Happy 1st BIRTHDAY Carson

Happy 1st Birthday Carson!!!

He turned 1 on September 28th. I can't believe it has been an entire year already. He has grown up so fast and has learned so much. I remember the night I went into labor. It was right after my grandma's birthday party. Every year we go on a hayride for her birthday. A few hours later Chris and I were home and my water broke! It was kind of weird going on the hayride this year remembering what happened just 1 year ago. It was pretty cold on the hayride but Carson enjoyed it. We bring lots of treats for the ride, it is pretty fun.

He has been walking for 2 months already so he is pretty good. One of his favorite things to do is get chased. He can actually run away. It is so cute. One night we were both almost sweating. We could do that all night. He runs away and hides and we have to find him. He thinks it is so funny. He still loves to be outside, the cold doesn't seem to bother him. He loves to walk around by the tractors and cows. He is very curious and needs to check everything out and lots of times taste it, like below. He found a mole hole in our yard. That's all he wanted to play with, so I let him, until he started eating the dirt. He didn't think that tasted so good. That was another time he went straight to the tub. He had fun though. Boys will be boys right?

Carson always needs something in his mouth. He loves this string. He will find it and put it right in his mouth and continue playing with the string hanging out of his mouth.

One morning the County was fixing the culvert across the road. There were a bunch of dump trucks, bulldosers, and other big, loud equipment. Carson loves watching things like that. We watched out the window a lot that morning and then we sat outside for awhile watching them. Great entertainment!
