Happy St. Patty's Day!

Celebrating St. Patrick's Day

Mom, can we go now?

Carter and I ventured to Target yesterday to grocery shop and buy a few other items, but I couldn't pass up walking through the discount aisle at the front of the store. I saw this cute green Lucky Charm shirt that was only $1, so I knew I couldn't pass it up. I figured he could wear it today to school to be festive for St. Patrick's Day. Like any good Alpha Chi knows, you don't wear a new t-shirt before you wash it...so I came home and threw it in the wash with a couple of other things. Lo, and behold, $1 shirts shrink quickly! When I showed Nick the shirt out of the dryer last night, he asked if Carter was going to be showing some midriff at school today. A long sleeve onesie underneath to keep the little fella warm solved that problem! I am sure this is about the last time I will be able to pull this off...next St. Patrick's Day, I am sure he will have a definite opinion about what he should wear!

(P.S. Sorry that the pictures aren't so great...I snapped them on the way out the door to work this morning!)

Play date with Miles

The Habegger family was nice enough to invite us over for dinner on Sunday night, so Carter and Miles had a little play date. It was fun to get to see them interact. Carter really liked Miles' new ball, and Miles was very nice to share. Thanks to the Habeggers for a yummy dinner and a fun night!

These pictures are just some fun pics of Carter sitting on Nick's lap interested in ESPN!

Fun with Carrots and Cups

So, Carter has figured out that if you swat at the spoon, it sends the food flying. This makes for a much more entertaining dinner time--at least for him!

Carrots are fun to wear, too!

Mom, look! Now I can play with the carrots.

These paper cups provide lots of entertainment

They taste good, too.

Nick's New Look

Nick decided to forgo shaving while we were in Jackson Hole on vacation. Upon our return to Indy, I said that I liked the rugged look of his beard and asked him to keep it for a little bit. A little hesitantly, Nick decided to keep it for just one more week, since he would be starting a new job after that. (Quick aside: for those who don't know, Nick re-joined Regions Bank here in Indy on Monday.) So, last Sunday, I was downstairs when he went upstairs to shave it off. After a little while, he called me upstairs and this is what I saw. I couldn't stop laughing so I had to share it with y'all.

Trying Hard!

Carter wanted to show off his latest move...or at least his attempt at a new move. He appears to want to become more mobile than simply rolling around.
