We're on our way

Today I removed my IUD - because we want to start trying for Baby Carter #3!! I am so totally excited and the best part is that Halsy is excited too (especially since it was his idea). Hopefully we will have fun news to share in the next few months!!

Climbing

Well, its official, Katey Jane is attempting to climb out of her crib. Luckily we saw her trying while we were reading bedtime stories and was able to  fix it before we experienced a fall :) That is so crazy that she is at that age already - what a big girl we have on our hands. She is looking so grown up these days, more like a little lady and less like a baby. She says Mama all the time and today was yelling at me from her bed at nap time. It was too cute! I love it when I am in another part of the house and I hear her little voice "MAMA!!" and then she smiles when she finds me. Oh man I Luv this girl!

Daddy Doctor and Mr. Incredible

We were at the doctor yesterday visiting Dr. Palmer for Cameron's cough. While Dr. Palmer was talking to me about how to help him get better, Cameron came out with this:

"Dr. Palmer, did you know my daddy is going to be a doctor too?"

I was super impressed he even knew that and that he thought to tell another doctor too - he was also very impressed with himself, it was totally cute. Dr. Palmer was very excited for us. He has been both my babies doctor and he was my pediatrician when I was a baby. We just love Dr. Palmer!



Today we stayed in bed late and watched a movie - it was really fun to do. I made the kiddos breakfast in bed and we watched The Incredibles together. I also got some very needed phone calls checked off my list while they were engrossed! While we were watching Cameron said, "Who is Mr. Con-creb-ital married to?" I died.......I have already asked him to say it again like four times! Ahhhhhh.......love this kid.

My Man Sweater

We went to meet Jerry at the mall to go shoe shopping and out to lunch. When we arrived, Jerry was helping Cam out of his car seat and the following conversation happened:

Jerry: Wow Cam you look so handsome today.

Cameron: Thanks, this is my Man Sweater.

Jerry: *laughed* and said, well I really like it.


I think he got it from me telling him that he looks so grown up in his sweater every time he wears it!! I love his little mind!

Halsy's Pinning Ceremony

Halsy is no longer a STUDENT, he is an INTERN. Which means he works in the clinic treating other students and faculty members. Soon he will be treating the general public - so come on down!! He need to log a certain amount of visits for graduation and we will need lots of help!

We got to go to his school and watch him get his pin! We were totally late of course and everyone watched as this trail of about 15 people winded to the back to nab the seats that my uncle was saving for us! I was in heaven being there. It made all the work seem like there was a marker of achievement, accomplishment, time. Halsy looks so handsome in his white coat! We all (especially me) couldn't stop smiling. I was starting to feel like this was really going to happen!!



Halsy took us all on a tour of the school and then we went out to dinner to celebrate! It was a really fun day - Halsy was even amazed that the smile never left my face and that I couldn't stop kissing him :)

I am so proud of us and I am getting more and more excited/nervous for what is coming in the next two years!

Little Girl

We hear little words coming for the cutest lips you've ever seen almost daily now! Miss KJ is talking folks! She says:
Mama, Da, Gigi, Gampa, Hi, Bye, Wow, and K. We flip out every time - we can't help it. Halsy is trying to hard to get a Dada, but we are happy so far with Da. She babbles things all the time and is pointing and getting excited - so we know she will be talking our ears off soon!



She gives high fives and pound it's. She is starting to run to catch her big brother. She is such a cuddle bug and we love it! She is getting quite fiesty at diaper changing and changing of the clothes.....also - she is pulling out her piggy tails now too! Grrrrrrrrr. Hopefully her hair will grow long soon! She is a book devourer - she will sit on your lap and read book after book......she gets so excited at each one!

she loves to eat paper!! Any kind - computer, cardstock, cardboard, books, ANYTHING. I catch her hiding all over the house with paper eating away! It is so funny and totally weird. Stinker. We have at least 3 books with little KJ teeth marks on the corners now.
We love our girl!
