Our Weekend

My Best Friend, Alyson came up this weekend with her little boy, Dominick. He and Carson get along very well. They are so cute to watch! Although Dominick does speak a lot better than Carson (he's 9 months older), they really do communicate great! I can't get over how much Carson is talking lately. He repeats almost everything. Though, somethings are still hard to figure out unless you speak Carsoniese. I asked him today what he did with this sucker and he said "Trash Mama, Trash". Sure enough he thrown it in the trash.

Back to our weekend with Alyson...I don't know what I would have done without her here! I had to have her follow me to the dealer to pick up my car because they were supposed to service it and rotate my tires, though my tires were so bad that I had to replace them. So, first we had to take back the rental, pick up my car, go to 3 different tire places till I found the tires that my car needed. They last place STILL didn't have them but they went and picked them up in Princeton. Whew! They were expensive, but at least we got a free turkey. ;P

Then we took the boys to the mall. Carson unfortunately had to get a haircut at the mall. This would be the first time his Papa didn't cut it. But I was desperate and didn't want to have to drive an hour and half. I hope my dad understands. And dad, if you are reading this....you do a much better job!!

After the haircut we took the boys to the playground area at the mall. I really love to take Carson there when its cold outside. He really gets to run of some energy. And speaking of that...you should see that Dominick go!! It was really fun for them.

Carson really gives Jones a run for his money. LOL

Funny story....I was trying to get Carson to lay down after Dominick and Alyson left this morning. I could hear him in his room crying for me, so after awhile I looked out in the hall to check on him. There he was hanging on the gate to his room (it is much needed when he sleeps) with his cowboy hat on saying "E Haw, Mamma, E Haw". How could I be mad??? :)

BTW, for those of you who didn't know, Carson is now in a big boy bed. It works out great! I just transformed his baby bed to a day bed and added the railing, so he doesn't fall off. And then while he sleeps I put a baby gate at his door. When he is ready to go to bed he will get in bed all by himself now. He is such a big boy!!!
