sleeping...

So, Carson had two nights in a row where he only woke-up twice! I thought I was the luckiest mom in the world, but then last night struck. Lets recount the amount I was able to sleep shall we? 10:30-12:15, 3:30-4:20, then, luckily 6:00-8:00. He wasn't cranky or anything. He just thought he was hungry all night long and wanted to be up hanging out with mom.So we ended up watching a few episodes of House Hunters and as luck would have it there was a House marathon on USA. It is 12:25 in the afternoon now and he has yet to take his morning nap, and that means no nap for me either. I'd post a picture, but I am too tired... Isn't being a mom fun?

Time for a change...

So I finally did it. I've been talking about doing it for so long and I finally got up the courage... I cut my hair! I haven't had a drastic change since the early years of college. 8 inches!! There was so much hair on the floor. Too bad it wasn't just 2 inches more, then I could have donated it. Oh well, I wasn't going to go any shorter. It feels so good, and now it won't take me an hour to blow dry and straighten. So what do you think???

Carson is so funny. He somehow figured out how to wiggle his little thumb out of his hand covering thingy.

Steve went to an early sacrament meeting today so he could stay home with Carson while I went to ours. It was so nice to go to church after missing for a few weeks. It seems like everyone and their kids have the flu right now. I'm glad we kept Carson at home. Here is son and dad rocking in the rocking chair. Carson decided to pacify himself by sucking on his entire fist. Such a cute boy!

There is always time for Christmas decorations!

Things have been really busy with a new baby, but that would not stop us from decorating for Christmas! I'll admit we didn't go all out this year, but at least it feels like Christmas now inside and outside of our house.

Two Week Check-up

Carson had his two week check-up on Wednesday. He is 8 lbs and 21 1/2 inches. I can't believe he grew 1 1/2 inches in two weeks! Yesterday we took him to get newborn pictures taken. He was such a good boy and his pictures turned out adorable! I get to pick them up next week, then I'll put them on the blog. He really is a good baby. He is very content and happy. We are still struggling with eating at night and I am not getting a lot of sleep, but other then that things are great.
