Bumps and Bruises

Today was a big milestone day for us, Parker has his first official "big nasty bump on the head"! From my experience with Carsen I know that this is the first of many to come, but it still breaks my heart. My sweet baby boy ran full speed into the corner of the coffee table this morning and walked away with quite the trophy!

The other scratches on his face are the result of a run in with Carsen, a blanket, and a slide (don't ask) earlier in the week. This nasty bump has made my normally sweet little guy pretty darn cranky today, which resulted in Carsen being bitten on the back. Yes, shocking... Parker bit Carsen! Although I am thinking that the biting was triggered by one too many pokes to what Carsen has termed the "disgusting bump" forming on Parkers little head. Anyway, Grandma Wight saved the day by offering to have Carsen over to play... Thank you to Grandma Wight! :)

Oh and to those of you wanting me to do any vinyl for you, get with me this week because I am going to be trying to do a big order soon! Also, check out my new sister-in-laws blog! She just married my brother earlier this month and they have the cutest baby ( ellie the minnie beagle)! stefanieraehess@blogspot.com

Peace and quiet.... too quiet

After a fun and exciting day things are finally calm at our house tonight. While I do really enjoy the peace, I also miss the chatter of my charming little men. Parker has started trying to talk, and we have been having fun trying to translate, but apparantley we aren't doing a very good job because it seems that he is constantly frustrated with us for not doing as he asks! Those of you who know Carsen know what a little conversationalist he is. He has something to say about everything! This morning he had a little cough and he told me that he needed to eat some breakfast to wash his cough out of his throat and into his tummy... I could just eat him up!

Today was a big day for us, I took the boys to Kroger and they both rode in the little car together for the first time! This went surprisingly well and we made it through the store without any tears. Next we went to the mall with Grandma Wight and played in the play area for a little while. I'm not sure who enjoyed the toys more.. they boys or Grandma! I am so grateful that we have parents who live so near to us and enjoy playing with our boys as much, if not more, than we do!

Here we go....

Ok.... I too have been sucked into the wonderful world of blogging... I tried to resist, but the practical side of me says that this will be a great way for our our extended family and friends to keep up with us. Not only that, but now some of you, I won't mention names, won't have to beg us to send pictures of the boys. You will all have to be VERY patient with me because I have absolutely no idea what I am doing. I am thinking that I may have to persuade one of my younger more computer savvy siblings over to teach me how everything works... heaven forbid I admit to my dear husband that I don't know it all. Ha Ha I am really looking forward to sharing a little bit of our lives with you... it should be interesting, as anyone who knows Carsen knows that everyday is an adventure!
