Mid-Week Updates

Hello friends! Can you believe we only have 9 more days until Christmas is here???? I'm so excited! I love Christmas! This weekend, Brent and I plan on making Christmas candy & cookies that we can share with our family on Christmas Eve & Christmas Day.

I wish I could say Carter is excited for Christmas, but unfortunately he has no idea what it is yet! Although, he is fascinated with the Christmas tree & all the presents underneath it. He totally ignored the tree & left it alone until we put presents under it! Now, he's always yanking on ornaments & trying to rip open presents!

We got our first taste of "bad behavior" a couple nights ago. We gave Carter one of my old cell phones to play with b/c he LOVES phones. Well, he and Brent were playing on the floor and Carter had the phone and he kept putting it in his mouth. Brent kept telling him no, and after 3 times of doing it, Brent had enough. He sternly told him no, and Carter threw the phone across the floor and took off! He crawled really fast, like he was trying to get away from Brent! At first I thought it might have just been coincidental, but when Carter got a ornery little grin on his face afterward, I knew he knew exactly what he was doing. Boy are we in for some fun!

In other Carter news, he's pulling up to EVERYTHING now, and starting to cruise around things. He's also gotten to where he gives great big bear hugs and open-mouth kisses, it's so funny!

This Friday will be his last day going to daycare at Amy's house. We're very sad that Amy's hanging up her "daycare shoes" and we'll miss her lots! But we're also excited that Brent's mom is going to retire and begin watching Carter! Starting next week, he'll be going to G-ma Gibby's every day, except Wednesdays, when he'll be going to Meema Bryson's house. I'm very excited that Carter will get to spend so much time with both sets of grandparents. What a lucky boy he is! (Hopefully he doesn't get TOO spoiled!)
