A little R&R…

 

Rest & Relaxation that is!!  && these boys know how to kick back :) Today we spent the whole day at home…did not leave once! It was so cold and windy today, too cold to do anything! We didn’t have anything to do anyway, which made for a perfect ‘chill’ day.  Carter & Mommy took a nap around 1 and slept until 3:15…..ahhh I love snuggling with him and taking naps :) its the best! Then we woke up and played, ate dinner, & watched Barney!

Here are some pictures of Carter and Daddy watching Barney…they look like they’re falling asleep don’t they?! haha!

Carter fell asleep around 8pm & I am pretty tired myself! I think I’m going to watch some TV with my hubby and then go to bed! Tomorrow is Sunday & some friends might be coming to visit :) So it might be a busy day..

Goodnight!!

Happy New Year!!

We spent our New Years eve watching movies! Yup…that’s what CJ & I did! Carter went to stay at my parents house & party it up with them :) he stayed up playing until 10pm!!!

The reason he went to stay over there is because we had made plans to either go out that night with friends or have friends over! well, both of those plans fizzled out at the last minute… We were both a little disappointed, but what can ya do! That’s life!! By the time we realized we weren’t going to do anything, it was too late to go get Carter & that would have upset the kids too so we had to suck it up even though we missed him :( lol!

CJ & I watched “The ugly truth” very funny…we both really liked it! && we watched “Paranormal Activity” Very Scary!!!!! We were both jumping during this movie!! Anyway, here are some 2009 pictures of Carter before we left to take him to my mom’s on NYE!

My mom told me he was such a good boy over there and even slept in until 9am the next day! I guess that’s because he stayed up late playing :) All in all, I have to say it was a good New Years. Carter had a good time & CJ & I got to spend it together!!! Happy 2010!

Dinner with the gals & 3 boys!

Tonight we went to Outback for dinner and met some friends :) Originally I was going to leave Carter at home, but he ended up coming with me because daddy was helping Alan & Granny was at the store! Granny actually offered to pick him up from Outback on her way home, but when she called he was being so good I decided to keep him with me!

Well, not even 10 minutes later he had enough of "being good!" haha! I don't want to say he was 'bad' because he's not-he's just a toddler!!! It's to be expected with them at this age! Needless to say, next time I go out for a "girls dinner" I will not be bringing him ;) He can stay home and play with daddy! He would rather do that anyway I'm sure.

Here is a picture of all of us!!


&& Ohhh...I almost forgot! Thank You Mandi, again, for grabbing my camera! I still can't believe I almost left it there!

After we got home, I gave Carter some of CJ's leftover's..haha... Then, I got him in the tub and put him to bed. Before I put him to sleep, I noticed this little rash on his belly, thighs, & neck. It isn't raised and it doesn't seem like he is itchy. It looks like little redish/pink dots, but again, when I run my hand across it...I feel nothing?! So, I will be keeping a close eye on this, whatever it is! The last time I took him to see Dr. Mena, he had a similar looking rash/spots on his arms. She said it was dry skin. However, I put lotion on this kid religiously!!!! Maybe I need to get him some medicated, ultra moisturizing lotion or something...We'll see!!

Tomorrow is New years eve & I get to leave work early!! Yay! I am going to try and blog with some last cute pictures of my baby in 2009!

Is is Sunday already?

I’m still in shock that Christmas is over & so is the weekend! Its back to work tomorrow already…geez! Why can’t we all have 2 weeks off for the holidays ever year?! That would be nice!

Saturday CJ & I ventured out to the mall and I actually got some things for myself : ) Which was nice! Then we went back home and relaxed!

Today we went to Target and got some pictures printed from Christmas! The whole time in the store, Carter was saying “Hi” to almost everyone we walked past..ahaha! The little old ladies love him! After that, we came back home and ate dinner. I put in one of Carter’s Barney DVD’S on after we ate and cleaned while he watched it. He sat so still and zoned into it…I had to get some pictures of him….

Christmas 2009 Family pictures

Christmas was such a hectic day that by the time it was over, I was too tired to post more pictures! After opening gifts and eating breakfast, we started to get ready for our big day. Carter took a nap around lunch time and while he was sleeping, we showered and cleaned up! We were supposed to eat at 2:00pm, but we didn’t end up eating until around 3:30pm! After dinner at our house, we went to my parents house and by the time we got home…all I wanted to do was hit the sack. I love Christmas, but it is such a busy day-it wears you out!

Carter got some really nice gifts from everyone-Thank you all so much!! We (CJ & I) also got some nice gifts & checks for xmas…thanks again for that-you all know who you are & we love you :) However, even though gifts are nice, we all know the true meaning of Christmas is Jesus and family. We had such a blessed one, I am so thankful for that too!

So…enough blabbing.. & on with the pictures!

My love & I
