Cute Kid Pics!!

We are so excited because Emery is finally starting to 'creep' on her hands and knees!!  Now let me explain.  She has been 'crawling' since she was nine months.  Crawling is technically commando style on her stomach.  Creeping is on her hands and knees.  Those are terms you become more familiar with when you have a special needs child.  We have learned alot since Emery was born.  So now at 15 months she is creeping up on all fours!!  This is a huge developmental step for our baby Emery.  We are so proud of her!!  She is pulling up on everything and wants to stand.  She is a determined little girl!

Snow!!

Snow is beautiful!!  Carson loved playing in the snow except he did not have water proof cloves.  His poor hands were freezing.  He was so excited about building a snowman.  He did not care that his snowman was shorter than he was.  Too funny!!





Thanksgiving

This year we spent Thanksgiving in Waco with my family. It was great because Justin's mom joined us. We all had a nice relaxing time together. There is just so much to be thankful for this year!

Carson's Birthday Party!!

We decided that this year would be the first year to throw Carson a big birthday party.  Carson loves every sport so we went with a "BALL" party.  The party was at our church gymnasium and we had every kind of ball imaginable.  We had soccer balls, basket balls, footballs, beach balls, tennis balls, and more.  There were little kid basketball goals, a soccer goal, a football tee, and bowling.  We had fun with a parachute, the kids had a big race, and we also had a pinata full of candy.  I think the kids favorite was the parachute, they knew exactly what to do and they all went crazy throwing the balls around.  The kids had a wonderful time!!  The party went better than expected.  Carson has great friends and we were so glad that so many were able to celebrate with us.  Thank you to my entire family for helping put it all together!  We are so proud of Carson.  He is growing up to be such a great boy!

Carson Turns 3!!!

Three years old is the age when kids first start to understand that it is their birthday.  Carson was so excited that it was his birthday and that he would be getting presents.  One night I heard him in bed singing Happy Birthday to himself.  It is so cute!  We first celebrated his birthday with family at Chuck-E-Cheese.  Carson and his cousins had so much fun.  We could have stopped there and Carson would have been great.  But of course this was the year I decided to do a big birthday party.  It was work but it was worth it!!  More to come on that later.
