Carson singing

Carson loves Wubbzy. We have almost every episode on DVR, and we even have some DVDs. This one DVD has his new favorite song on it, and this is him singing it. I should've taped it the day before, because he actually sang a lot of it, but oh well. This is still way cute. :)

Finger painting and ice cream cones!

We started the day with Color Wonder finger paints. The boys liked the idea at first, but then started getting bored of it, because the colors weren't showing up on the paper fast enough.

Carson got mad, because I freaked out when he put his fingers, full of "clear" paint, in his mouth. I know the stuff's non-toxic, but I still freaked out. This was him after a couple times of me telling him not to put his fingers in his mouth.

Jaden wanted a picture, too.

Later in the day, after naps, we all had ice cream cones.

Carson devoured his.

He even stopped eating to say cheese (like he always does).

Jaden, on the other hand, said he didn't like the ice cream cone, so he scooped the ice cream out with his finger instead.

Carson then took Jaden's ice cream cone, after Jaden got down from the table, and proceeded to polish it off.

"All done!"

Day at the park

A good friend of mine was in town for a brief visit, and we went to Howard Amon Park. It was right at nap time for Carson, and he did end up falling asleep on the way there, but we played our little hearts out anyway. I didn't get to take many pictures, because I was chasing mostly Carson around the whole time, so these are the two pictures I actually got.

First day of Spring 2010

We finally got the swing set put back up! It was a nice day, and I pretty much begged Chris to at least try to do it without his dad. Actually, all I was hoping for was to get the main part (the play area with the slide) leveled out, but I got the whole thing! The boys were very happy, too. Carson hated, and I mean HATED the baby swing last year, but seems to be OK with it now. He even stopped to say "cheese!".

I don't know what this expression was, but he's just too cute. :)

After Carson was done swinging this was his place for the remainder of the time we were outside...

...until we got the trampoline the rest of the way up (I was putting it together while Chris was putting the finishing touches on the swing set).

Jaden was scared to DEATH of the trampoline last year, but LOVES it now! Carson has always liked it.

Don't worry - Carson wasn't crying - he was laughing up a storm. :)

Beautiful day!

It was beautiful today! It's actually been pretty nice here for awhile now, but on the really nice days I always had something to do, so the kids never got to play outside. Well, today we finally got out. We first went down the street a bit with the boys' new rides (Carson's is in the post before this, and Jaden got a fire truck), then we stopped off in the backyard when we got back home. Carson felt like "painting" the fence first.

Carson then realized that Jaden was playing in the sand...with cars!

Carson was putting his hands in the sand and flinging his arms backwards, resulting in sand going everywhere. He was might proud of himself, too.

Stopping to say cheese.

Jaden said cheese, but the sun was too bright for him.

Carson's new ride

Carson got a new ride yesterday, and he absolutely loves it! We got this for Carson so he was entertained in something while I/we try to teach Jaden how to at least pedal his bike. I tried, one day, to help teach Jaden to pedal his bike, and it was hell trying to keep track of Carson at the same time. I had to end up holding Carson, which was very uncomfortable on my pregnant belly while trying to pull Jaden's bike with a towel (just gently - to get him to keep pedaling forward instead of backwards, hitting the breaks). That didn't do much good, because I just wanted to go back inside after that. So! I hope this car will do the trick. It has a handle on the back so I can push him if need be. I think I'm done trying the towel method with Jaden.

Climbing back in. He rarely uses the door to go in and out.

Watching TV

No clue what's up with this face.

"Cheese."

The Curious Case of Carson and the Do-Rag

Carson was begging for anyone to put this do-rag on one night. He ended up begging again the next day, so I figured out how to do it. It wasn't hard, but it had been a very long time since I had done one, so I was a little rusty. He was super happy once I got it on him. He went into his ball pit and started playing in there. I got out the camera, because I thought he looked so adorable in his do-rag.

After he heard the camera take the first picture he finished getting in, turned around and said, "Wiskey!" (Thanks Papa ;) )

He then started posing, and I told him to say cheese. This is him saying, "Say cheese!"

And this is him saying only, "Cheese!" What a cutie!

Carson's undressing himself?

By now you know we always check on the boys before we go to bed. Mainly, I make sure Carson has covers on, because he hasn't quite learned how to do that yet. This is how I found him the other night. He had no covers on (as usual), and one of his arms was completely out of his shirt. Every time he wears these pajamas he's always trying to undress himself. I think it's because these pajamas are more loose fitting than all of his other pajamas. Chris put Carson's arm back in, and Carson didn't even move. He was OUT!

25 weeks!

These were taken yesterday when I was 21 weeks 1 day pregnant. I'd say I can't believe I'm over halfway done, but I can. It seems like I've been pregnant forever, lol. Maybe that has something to do with having all three kids so close together, so it feels like I've never NOT been pregnant. I can't believe Kami is sitting so low already. It feels like I've already dropped, but this is how I've been this whole time (I think, lol).

Here I am at 25w1d with Carson. Crazy how much lower I am with Kami at the same gestation!

Carson, and the ball pit...

...they go way back, to Christmas 2009. ;) He just loves this thing. He knew it was close to bath time, so he got in his ball pit and attempted to bury himself in the 150 (maybe less by now) balls it has in it. He was just chillin' in there. It was so cute! He also, of course, had to "pose" for the camera, lol.

Boys on the computer

Now that Chris's computer has been fixed as much as it's going to get fixed, Jaden has started to play on it again. It used to be on the dinner table with an actual mouse, but Chris has now taught Jaden how to use the laptop mouse. Jaden now plays his games everyday. Carson was intrigued, and tried to take over the laptop at first, but ended up sitting and watching.

And, of course, after he heard the first picture take, he said, "Say cheese!" and cheesed for the next picture.
