Growing boy!

Carson has passed the 18-month-old mark! We cannot believe how fast he is growing and that he is already this old! We went today for his 18-month check up and Dr. Saade said he is perfect...we already knew that, but its nice to have professional confirmation!
Carson now weighs 24 lbs, 10 oz (50th percentile) and is 33 inches tall (75th percentile). Dr. Saade asked a lot of questions about his development and Carson is right on track for where he should be at this age!
Carson LOVES to play outside now...hopefully the weather will continue to cooperate! He also loves Daddy's truck...he likes to drive around the neighborhood or just sit in the car and pretend to drive! We are creating a monster and are realizing how much we are going to spend in gas if this hobby keeps up! Carson vocabulary is also growing...he tries to repeat words you tell him and his favorite words are "bye-bye," "side" (for outside), Pawpaw (his favorite person!), "eat," and "Willy" (his stuffed gorilla, but the way he says it sounds like "illy"). We love to show him pictures and see how he recognizes people...he loves to point out Daddy, Nana, and Pawpaw! When we point to Mommy and say "who's that?" he sometimes says "Cindy"...great!!!
After Carson's appointment today we went to Pigtails and Crewcuts for another haircut! This time Carson wasn't so thrilled to be there...he cried the whole time! The girl who cut his hair was wonderful though and he looks so handsome! She said his hair is SO thick and that he is going to have MAJOR hair when he gets older...yippee!
We are excited for Easter this coming weekend! We are going to church with Johnathan's family, the we are heading to the Oshinski's house for a family get-together! Happy Easter to you all!

Loves to play outside!
Check out that cheesy smile as he cuts the grass!

Carson's first outside boo-boo!

Uh-oh...something new he's learned to do!

M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E!!!

All the kids Carson's age LOVE Mickey Mouse Clubhouse! It only seemed fitting that Carson's friend Walker had his 1st Birthday party with this theme! Lindsey did such a good job planning this party...there was Mickey Mouse stuff EVERYWHERE!! The kids had a blast...Carson loved that fact that he could run free in the barn and play with all the other kids! Here's a few pictures of the extravaganza!


Walker's amazing birthday cake!

Having fun on the slide!
