DDDOOOOOOOG

Carter's most obvious word, other than dddaaaa (which is dad), is dog (pronounced by Carter as dddooooooog). He loves Charlotte a lot right now. He really likes when she gets crazy playful and is running all over but stopping by to get in his face. Carter thinks it's hilarious when Charlotte sniffs his mouth when he's walking around with food.

Tonight they were especially cute together. Right before bed time Charlotte was hanging out with us. Carter was doing a great job of petting her (instead of just hitting her). Carter always wants to sit right next to her and lean against her, but Charlotte always gets up right away when he does. Tonight though Carter was into trying to give her hugs. She sat still once and let him give her a huge hug. It was really, really cute. Then a few minutes later she tried to jump over Carter when he was sitting and totally took him out instead. He was a little shocked but got over it quickly and wanted to play some more. They are going to have lots of fun together this summer playing in the yard together!

I have not gotten many good pictures lately. We haven't been doing much away from the house with this cold, cold weather and Sarah was out of town for a week so that meant we were doing even less. And then I always seem to leave my camera upstairs when we're downstairs and vice versa so I never have it around when a good picture moment happens.

But here are a few pictures I've managed to get the last few days:

Happy Carter waking up from his nap ...


Eating Cheerios and sitting on his truck ...


Carter showing off his artistic skills ...


Carter has finally figured out how to use his sit 'n spin correctly. He can now turn himself around on it when sitting in the right direction (he used to only sit backwards and use his feet).
