New Fun

Carter has recently discovered the joys of full on crawling. More and more when he's on the move we see him up on his hands and knees crawling. He still goes back to army crawling when it suits him or when he gets close to his desired destination. We've decided he looks so funny and compact crawling with his big round head. We also have found him lately "walking" along with his activity table as it slides along the floor. He looks very cute although all I can think about when I see it is that I'm NOT ready for him to walk yet!! Carter's trying to make a break for it! I realized a few days ago that we didn't have any balls for Carter. He was quit entranced with one at the sitters the other morning. So this past weekend, with my mom in town for a quick visit, we picked up a few balls. Carter absolutely loves them and doesn't get tired of chasing after them (Unless he passes the refrigerator which he always stops and pulls on the plastic cover that covers the bottom vent thing or whatever is down there. I don't think he really understands "no" yet but he has some understanding that he's not suppose to be playing with it because he'll look over his shoulder at us and get a big smile on his face. He also thinks it's hilarious to try and turn over when we're trying to get his diaper on - he just laughs and laughs. Anyways....off that tangent...) When we bounce the big ball on the floor he just laughs and laughs. We think it's pretty funny! These little balls he loves hitting together or on other things. Carter loves just batting the big ball and keeps hitting it over and over when he has it in a corner (so it doesn't roll away). He also tries to use it to stand up on. Most the time he actually does a pretty good job keeping his balance on it. Sunday it was still chilly so Carter wore his cute sweater to church. I worked the night before so I stayed home a slept and tried in vain to get a picture of him before they left. Carter was more interested in crawling and playing. So dad was nice and got a picture for me when they got home....although it doesn't look like Carter was very excited about it then either. On a side note, the little dino teething rattle in his lap has always been one of his favorite toys. Not sure why but it is.
