Happy 1st Birthday, Carson!

Today, our little man turned the big ONE! It is amazing how fast a year can fly. It seems like only yesterday that we were going to the hospital to meet the little one for the first time. Carson, you have filled your mommy and daddy with so much joy this first year. You have made us laugh until we have a belly ache, smile like their is no tomorrow, and cry due to unmeasurable gratitude. We can't imagine what life was like before you were here! So...today we thank God...for blessing us with the ability to take care of one of His children...for giving us a healthy, beautiful boy...for teaching us what is truly important in this life! We love you Little Man!

The Birthday Boy!


On Sunday, we celebrated Carson's first birthday party. It was originally set for Saturday, but due to a stomach bug, the party was moved. Carson woke up from his Sunday afternoon nap to a living room of familiar faces saying "Happy Birthday!". How did Carson respond? He cried. Guess it was too overwhelming. He warmed up quickly!

Uncle J and Aunt Ashley won Carson's heart with their truck present that also played music.


Thanks for my new carseat, Granna and Grandy!


Thanks for my new wagon, Mimi and Pop!

Carson didn't much care for birthday cake! I guess it is a little too sweet for now!

Carson loves music! He was a great student as K.K. taught him a few notes. I love how he is sitting up on his knees!


On November 19, 2011, Carson had his first haircut at Cool Cuts for Kids. He did a great job sitting in the car and observing every little move the lady made. Now, he looks like a little man.
