First haircut!

Well, we finally did it! Carter got his first haircut today!!! He did SO well, we were very impressed. The stylist kept saying over and over again how well he was behaving for his first haircut :) He did have a meltdown at the end though. But don't they all?!?! ;)

Before & After

4 months old...

Carter is 4 months old today! He went for his 4 month checkup this week and is 25 inches long & weighs 16 lbs 7 oz! Growing like crazy!! He can even sit up unassisted for up to 10 seconds before falling over. The dr was VERY impressed! His favorite things these days are playing in his gym with this mysterious baby he sees in the mirror (so funny that he has NO idea it's him!), being outside in his new swing and eating (what a shock, right?!). He LOVES his oatmeal! He actually forcefully throws his hands towards his mouth when I have the spoon near him. I think he is trying to help?! It's so funny...can't wait for him to try new veggies & fruits. Coming soon!

Disclaimer: I know his hair is out of control in some of these pics! We will be getting him his first haircut very soon. Everyone says "They shouldn't get their haircut until they are 1!" Umm....his will be longer than mine. And I am already SICK of people thinking he's a girl b/c it's so long. Too long to fix & spike...It's time!

Picture me rollin'!

Ok...so the title of the post. For some reason, I have that song "Picture me rollin" by Tupac in my head. Why? I have no idea. I am tired & a little delirious from trying to get everything wrapped up here at school after being gone for 3 months! ANYWAYS....

Carter has rolled over! See, the post title isn't THAT off! ;)

*Side note: Yes, I know. ROLLING OVER is not what Tupac was talking about!

Watch the video below. He has mastered tummy to back...now we just have to go the other way! Yay!

3 months old....

Carter will be 3 months old on Tuesday, the 25th! Wow!! He has had an eventful month. He is continually growing & changing. He is sleeping like an angel at night (but not a big fan of naps apparently). He has perfected holding his head up and he loves sitting and standing up...and I swear he will sit up unassisted soon, he is a STRONG boy!! He still plays in his Bumbo, bouncy seat, and in his gym. He loves going for walks in his stroller or in his Baby Bjorn (notice the pic of Tim carrying him on one of our walks....The Hangover anyone?! Should we name him Baby Carlos?! Lol!) Our newest toy is the Doorway Jumper. Tim absolutely lived in his as a baby. So we are hoping Carter enjoys his as much. (He is a little small for it right now though, so no pics yet!) :) Also, he enjoys being read to. His favorite book is called Colors. He discovered his hands a few weeks ago...and that is my absolute favorite thing EVER! He loves staring at them...and putting them in his mouth of course (which means he discovered the washcloth in the bath & how yummy it is....love it!). He still talks all the time, blows bubbles, drools like crazy. We even managed to catch him laughing...see the video below. So fun!
