Carter & His Niece

Haylie stopped by right after Carter had gotten out of the bath but she still wanted to hold him and give him some loving. It's hard to tell with his hands in his face, but he really enjoyed her holding him.

Ho Ho Ho!

A Thanksgiving tradition - visit Santa in Gruene and get our picture taken. Carter didn't seem to mind visiting with Santa as much as Mason did, but luckily it looks like Mason was smiling instead of trying his darnest to slide off the back of the saddle and run away from the man in the red suit!

First Thanksgiving

Carter celebrated his first Thanksgiving with lunch at Whamie and Pepaw's and supper at Momo's house. He just turned 10 weeks old and had his 2 month checkup. He now weighs 15 pounds 5 ounces and is 25 inches long. That's in the 95% for height and 93% for weight. And he's still got the red hair!

9 weeks old

At 9 weeks old, Carter is really smiling and talking. He is starting to sleep for about a 5 hour stretch at night, which I guess is technically sleeping through the night? He has a new-found love that his "Aunt" Jenny handed down to him - it's a Fisher-Price Smooth Motion Glider which is sorta a combination between a swing and a bouncey chair, but this thing really rocks!!! (okay, so actually is glides, but Carter LOVES it!). And isn't his outfit a cutie? Thanks Leati and Patrick!

2 weeks portraits

Here's Carter's first official portrait session, with one of our local photographers. You can't tell by these shots, but Carter wasn't quite in the mood for picture taking. Can you believe he was only 2 weeks old here?!!

Meeting Big Bubba Kyle

Here is Carter meeting his brother-in-law for the first time. Kyle works off-shore every two weeks and so Carter hasn't seen him yet but was able to meet him for lunch after Haylie's soccer game.
