Toast Please

Carsyn has begun eating some 'table food'. Little pieces of bread, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese. Mostly because I tried those Gerber Graduates and those things are so gross. She ate them, but I couldn't stand them. Up until then/now, I had eaten everything she ate.

Mostly to satisfy my own curiosity, I have Carsyn a piece of toast at Golden Corral on Saturday. Half a piece. She couldn't get her hands on it fast enough. She really really tried hard to get the entire thing in her mouth. Needless to say, I took it back. All of it. She hadn't managed to get one little bite. I'm sparing you the yuckiness that followed. Then I gave her little pieces of the other half.

This Boat was Made for Water

Daddy loving on his baby girl. He's pretty thrilled about the whole thing. Boat and Baby.

Making waves at the Lake of the Arbuckles.

MawMaw holding on tight to Carsyn.

How cute his her Dora life jacket??? It's a smidgen big, but it'll be perfect by this summer.

O Captain my Captain.

Our friend Brett rode up with us to help get the boat all situated He's really good with Carsyn.

Bubbles

Tony's mom and dad bought Carsyn a little bubble maker. She kept her distance.

Here she is, rather bored. In fact, she's acting like those bubbles don't exist. That new cup is WAY more interesting.

OK, wait. What is this? Maybe life's not all about this cup. I mean, it just has water in it anyway.

Oooo, maybe I like these bubbles. Let me try. I need to touch it, maybe taste it.

OK, I'm serious now. I need to get to the bottom of this bubble thing.

Sorry, I don't have a good pic after this. I was on 'don't eat the soapy water' mommy mode.

Baby's Got a New Boat

I know you're asking which baby. Well...both. Tony is living his dream. Has a nice Tahoe and a boat to pull behind it. A beautiful wife and a sweet baby girl. Don't you love that Carsyn is color coordinated with her new toy!

Tony got up very early on Saturday and headed to Houston to buy this boat. Don't worry, he made it back home in time for the OU game.

I think she likes it!

Love Bug

Here is Carsyn Thursday morning on her way to Ms. Brandy's house. The pics aren't the best, but she was too cute. It's kind of hard to see, but her shirt says 'Love Bug'.

Random Cutiness

Because I know you can't get enough....

Halloween continued

Here are a few more pic from Halloween. Here is our hostess, Julie and Lincoln. This is Carsyn's daycare buddy.

Next to Julie is Catherine with Cason and then Michelle with Jack. This was the first Halloween for all of us with our new babies.

It was clearly a HUGE photo op. You might notice that I completely abandoned Carsyn in order to get this pic. She's ok. The street is further away than it looks.

Look at Carsyn posing with her first horse. She wasn't scared. She even petted it.

Little People

Here is Carsyn playing with her, new to her, garage sale find Little People toy. This one is a Zoo. I think she likes it!!

M&M Cutie

Growing up, we never really celebrated Halloween. I still don't want to make a big deal about it. Carsyn has this cute little green M&M onesie given to her way back before she was born. It made the perfect little costume without going overboard.

We went to some friends house for the evening. They have a little parade for the neighborhood kids.

Happy 10 month Birthday!

Is anyone else shocked by how fast the last 10 months have gone by???

At 10 months you are nothing shy of amazing.

You wear size 3 diapers.

You wear 12 month clothes.

You adore your daddy.

You are always so happy. Workers in the church nursery think you're fantastic.

You don't need a baby bath tub any more.

You can feed yourself now too. Peas, Carrots, Rice, Puffs.

You're actually drinking out of your sippy cup now.

You're a master crawler.

You pull up on everything, but aren't confident enough to let go.

You say "momma momma, momma momma".

You've also said 'dadadadadada". You're giving it a little rest right now, but I know you'll pick it back up soon.

You love to snuggle and pat. We pick you up and you pat pat pat on us.

You wear shoes almost every day.

You clap when you're excited.

You've been going to bed around 7 every night and sleeping until I come get you around 6.

You take a three hour nap at Ms. Brandy's.

You're basically the best baby ever.

We're so happy you're in our family too! :-)
