What We Did This Summer: Part 3

What We Did This Summer: Part 2

What We Did This Summer: Part 1

Apples are good! Another great reason that Fall is a good thing!

This is Carson signing more! Finally...after months and months of trying to get him to say the word while I signed. I guess the sign stuck more than the whole talking thing!

Also Carson got his top 2 molars....no problems too! No screaming, ear infections etc! Score for us!

Carson is obsessed with Brown Bear, Brown Bear, we read it about 8 times a day. He also sits down and reads it to himself. So sweet that he loves books.

And in case you didn't know a cow says "BOOOOO" well according to Carson that is!

The Tale of Trembley's.

Once there was a baby named Carson, his Nana took him to a candy store and told him he could pick out a couple pieces of candy.
So they grabbed a basket and walked around putting baby friendly candy in it.

Then Carson spotted some the Tootsie Pops. Carson knows he likes suckers and those orange ones looked ohhh so tasty. So he thought he'd grab 3.

But Nana told him "Only 1 Carson" and that statement resulted in this:

But than he realized he had 1 orange Tootsie Pop and life was good again.

Well my baby is 15 months! He is such a great kid! His vocabulary is growing(not as fast as mommy would like) and says funny things, not your normal baby talk. He says:
-Right There(Bird, Airplane, Dog, Bus, Firetruck can all be described as Right There with a point!)
-Thank You
-Hi actually pronounced Heeeeey
-Hayden
-Bless You(He has said this multiple times when we've sneezed?!?!)
-Breakfast(he only repeats it when I say it. He LOVES breakfast, his favorite food? Cereal with milk. Hayden HATES milk and cereal, so funny these two boys!!)
-eh eh that pretty much sums up anything he wants with a point. Successful talking right? -All Done

He still loves to be outside, sliding, playing in the sandbox dumping sand into a bucket with a shovel or spoon...yes spoon. We've set a little pool up and he loves to be in there too. We usually keep 1 of the strollers in the house and he loves to go sit in there and says eh eh, he wants to go on a walk so bad! Its usually how he falls asleep for his nap. He loves spoons and forks and cups, they usually are all over the house. I find forks(little plastic ones) in drawers, in the fridge etc. Whatever makes him happy right?
He loves to climb, on the chair, coach, my computer chair, my computer desk whatever he can get up. Such a monkey. He likes to sit on the couch and sits right between the two couch cushions and looks so proud.
He still carries his blanket and buffy around. The other night in bed my pillow got throw on my head and it was Carson in a frantic search for his blanket...he was sitting on it.
He loves cars and trucks too. He makes a cute little motor type noise when playing or driving in a truck. He also loves his Corn Popper lately, mostly because Hayden hates it because it makes so much noise! Ahhh brothers.
He still loves, loves animals. We went to Fawn Doe Rosa in the end of July and he was in animal heaven, he was so happy and walked around following animals, kissing on bunnies and sticking fingers in calves mouths. He has no fear of them, which is great. At the Kitchen store in Hayward they have two dogs and Carson was so excited and gave them loves(hugs) and kisses.
Carson loves to give love and kisses. He blows when mean kiss too! Complete with a giant Mwah sound at the end.
Lately he has been playing blocks, we have about 80 different kids of blocks and he is getting quite good at building towers, the highest I've seen is 7 high. But as we all know knocking them down is a lot more fun than building.
He loves to play ball with Hayden and Daddy too. Even caught the ball the other day. Hopefully we'll have their love of sports.

We visited Dr. Maria on Monday and all is well, except the whole talking thing but we know he is smart and we think he chooses not to talk. He easily does 2 and 3 step commands and knows exactly what we are talking about when we say something. He nods and shakes his head to answer questions too.
Carson weighs 25 pounds 3 oz and 31 7/8 inches long. A little over 50% for weight and a little under 75% for height head is 75% too. He wears a mix of 12 and 18 month clothes size 4 diapers and size 5 shoes! Getting big!

Yay! Mommy got a new camera...here is some Hayden pics from its first outing!

Finally after 5 years of living in our house we've done something to our bedroom! I wanted something that would match my bedding and curtains...two items I had and loved. My bedding is pretty old but its simple and we like it! I just put the curtains up when Carson was born...yeah it was 4 years before we put curtains up, we always had blinds!

I just couldn't come up with an accent color until I was at a store in the cities...Patina and saw my inspiration! Orange, white and turquoise! When I returned home I googled up my color combo and saw that it's a trend right now! Go me! I tried to stay simple and not done yet! I still have on my wishlist:

-A tall dark wicker basket with lid for laundry

-Dark wooden or faux wood blinds

-Orange Lamp

-Orange Pictures. I have some flower pics I took just need to print them! I already have the frames too!

-Branches painted white in the vase on the nightstand.

-Orange Pillows.

-Pillows with orange and turquoise!

The walls are Summer Rays...its not as yellow as it appears here and at night it looks a lot more beige/brown. The fabric in the frame was bought to make pillows, but I don't think it goes anymore. The other fabric swatch I am trying to track down, they have a whole line with the colors.
