Adventures with Carter

We were just hanging out and decided to take some pics of Carter....

He was being super cute....

Then all of a sudden we see this face.....

We hear a very bad noise and then Jared say he feels something on his leg. He pooped all over Jared and himself......

He thought that it was sooooo funny. :o)

2 months....

Carter is 2 months now! I can't believe how fast time is going. Well... there are times like in the middle of the night where I secretly wish we are already at the part where he sleeps through the night. :o) He is getting so fun though. He has a lot more personality and has been laughing, talking to us and has a super cute sad face with a pouty lip and all. I have been starting to work again... which has been a challenge to juggle Carter and a job. I am starting to slowly get this mothering thing down but still working on getting dressed, etc. I guess in a few months I will get better at all this. Being a mom has taught me how little I actually know about all this and this is a completely learn as you go job. It is super fulfilling though. Even when I am so tired and have poop and spitup all over me, when he gives me a gummy smile... it makes it all worth is and makes my heart melt. :o)

Carter's first Christmas

He fell asleep like this. :o)

He was missing all the action :o)

This is a funny picture.... we look like we are a little hillbilly family. :o)

Trying to take a picture in between him crying... he was hungry and done with picture taking. :o)

Sleeping with Daddy

Carter... I caught him smiling when he was trying to poop. :o) He was 3.5 weeks here.

Introducing Carter Isaiah Painter....

38 Weeks

Update: 70% effaced and 1 centimeter dilated. Hopefully I will continue to progress and have this little guy very soon. I am officially pretty desperate to get him out. Come on Carter!

37 weeks

Just got back from the doctors. Carter is head down and I am 50% effaced! I know that it doesn't mean much... but it gives me a little hope that he will come out soon.
