5 Months!


Oh how I love this little man!!! I am only 10 days late on this post, but I just have so many things that I would love to write about him. To keep it shorter than a novel I will just try to list the new and so cute things that Carsen is doing and learning all the time!! He is learning so fast and is so observant.
Carsen is such a sweet baby and so happy!! We feel so blessed to have him in our family!
~He is such a loving little boy! He will always give me hugs and kisses after I feed him, like a little thank you.
~He smiles at everyone and laughs all the time
~He loves to watch people (gets that from his momma!) especially little kids close to his own size
~He has so many little rolls, I love them all!
~He has learned to roll from belly to back (but doesn't really understand why we cheer for him)
~He loves loves loves his daddy!
~He really likes Oatmeal w/bananas and Sweet Potatoes, but not rice cereal
~Hates a bottle but likes a sippy cup
~He is growing lots of very very blonde hair and has 2 little cowlick's that make it go into a fohawk with no other choice! so cute
~He sleeps so much better in his swaddle wrap
~He isn't sleeping through the night yet (he used to)....we're working on it. ANY SUGGESTIONS???
~Loves to stare at his hand then bring it down to his binky then pull it out and most of the time can get it back in
~He is so loud when you get him talking or if you help him make the "ba ba ba" noise (bop-pa taught him that one )
~His feet are still the only thing not really chubby! so funny!
~No teeth yet, although he drools like crazy and chews on everything.
~He is so patient with me trying to learn what he likes and wants.
~His smile makes everything better!!!
~He loves his books and has started liking to grab and turn the pages
~He loves music and cracks up to the song "Hakuna Matata"

There are so many things that are not on this list that I could go on and on, but to sum it up.....we are so thankful to our Heavenly Father for sending us such a special little boy with such a sweet spirit. We love you Bug-a-boo!!

I would have never guessed he had so many cute rolls. I love the pictures of him in his diaper. When he is dressed up on sunday he just looks like a big kid. Good luck with the night sleeping, he may just be working on a little teething and its making him wake up in the night.

I couldn't agree more your list of things we love about our little boy. My favorite part of the day is giving him his bath. He has such a fun time splashing and getting me all wet.
Thanks, Heather for all you do for our little boy! We love you!

Awww. What a sweet little thing. He's quite the charmer for sure. You guys are such a cute little family!

Well, he is definitely your guys' child! I can't determine who he looks like more! But he sure is cute! I wish I could help you with the sleeping thing. After putting a flat pillow in Grace's bed she slept really well, then she started teething and it's been a battle nearly every time. Good luck!
