Swimming Lessons!

Swimming Lessons!

Well.....I don't know that he learned much, but he sure had fun. We attended a swimming class for 2 and 3 year olds once a week for five weeks. We mainly focused on getting Carson used to the water..the kids got to play with toys, kick, and sing songs. Carson's favorite part was jumping in from the side.....he laughed and laughed. Hopefully he'll continue to love the water!

April 08 - Carson turns 2!

April 14th - Carson turns 2!
We had family over to celebrate his big day....he was a little shy at first and insisted on sitting on mommy's lap while opening presents. He LOVED his Nemo cake, needless to say, he headed straight to the tub after eating the bright blue and green frosting!

March 08 - Mexico!

We were lucky enough to take a trip to Mexico for 5 days in March/April. It was wonderful. Beautiful weather....sure missed Carson, but it was also nice to spend some time as adults with no kids! We figured this may be our last trip before planning 'kids adventures' to Disneyworld :)

February 08

We visited my Grandma and Gorman's place in Mesa, AZ at the end of February. It was Carson's 1st flight and he managed to do pretty well (we were all a little nervous!) My mom and dad came with as well. It was a fun time, unfortunately the weather turned really nice a few days after we left:) It was still nice to get away!

It's been awhile!

Wow -- I thought this was such a great idea and now am realizing that I can't seem to find the time to sit down and do it! I'll update you on what has been going on since January 17th!

Sick!

Carson has strep throat :( Bummer. Seems like he's had a touch of everything this winter! He's on antibiotics so hope to have him back to himself in no time....

New Years Eve

We were wild!! We visited out friends, Jamie, Lisa & Brielle and took the kids to Chuck E Cheese before putting them to bed --- then we enjoyed some great food & drinks & games. It was a good time.

Taking down the tree

Carson had MUCH more fun helping mommy "destroy" the tree than putting it up!! I'm pretty sure the color codes are not in order for next year - but that's okay!

Perhaps the best gift of them all?!?!?

We drove out to Clarkfield on December 29th and boy did this travel DVD player come in handy!

Christmas at home

We're home!! We spend part of Christmas Day and the day after at our house enjoying all our new toys!!

Christmas in Litchfield!

Christmas Eve -

We spent a few days at my parent's house. Despite my dad not feeling well, we still managed to have a good time. Carson seemed to get a little more into the idea of opening the presents and didn't want to open any more once he found one to play with! He was a spoiled little boy and we brought home many toys that make a lot of noise!

Christmas in Fargo

We spent Saturday & Sunday (22nd & 23rd) in Fargo with Mark's family. The highlight for Carson was probably his time spent at Chuck E Cheese - we were surprised that he actually went up front to meet him! This was Carson's first taste of presents and he wasn't sure what to think...more interested in the packaging and/or the old toys that grandma had out for him........
