Back to School...and the Many faces of Carter :)

Not much to say about this... what a face!
"Mom and Dad, do you really think this wall of pillows is gonna hold me back? Come on... who are you kidding?"
"Watch out Lucky... here I come!"
"Do I have something on my face?"
"Hey guys.... how's it goin'?"
Back to school we go!
Andy and I have been in teacher in-service for the past week and a half, and we start classes Monday! (Andy's actually been doing coaching stuff for a few weeks now.) I think we are both looking forward to seeing our new students and getting the year underway, despite the fact that the summer just flew by.
Carter has readjusted to daycare pretty easily, but I don't think they were expecting or ready for what they got when he returned. They tell me everyday how fast and far he crawls. (He's like lightning) He likes to visit kids in various classrooms, and the other teachers welcome him with open arms :) They say he finds his way in and out of all kinds of spaces, and they think he is so funny... a complete handful... but really funny.
It has been tough not seeing him throughout the day, but it definitely gives us something to look forward to...
Ooooppppsss... got to go... Carter somehow found a way out of the barricade I put up for him... What a little stinker! CARTER... COME BACK HERE!!! :):):)

Summer Fun!!! It has been a great few months!!!

Carter is crawling everywhere now... we put up pillow barracades, but he just looks at us and laughs and then crawls right over them... What a boy!
The tickle monster attaks again!!!!
Carter and his great friend Nico... Carter taught Nico to crawl and Nico taught Carter to sit... It was amazing... such cute little friends!
Beautiful picture of the Canadian Lake the boys went to. They spent 4 days there and did nothing but fish and enjoy the great outdoors. It rained a lot, but they ate well and got to act like men... Grrrrrrrrr :)


Summer has flown by, but it has been such a blast! The last part of our break was spent with friends and family. Andy went on a fishing trip to Canada with the men in his family, and I went to Seguin and Austin to see my parents and close friends. Carter was incredible and had a great time with everyone. He swam a lot with his friend Nico and at his Auntie Brenda's house. My mom and dad LOVED having him, and he gave them lots and lots of smiles. All in all this was a fantastic summer!
