Giddy Up

Carson turned 28 months this week! He howled like a wolf at a football game, saw a puppet show and rode a pony at a festival! Little C seems smarter than ever; he says the whole abc song by himself and remembers everything you say!...even the word 'remember'. He enjoys mango ice cream cones, coloring and stickers, and 'running fast'. He likes to tell stories about what he did that day. He builds block castles then knocks them over and says 'boomies'! He also knows what he wants and when he wants it and says C'mon!

What time is it Carsy?...

..."Night Night...Not now soon soon!" That is a typical conversation before bedtime. Other new phrases are "Running fast?", "Car wash", "Carsy do it" and "Swimming pool". He loves raisins and making faces in the mirror, and also spotting himself in the TV monitors at the grocery store. He pointed out all the baby piggies at the zoo and copied the kangaroo who was hopping. He sang happy birthday to grandpa this week and put stickers on everyone. Most importantly though, he wants to walk by himself everywhere!!!!

"Carsy did it"

Our little toddler is getting so smart! He spotted a spider on the wall and started singing "Itsy Bitsy Spider". He loves music and singing. His new vocabulary includes: "open this", "hold it?", "right there", "found it!", "ice cream cone" and "Carsy did it". He also tries to put real sentences together which is cute. Recently he swam in the pool, played hockey and still loves the sprinklers at the park. Carsy runs everywhere and also enjoys racing his toy cars. His favorite shows are Bubble Guppies and Go Diego Go and he brings us books to read every night before bed.

Mr.Monkey

Little 'C' is getting braver by the day... he had a blast climbing and sliding at Monkey Joe's and spotting all the animals at Tiger World. He tries to say full sentences and has added the FreshBeat Band to his list of favorite shows. Another new favorite is the movie series 'Cars'. He uses his bottle less and less and has mastered using a spoon and fork. He also repeats almost everything he hears!

Beach Beach and more Beach

Carsy's words of the week are 'sea shells', 'seat belt' and 'scary'. He's getting so brave at the beach and is starting to love the water as much as he does in his bath. He is also very energetic and runs everywhere, and he loves to sing to himself and his family.

Cute Carsy

Carson can drink from a straw! Way to go buddy! He is a curious little chatterbox, and enjoys, among other things, saying the names of all his family members. He is a fruit, veggie, pasta and ice cream lover. Carsy is very outgoing and a great dancer, and has a quick left foot when he kicks a soccer ball. He likes Percy the train, Warehouse Mouse, reading and his 'wheels on the bus' book, all animals, building blocks and saying 'all aboard'! We love you buddy.

Beach Bum

Carsy loved digging in the sand, chasing seagulls and finding crab holes at Wrightsville beach. He's more talkative than ever and loves to sing Ring-Around-the-Rosy and If-You're-Happy-and-you-know-it. He's even starting to put short sentences together like 'it's ok TJ'.
