The Difference Between Girls and Boys

One guess what Carson is doing...

Halloween in August?

You'll be seeing these pictures again...But since naptime here was VERY short for one and non existent for the other the Halloween costumes arriving provided some much needed entertainment. Who buys Halloween costumes in August anyway?

Yogurt Facial

Ever tried it? (must click on picture to see full detail!)

Haircut

For those of you back home...We finally cut Carson's hair. Yeah! Except...this is what it now looks like in the morning!

"Frustrated"

"Mommy, since police cars have other cars, but fire trucks and ambulances don't, I get frustrated when I see firetrucks and ambulances at a store because I don't know if they are there to buy groceries or if someone needed help."

Frustrated, really?

Translation: Mommy traumatized Morgan by making her watch a Care Flight helicopter land in the park a couple weeks ago. Now the questions regarding police cars, fire trucks, ambulances and even construction and city utility vehicles with lights have doubled! And if any of these have lights on - watch out!

Vacation Recovery

So I now know that Morgan has flown too often in her young life since she started playing "security" this afternoon at home! She also had to remind Chris when he was going to buy a Diet Coke for us to share and a bottle of water for her that she couldn't drink the pop, she could only drink water and she wouldn't be able to finish all of the water before we went through security so he should just buy the water for us all to share. Oh my!!

Anyway, we're home from 8 days in Michigan. We had an awesome time with gorgeous weather almost all of the time! Chris, my dad, his best friend Clark, Morgan and I went sailing on Lake Michigan and she was a trooper. I think my dad and Clark were thrilled to see that she was a natural! And no one even got sea sick... We also went to the beach twice and Carson has now convinced us to get a sand box for the back yard for when the weather cools off. He LOVED the sand! It won't be quite the same without the sound of the lake in the background...but it should do! I wish I could say another highlight of the trip was another beautiful aspect of Michigan that we don't have in Texas - but no - it was the Barbie Jeep that Chris' parents borrowed from some friends for Morgan! I think she spent 50% of her time in it! And Carson loved it too, but Morgan had to learn fast that he liked to get in and out a lot! Amazingly, his foot was only run over one time!

And in case anyone is wondering...Carson's behavior on the plane was just as expected - CRAZY!! I was shocked at his ability to scale the seat in the airplane and almost land in the lap of the lady sitting behind me...Should I call that athleticism?
