One Year Older

Jason turned 28 on June 9th! We went to dinner for his birthday, and spent time with our families! On June 11th, a lot of our friends got together at Nandos to celebrate Jason's birthday again! It was so nice to see so many people there! Jason didn't know it, but I had my cousin make a cake for him. This is the same cousin who made my wedding cake and my baby shower cake! It was in the shape of a Jack Daniels bottle, and it turned out AMAZING! Afterwards, we went to Toby Keiths and just had a good time! Happy Birthday Hubby!

Singing

Carlyn was sining on our way home in the car last night. She cracks me up! She wasn't mad...just tired...and singing! I love the way she "expresses" herself! There are two videos because I couldn't choose. At the end of one, she says Love you!

Early...but I'll take it!

I know Carlyn is only just about 15months, but for the past month or so, she has been telling us when she needs to poop! So, we bought a potty...an elmo potty...just to see what she would do. For the past couple of weeks, we have been putting her on it when she tells us she needs to go. She sits for a while, asks to get down, and if I entertain or distract her, she will stay up there...and the other day...she went pee-pee on the potty!!! YEAH!!! She has gone two or three times. I hope this continues, but am not going to push her since she is still so young! However, I was potty trained at 16months, so we'll see! Any suggesstions from you expert moms out there???

See How Big I Am?

I was cleaning the couch cushions one day, so they were off the couch, and just happen to catch this on camera!

14 Months

I was going to post new favorite pictures every three months or so of Carlyn, but I have WAY to many pictures! So, every two months, I'll post some of my favorite pictures taken of her! Here are pictures from 12 months -14 months!

Birthday Gelato

Jason was working on my birthday...I was a little bummed, but we did get to celebrate later together with a nice dinner at the Keg! It was great! On my actual birthday, Carlyn and I got to hang out all day, and then we went and got gelato. Carlyn very rarely gets something so sweet, and when she does, she doesn't really like it...she'd rather be eating pasta! BUT...she LOVED the gelato! We shared, and she kept handing me her spoon and saying more, and then as soon as she would stick the spoon in her mouth (all by herself, may I add) she would say "Mmmmm"! The day ended with dinner at my moms and dads! It was a great way to spend my birthday!

Easter 2010

Easter was so fun this year! We started out by hearing a great service at church, then headed to my mom's for some lunch and easter egg hunting! My mom wasn't sure what to put in the eggs...but finally decided on quarters! She figured she was to young for candy, but she LOVES her piggy bank, so that's what she did! It worked out great! She loved opening the eggs, and then carefully putting the quarters in the piggy bank! After that we went to Jason's Nana's for MORE food! Carlyn finally passed out! It was such a great day!

My Beautiful little girl in her Easter dress!

I love this picture because she was showing Jason her bunny!

She got the hang of picking up eggs and putting them in the basket very quickly!

She kept tripping on her dress when she would crawl...so we tied it up!

As you can see...she is taking this VERY serious!...I still do that with my tongue when I am trying to concentrate!

Waving her eggs around singing at the top of her lungs!

Passed out after a long day!
