6 Month pictures

We FINALLY got batteries back in the camera. Here are some great shots we got of Carter! I have to say he is quite adorable..... I am not biased at all!

6 MONTHS

Wow, what a busy month so far! I can't believe that January is already half over! Carter turned 6 months on the 12th. For his birthday he got to go to the doctors!! YAY for him. Actually it turned out to be a great appointment for him. He is 20lbs and 29 inches long. He is off the charts for height!! The doctor told us to start feeding him meat. I was just getting in the swing of veggies and fruit! So that night he had the meat from our cabbage rolls! He loved it. He is back to sleeping through the night! He must have been hungry! He still isn't rolling over....the doctor said don't worry about it. He has the strength to, he just has no desire to. He has been playing with the dogs a lot more! Ewok just walks away when he is done (or when Carter doesn't have any food). Toby loves Carter and will let Carter torture him as long as he wants! We feel sorry for him already. Carter had his shots yesterday. He cried for all of 20 seconds, and was really excited when we let him sit on the floor and play with the toys! There was another little girl there getting weighed in, she was 20 lbs and her mom was all excited because she is 2!!!! Jaice and I just laughed that we have a 20lb 6 month old! Gran and Grandpa are coming in February and we are so excited!!!! It will be a quick but nice visit!
On Sunday we went up to Mount Washington with Auntie Cathy and Uncle Dave! It was great to see snow again. It was foggy so we couldn't see much of the mountain, but it was a nice drive. We will have to go up again soon!
The batteries died in our camera, so not a lot of pictures have been taken. I have batteries loaded now so watch out! We will post some pictures soon!
We hope all is well with everyone and we hope everyone is having a great new year!

HAPPY NEW YEAR

It is day time....the flash makes it look darker!

"Look mom, I can sit, stick my tongue out, AND play with my book!"

Holy, I can't believe how fast 2009 went by! It was a busy year for us. We are so excited to see what adventures 2010 bring for us!
Well to start the new year off with a bang, Carter has 4-5 teeth coming in. I thought I saw 4 and Jaice thinks he sees 5. Poor little guy. He is a bit grumpy, but is powering through. He is loving all the food he gets to eat now. So far pea's and sweet potatoes are his favourite. I am getting the hang of making the food for him....the new food processor from Uncle Drew for Christmas helps a lot! I made apple sauce the other day and Jaice was mad because I didn't make any for him. Apparently he needs some as well! Carter is almost sitting completely on his own. It depends on what pants he is wearing. Now we just put a blanket down with pillows around him so that when he falls over it's ok.
Today we went for a mini-hike in Elk falls. Jaice says that he needs practice with the backpack before we venture too far! It was beautiful! I still can't believe it was +6 in January. The dogs are loving all the exploring we are doing. Carter fell asleep in the backpack. It was adorable!
Well that is all that is new for now. I am hoping to get Carter weighed this week. I am thinking he is 20 lbs! He goes for his 6 month shots on the 18th (6 months already.....time sure flies) and we will get him measured then!
We hope everyone had a great new years and wish everyone a very happy, healthy 2010!
