And so it begins.......

Today at lunch was Carter's first (and not last) meltdown over food. I knew it would be a problem someday, but I was hoping not this soon. And I was hoping it would be over something like ice cream but it was over a tuna sandwich. He saw me eating and he wanted a bite. Even though he had his favorite chicken and carrots on his tray. He wanted my tuna fish sandwich and not even his own slice of milk free bread would compensate. It started out as whining, which gave way to crying, and then the wailing and gnashing of teeth began. It got ugly before it got better. Tears were shed: big, rolling tears. All over a Tuna fish sandwich. Luckily I finally found some food that was better than my sandwich and the crying stopped.

Here's to many more meltdowns. Stupid allergies.

Here he is towards the end of the meltdown....

On a happier note..............the best part of spring/summer is BABY CANKLES! I love Carter's fat little legs. He was born with the skinniest chicken legs I have ever seen but they have developed into nice, plump appendages.

I love this little boy

Getting better at standing but still not crawling.......
Instead he can roll any direction, any angle. Naked or clothed.

He can now read his own bedtime stories..........he's a genius, what can I say?
Carter is quite vain.......doesn't matter what he is doing, as soon as the camera is whipped out, he stops and poses. It is hilarious. I'll try and record him on the video camera doing cute things, but as soon as he sees that thing he stops and cheeses it. Also loves to look at himself in the mirror and coos at the cute baby who smiles back!
