Tales of a thumbsucker....

So yesterday I was trimming Carter's fingernails and when I got to his thumb we had this conversation....

Me "Is this the thumb you suck?"
Carter "Ya!"
Me "What does it taste like?"
Carter (without hesitation) "Mocha!"

Hmmm.... what's that say about Mommy's favorite drink???
Guess he's heard me ordering that one a few times =)

A visit from the Thomas Family!

This past weekend we had the joy of hosting Ryan and Martha Thomas along with their twin sons, Ethan and Garrett. It was the first time we got to meet these little guys and they were so fun to have around. We can't wait to see them again! Thanks for stopping in, it was so good to see you!!

8 Months Old

TW is now 8 months old, here's a few of his newest tricks -

-Army crawling all over the house!

-Starting to pull up on the furniture!

-Saying Da-da-da-da and Ba-ba-ba-ba!

-Riding in the wagon!

-Staying in the nursery at church!!!

-Eating new foods: green beans, peas, turkey, sweet potatoes, avocadoes, applesauce!

-Cutting teeth - he has TWO now!!!

Turner's first tooth!

Last Thursday, TW finally poked his first tooth thru!
I spent 20 minutes trying to get a picture and here's what I got - you can't even see it - but it's there!!!

Chillin' with the neighbors!

One night a couple weeks ago we had all the neighbors on the block over for root beer floats. It was a great time to get to know them all a little better! Carter absolutely loved playing with all the kids - which happen to be 4 girls (2-4th graders, 1-6th grader and 1-8th grader). They all adore him and tried to teach him how to play volleyball and soccer as well as learn how to ride their big scooters! TW on the other hand spent his time charming the women!

Too many posts to do, too little time!

We've been BUSY!!!!!!! Here's a preview of blogs that are in my head and pictures in my camera that may/may not ever appear on here......

-Turner's 1st tooth
-A day at the park, another day at the park, another park trip, etc. we are lovin' the park these days!
-Brothers in the wagon - first ride together.
-Carter's new tunnel/tent toy from Aunt Heidi!
-Another visit from Nana and Papa.
-And I'm sure much more I've missed....

Hope to be a bloggin' queen again soon!
