kiddie pool since he enjoys his bath so much. We finally got a combination of a warm enough day and the water was warm enough for us to get in. Carter mostly just sat there, but seemed to have a good time. Next Tuesday we start swim lessons, so stay posted for the big pool reactions.

Watch me grow!

On Tuesday Carter turned 7 months old! We can hardly believe it. He has changed so much and is quite the little man now. My god mother got me this bear so we could see how he grows and changes over his first year. I wanted to look at the changes, and I thought you would too. Enjoy :)

Sippy Cup

We are trying to get Carter J used his sippy cup. He uses it more as a chew toy or a wrestling mate, but hopefully he'll get used to it sooner or later!

Teeth!

This week we discovered that Carter has two teeth coming in. He refuses to let us look at them, but will let us feel them. We are clever parents though and tickled him to show us those pearly whites. It's a little blurry, and they are definately not all in, so you may need to squint to see those beautiful teeth. :)

Morning at the Park

This morning we went to a neighborhood park to play with Carter J. We swang and played in the sand. Carter likes the sand, but we have to be careful it doesn't go into his mouth like everything else does!
