Rob and I met in Aug of 2006, dated, feel in love, and were married in the Mesa AZ temple in Aug 2007. Our handsome, adorable, precious little boy was born June 2011. Rob is attending Optometry School at Midwestern University and I am currently a stay and home Mama and lovin' it! Life couldn't get much better than this!
I love having dance parties at home! No I am NOT a good dancer, but I love to just blast the music and dance all around. However, if you know Rob at all then you know that he was blessed with two left feet and does NOT dance (only slow dances)! Now that I got Baby C, I have a dance partner! So what did we do on our Friday night?!?! That's right, kitchen dance party after din din! Carson had fun and was laughing so much! We even got Daddy to participate some...true miracle! Can't wait for our next dance party! And if you don't at least smile when you hear Baby C's laugh in the video below, then you must be in a horrible mood! :) It makes me giggle every time!
Don't mind my weird face! haha. I make funny faces when I dance!
Dunk and Kiss!
I had to trick Rob to get this video... If you listen you will hear him ask if I set the camera on a timer. He thought that I was taking a still picture! haha. When I broke the news you could tell he instantly gets more nervous! Little does he know I am posting it to the blog! Love him!
One of my best friends from High School just happens to go to the same school as Rob... that worked out nice :).... and we have been having a lot of fun living in the same city once again! She is always so good about taking time out of her busy schedule to hang out with Carson and I! Elyse found out that Downtown Glendale was having a Chocolate Festival today and we decided that we had to check it out! There was A LOT of chocolate and a lot of people! They dipped everything in chocolate...even bacon..gross! We walked around and looked at all of our choices and decided to play it safe and go for the chocolate covered strawberries! They were VERY yummy! Thanks for hanging out with us Elyse!
They looked much pettier when first got them, but of course since it was blazing hot today they melted a bit on the ride home! Don't worry, they still tasted fantastic!
Car Car is getting really good at crawling and now is working on pulling himself up on things. He still is pretty shaky getting up and staying up and has had a few crash landings, but he never gives up! One of his favorite things to pull up to is his activity table that he got from Santa!
Around 6 1/2 months, we gave Carson some Cheerios and puffs, but he didn't want anything to do with them. For the first couple of days we would put them in his mouth and he would stick out his tongue with the Cheerio on it and just cry until we took it off. Silly boy! After a few days of this, he finally realized that we were actually giving him something good! He LOVES his finger foods now and is getting really good at getting the food in his mouth. But he still misses every once and a while. Tonight Rob watched him miss and stick his Cheerio on his face! Daddy was on top of things and took a quick picture!
Every Tuesday Rob has a big teat at school, so he is pretty busy studying all week and weekend and doesn't have much time to play. Since Tuesdays are the end of one cycle and the beginning of another, Rob usually takes some time off those nights and spends extra time playing with us! We love Tuesday evenings. Tonight we went to a park that is near our house! Carson absolutely loves to swing. His face lights up the moment we put him in one! He has such a fun time and laughs and laughs and laughs! We also took Roxy and ran around the park with her until it started getting darker and it was time for dinner! We are so excited the weather is getting so nice and we can play at the park more often.
Today Baby C went shopping with me. He didn't like his stroller too much, so at the second store I decided to just carry him. As I was looking through the racks, I kept catching him calmly (unusual for him) looking at me and examining my face while so sweetly smiling. I would look at him, with his smooth cheeks with his gummy smile, and his eyes would glow with excitement and happiness. Even though he can't talk...he didn't need to...I could tell how much he loved me. It was such a sweet moment and he is such a sweet little boy! Words can't say how much I love and adore him. It's moments like that, that I want to catch in a jar and save for those days when I know his Mama isn't going to be his favorite!
