7 month wonder boy

Our little Stinky Fish is fascinated with anything and everything.

Every day that he wakes up, he is bigger, stronger, and more curious than the previous day.

I am amazed every day by his development and Jason and I are in love with the utter perfection and brilliance of this little boy. Being his mommy is the best job there is!

This love fest that I am having right now must have something to do with the fact that I have slept 8 HOURS... 3 DAYS IN A ROW. Carson is on a roll. He slept 10 hours last night, woke up at 5 and ate, and then went back to sleep for another 1.5 hours.

He is trying to crawl, and the fact that he hasn't yet has much to do with this errant left leg of his that gets stuck underneath him as he tries to move forward. If not for this left leg, we would have a little mover. I think in a few more weeks, we will have a creepy crawler in our house.

We have also found another food that Carson loves...yogurt! He eats it up like it's going out of style. One of his faves is yogurt, mixed with bananas and avocado. Sounds disgusting...I know....but he is lovin' it.

Below are some pics from our incredibly fun play time this morning.

Below....the errant left leg I was talking about is pictured.

One of his favorite toys is this Hawkeye Dinosaur that GB bought for him. It is the most incredibly random toy that you can imagine, mainly because when you turn it on, it roams the house aimlessly, playing techno music. He stares as it "oons oons oonses" all around the house.

Another favorite of Carson's is this literary wonder called "Moo, Baa, La La La". It is by his favorite author, Sandra Boynton, also the author of Carson's revered bathtime book that him and daddy read religiously every night. When the dog says "bow wow wow", he goes ballistic!

It's his favorite part.

Carson level of curiosity is waaayyy up from last month. He is curious about everything and wants to touch, taste, feel, lick, scratch, and pull most everything in our house. Including my hair. And his daddy's nose. And if he could just get to that Christmas tree......




The only constant is change, especially when it comes to Carson's hair.

His mullet has all but disappeared, leaving TONS of wispy, white blonde hair on his head that sticks straight up. Unless we put gel in it, it sticks up hopelessly. It reminds me of Carson's Aunt Annon, age 10, who was born with a full head of hair that nothing could tame....not gel....not Vaseline.....which remained for months and months until it was long enough to lay down.
Gel works on his....but untamed, it is pretty hilarious!
