Going to the Big Leagues

You may accuse me of having my eyes clouded by parenthood, but Carson definitely has early catching skills. Major Leagues, here he comes!

Making Amends with Frank

While I have acute amnesia for all memories of difficult times during Brady's childhood, Jeremy says that Brady and Carson are similar in many ways that I seem to have forgotten. For example, I am told that changing Brady's diapers was just as much of a wrestling match as it is with Carson now (really, Jer? I just don't remember that). But, I can't believe that Brady's "babyhood" passed by as quickly as Carson's is passing. Although, it must have, because how did Brady get to be a giant 3-year-old smarty-pants who calls me "Mom" and repeats funny things that he sees on T.V.? At any rate, Carson enjoys walking babies and pushing cars around even though he doesn't seem quite ready to walk on his own yet...thank goodness! Slow down, Carson! I need the memories to stick this time!

Oh, and if any of you are confused about the title of this post, Frank is Brady's Cabbage Patch Doll who Carson was terrified of for a while.

Proof
















I just thought I'd share proof of why the boys get away with everything in this house. How could I possibly say no to these two?!

Some "Catch-up" Shots
















Just a little update on the boys: Brady started school a few weeks ago and LOVES it. He walks in like he could care less about what his mama is doing all day. He is bringing home the cutest artwork, and already learning new letters and numbers. Carson has gotten 2 new "chicklets" as seen in the top picture. He is using them to eat things that babies just really shouldn't eat. He is also planning on joining the circus with his mad skills in roll-balancing, as shown in the bottom 2 pictures...he is carefully balancing a dinner roll on his shoulder while going about his business nonchalantly. Quite impressive, really.
As always, we are very proud of our boys!
