He loves Mummy

We're having a great October so far here in the desert. The weather has turned around and it feels so good to go out for walks during the day without feeling like you have 100 hair dryers blowing on you at all times. October is always a gorgeous month here in Vegas.

We just wrapped up a weekend visit with Carson's Grandma Barbie and it was fabulous. Carson had so much fun playing with her, as always! Next weekend, we are road tripping to Huntington Beach, CA to see our good friends Deana and Jason Bickler. It will be the Stinky Fish's first trip to the beach! The weekend after that, we have a visit coming from Carson's Grandma Caryn. What a fun month of adventures for our little guy!

While Carson's girlfriend Avery lives in Spain, he hangs out with his other girlfriend, Angelina, who lives down the street from us. Angelina and Carson met in breastfeeding class and have been good buddies ever since. They've now slept through a couple of closely supervised dates....you've gotta watch kids these days....:)

Carson and his Grandma - Thanks for the wonderful visit Barb! We loved having you here with us!

Now that it's October, we are busting out our Halloween outfits. Here Carson models his "I Love Mummy" outfit from Auntie Lisa Kasten, including mummy booties on his feet. Could he be any cuter, really?

In other developments this week, I got together with my neighbor Courtnee on Sunday and we made our own baby food. As a result, Carson now eats sweet potatoes, with avocados next on the list of foods for him to try. So far, he has loved everything he's tasted. Also, this weekend brought the arrival of yet another bottom tooth in his mouth. This one must really hurt because he has been fussy for a few days now. Poor guy! His room is now stocked with baby orajel, teething tablets, and baby tylenol. But even his "bad" days are my best days ever! We love this little munchkin more than words could ever say!!
