A Week Off With Mommy......





Wow! What a week! As you all read from my post last time, my mommy was on vacation this past week and she had lots of fun things planned for us. She woke up Saturday morning, sick! Not just a cold sick, but sick sick! We had planned to go with my "harem" (that's my GiGi, NaNa, Ju-Ju, and Beck-Beck-these ladies are my great-aunts) to Villa Rica for my great-great aunt Lyndall's birthday party, so GiGi came and got me and took me so that my mommy could rest. Boy, did we have a time there! I saw some family that I don't get to see everyday, even my cousin Julia, who's mouth I stuck my finger in...her daddy said that I should feel around for any new teeth she might have and just laughed. I was just offering her my finger, since it helps when my teeth are hurting.


Speaking of teeth, this has been a big week for teeth. I grew 3 new teeth just this week. Pretty soon I'll be ready for my first steak!


Since Mommy and I stayed home a lot this week, it gave me the chance to perfect my most excellent walking skills. Before now, I have just walked around the house, may be across the room or so, but now I walk everywhere. Mommy and Daddy have tried to video me doing this but I seem to cry or instantly want to crawl. How 'bout that?


I also received some good news this week...my Carol is coming! You see, my Carol is my great-aunt who lives in Charlotte. She is very busy being a PhD so she doesn't get down here but every so often, so when she comes home, it's a big deal. She's coming in Wednesday and I am so excited. It has been since Christmas since I have seen her, and I have really changed. I cann't wait to show her my most excellent walking skills. I'm sure we will have lots of fun adventures this week.


One last thing...tonight I discovered that pee-pee comes out of my goobie! This was startling to me because I usually just go in my diaper, but tonight I was in the bathtub when the urge hit me. I just started pee-peeing and looked down to see a stream of liquid coming out of my goobie! This had me confused, then intrigued! How cool!


Well, that's it for now. I must get upstairs and go to bed. Tomorrow I go back to my GiGi's house and she tells me that I have some new toys at her house to play with, so I need all of my strength and energy for that. Ta-ta for now!


Love ya,


Carson

Welcome to My Blog


Welcome to my blog! I created this blog with my mommy's help to keep all of my friends and family up to date on my learning and growing. Each day I do something new or notice something about the world that I didn't notice yesterday. Let me tell you about ME!


My name is Carson Robert Beard. I am 13 months old and full of energy. I keep my mommy and daddy on their toes. These days, I'm learning to walk, so there is never a dull moment. I started with just a few steps and now I can make it across an entire room. I am so very proud of myself.


I am also teething, yet again. This time I am cutting molars this time, so it more miserable than usual. My upper left middle molar is all the way through the gum and more are to come. Most days I can chew my way through the pain but the other night, it was just too much. I woke up in pain and was inconsolable, so Mommy and Daddy found Bee Movie on TiVo and we all sat up and watched it until the pain went away and I went back to sleep.


I am SO excited that my mommy is off of work this entire week, so we get to stay home together and play. I wonder what she has planned for me? We'll have to wait and see! I'll keep you posted!


Love Ya,

Carson
