Carson: Age 1

Carson is a year old already! Actually 13 months now since I'm so behind at blogging... We had some adorable pictures taken for his birthday and he had a combined waffle party with Molly that he thoroughly!

At 1 year Carson:

• Weighs 21 lbs 11 oz and is 31.5 inches tall
• Has almost 8 teeth (two of them are still just barely cut through)
• Wears 12-18 month clothes and size 3/4 diapers
• Sleeps so great at night - about 12.5 hours and now takes one nap a day for about 2 hours
• Started walking really well the week after his birthday and loves to walk the circle around our living room and kitchen
• Can climb up the playground and go down the slides on his belly all by himself.  He is a daredevil and scares mommy!
• Was diagnosed with a peanut allergy and now has to carry around an epi pen.  He likes Sunflower butter though so it makes o difference to him
• Loves his pacifiers and sleeps with 3 in his crib.  He no longer needs them during the day (except at church to keep him quiet)
• Copies our actions really well... he folds his arms at prayer time and knows what all our household objects are for
• Still only knows a few words, but is very good at communicating via grunts and squeals
• Likes to talk on the phone
• Likes to eat bread and fruit, but does not like water at all
• Loves playing outside and will stand at the back door begging to go out
• Can play the kazoo better than anyone else in our family
• Loves to make us laugh and has the cutest facial expressions

We can't imagine life without Carson! Happy Birthday Buddy!

Here are some more pictures from the past couple months:
