More goggles!

Here's another picture of Carson in his goggles. I'm reading him a story before he goes to bed and of course he still has them on! This picture also makes me laugh because Carson is shirtless which is pretty typical. He asks for "Pants, not my shirt on." Yesterday he surprised us both when I asked him to go get some jammies and he can back out with his pajama shorts ON. He had done it all by himself! Granted they were on backwards, but hey he did it himself!!
Now if we could just get him potty trained we'd be set!

Carson's new love...goggles. He wore these on the 4th of July all day while he swam and we could not get them off him. He slept with them or carried them around for the next several days. He has been taking swimming lessons and his instructor asked that we try to get him not to wear them. He was more interested in looking around under water and wouldn't swim to the side. I hid them for church on Sunday and told him they were broken the next time we went swimming and he didn't even throw a fit! He is such a fish. He is doing really well with his swimming lessons. He's actually getting some place when he kicks! He monkey crawls along the wall, can pull himself out of the pool, holds his breath great and can swim a few feet by himself.

My two favorite guys! Matt has been so wonderful since I've been working. I'm sure it's not easy dealing with an emotional pregnant woman. He is so great with Carson and beyond helpful at home.

Showing off his swimming skills.
Matt and Carson doing what they do best....laughing and playing.
I love my boys! I can't believe I'll have another one in November.

1/2 way there!!

Although I'm not very fond of photos of myself...I thought it was important to document my 1/2 way there baby bump. Yes, today marks the 1/2 way point. Very exciting. Our lives continue to be very busy, but we are happy to get life more situated before this little boy arrives. Carson pats my belly on a daily basis. We pulled the swing, bouncer, etc. down from the attic and he asks me everyday if they are for the baby.
