August 2010

The month was pretty relaxed (at least for me and the boys) after we got home from vacation. Here are a few things we did.
Kade just loves to be a part of whatever we are doing.
He rolled over for the first time. It took me a couple of weeks to get it on film though.

When I went in to check on the boys on night, they were lying in exactly the same position. I ran to get my camera but Chyler had moved Carson before I got back. Don't ask me why Carson is still in his clothes, he must have fallen asleep before getting ready for bed and I didn't want to wake him. I love sleeping babies.

Kade and I were playing before church, I love his expression in this picture. I had just bought this outfit.

Kade also started sitting up on his own, I love when babies get to this stage, I think it is so cute.

Kade looking way too comfortable in my bed.

Carson needed both monkeys to go to bed.

The biggest thing I accomplished in August was preserving 25 pounds of peaches. I made 3 batches of freezer jam, 2 ice cube trays of popsicles/baby food, 7 Gerber containers of baby food, 1 batch of syrup, and canned four bottles. It was my first time canning and I felt totally inadequate not to mention that I'm sure my mom got sick of me calling. But after a week of peaches, I was totally exhausted and I was so sick of them that I didn't even eat one peach.

We had planned on taking Carson to his first movie (that he was old enough to watch) in Arizona but didn't get around to it. So we took him to Despicable Me at the end of August. We didn't know how either of them would do but they both did amazingly. Carson watched the whole thing and loved it.

He had to come down all by himself.
