Future Missionary

I think my husband Matt is pretty darn talented! I love all the photos he gets of Carson. We went down to the temple grounds on Sunday to take pictures of my brothers kids and Matt snapped a few of Carson as well. I love little boy Sunday clothes!

When we're helping we're happy

Carson has been quite cranky lately due to a mix of ear aches and teeth coming in. He walks around saying "no" all day and it drives me nuts! As long as we keep him busy and occupied he seems to do better. Here he is helping my mom do the dishes on Sunday. I think there was more water on the chair, floor and counter tops than in the sink!

Project

We woke up Saturday morning and felt like doing something productive. Matt ended up unassembling our front porch swing so we could sand it down and repaint it. Carson thought Matt's new sander was pretty funny. I'll have to post a picture once we've actually finished the project.

Teeter Totter

It was love at first sight! Carson would not play with anything at the park once he saw this thing. Even when there wasn't anyone for him to go up and down with - he still loved it.

What will he think of next?

Carson was following me around while I did some work around the house. I unloaded the dryer and took everything back to our room. I came back and Carson had climbed into the dryer. It is really amazing to me the things he thinks of doing these days!

Dads will be dads!

It was a Sunday afternoon and we were over at Matt's parents house for dinner. Carson, Matt and his dad went outside. I came to see what they were doing and this is what I saw. Carson - getting a drink from the neighbors sprinkler. I was a little upset that Matt would let him get all wet, but it was pretty funny. Dads will be dads I guess!

Easter Sunday

Our little man all dressed up for Easter Sunday. Doesn't he look so handsome!? Yesterday was also extra special because Carson went to Nursery for the first time! Hooray! I asked how he did and they told me he got a little nervous at times, but did very well.

Here is Carson holding his first handout he brought home from Nursery. I was so proud and of course we had to take a picture and then it went straight onto the refrigerator.

More Easter Fun

After the egg hunt we went back to my parent's house for more activities. Liza brought a blow up pool and despite being a little chilly the kids enjoyed themselves. Carson didn't really appreciate it at first as you can see in this picture, but he warmed up to the idea and had a great time.

Carson was the littlest in the pool and finally opted to sit on Grandma's lap and watch the action. It's a rare occasion to see Carson sitting anywhere for an extended period of time so this was especially cute to see!

Carson was loving Grandma's attention. Here he is with Grandma and cousin Ashley.

Let the egg hunting begin!

We had such a fun weekend with family! Carson went on three Easter egg hunts. It was fun to watch him pick up eggs, put them in his basket and then put them back in the grass or wherever they were hidden. He finally figured out there was candy in the eggs and was totally done searching after that.

Carson and Grandma & Papa's House

Carson at the annual Woolf-Terry Family Easter hunt. It was insane! I wished I had pictures of the older cousins baskets. Cade and Noah both had to get a second basket for all their eggs. Carson was good with the six he found.

Thanks to his cousin Hunter - Carson found this jackpot! Hunter kept opening eggs and letting all his candy fall out. Carson found a nice little spot near the abandoned goodies and went at it.

Baby Kassie!

My brother and his wife just had their 3rd kid. Her name is Kassidy but she will go by Kassie. She is just adorable! We took them dinner on Tuesday night. Really it was just an excuse to go over and hold the baby! :) This picture is Carson's attempt to give her a hug without getting too close. He just squeezed her tummy in a bit. This is grandchild #14 for my parents.

Carson is testing out Kassie's baby bouncer. I think he is over the weight restriction but still enjoyed it and we got a good laugh too.

An afternoon at the park!

As you can see we go to the park quite a bit. We have to get in all the fun before it is too hot and someone might die from heat stroke. For the month of April I am babysitting a little neighbor girl three days a week. Her mom needed some help and it has actually been quite fun to have a 4 1/2 year old around. She and Carson get along great and keep each other entertained. She keeps me company too. It's nice to be able to have a conversation with someone.
