I feel so blessed to be a mom to such a wonderful boy like Carter. He is such a joy in our life and I can't imagine not having him. He has grown so big. He is constantly doing little things that make us laugh and discovering new things he can do. He is really starting to repeat different words he hears us saying and I love hearing his cute little words and phrases. I just love him to pieces and nothing makes me happier than when he calls me mom or gives me hugs. He still hasn't figured out how to give kisses and still when we ask for them just blows kisses or puts his hand up to our mouth for us to blow a kiss. Cute in it's own way. I sure love being your mom Carter!
Mother's Day weekend was also the weekend of the tour for our brand new hospital. My parents and Lance's parents came up for the weekend for a visit and to come see where I'd be working. It was really fun to have them all there! Here's a picture with one of my friends from work with our new nurses desk behind us.
When my parents, Lance, and Carter got up to the NICU part of their group tour, I was giving my little spiel about our new NICU to the group when Carter realized it was mommy who was talking. He came walking up through the group right too me. The other people in the group were a little surprised at how friendly he was, until they found out he was my kid. Here's a picture with Carter and I infront of one of the new rooms. They're all individual rooms that are tons bigger than our old unit! It's going to be nice!
Carter loved having all his grandparents here. We sure love Lance's parents and are especially grateful to have such a wonderful and loving mom and grandma.
I love his face in this picture.
My parents had headed home Saturday. On Sunday we went up to Lance's sister's house for a nice dinner with his parents and his other sister and her family. I had decided since we'd be over half way to my parents house Carter and I would continue on and go and surprise my mom for Mother's day and spent a few nights up there. My dad knew we were coming but my mom had no idea. It was really fun when we got there because they were in another room and didn't know we had gotten there. Carter walked over to the door and pushed it open. My mom was so surprised and excited! The next day we took a trip out to the local dairy. I always love getting their chocolate milk when I'm there, best chocolate milk ever! We took Carter around to see the baby calves. He was excited to watch them and was upset when it was time to leave, it was a rainy and cold day. This boy loves being outside and he doesn't care how cold or yucky the weather is.
Carter had lots of fun with the old Fisher Price Train and mom's shoes.
He always loves playing in the lockers at my parents house. He kept opening them and saying "boo" or "see you."
He even tried closing himself in one of the lockers that was full of stuff.
I climbed in one time with him and after that he kept shutting me in. When I'd get out he'd grab my hand and take me back over into the locker. He is such a funny boy!
This weekend Carter also started saying grandpa, sounding more like "bam-pa." We sure love my parents. I'm especially glad to have such an amazing mother who is so caring and loving. She is always willing to help us out whenever she can and I love being able to call and talk to her whenever I need to.
