oh my...time is flying!

emerson and her best girlfriend lauren...they are so sweet together


Let's see...what have we been up to? Not much really, just been hanging out with friends, going to the park, and cleaning out all the junk in the house. Since the last post I want to say that carter is sleeping great! He hasn't cried when going to sleep in weeks. He takes two 2 hour long naps and then goes to bed at 6:30. We are very lucky that he figured it out so quickly. Also he loves to eat real people food. He has been eating cereal with prunes once a day and tonight he tried squash and loved it. This is the complete opposite of emerson...she didn't like/get eating until she was about 7 months. He has almost mastered sitting and is getting up on all fours, but not mobile yet (except for rolling EVERYWHERE).
Emerson has quite the imagination and talks to everything as if it were a person. She will be sitting eating lunch and start talking to her water bottle saying, "oh water, you are getting so tall. let me pick you up girl. oh water did you have a bonk? let me kiss it. it's ok sweet girl, you'll be ok." then she'll start rocking her water and say, "mommy you need to be very quiet because water needs to have a nap." I thought it was cute when she would do this with her babies, but now she will pretend anything/everything is real...it makes nick and I laugh. She is just so sweet and loving to all her stuff.
I can't believe July is almost over! I will say that we are having a lot of fun hanging out as a family and enjoying being outdoors.
