20 months

Carter is almost 20 months now. I can't say he's growing like a weed because for once in his life, he isn't growing(much). He is practically the same size and is only 1 pound heavier than at 1 year old. In his infant days he seemed to gain a pound a day! He's wearing the same pants as he did last winter. How's that for getting your money's worth?! He is still about a head taller than most of his friends but maybe they will eventually catch up to him.


I found this treasure at the DI and it has been the best 2 dollars I have ever spent. After a little bath and clorox this baby is as good as new. This is by far his favorite toy and his Little People animals and tractor from Christmas compliment this nicely. He always makes the animals knock at the doors before they can enter and even welcomes them with a "come in." I love it!

He still loves to swim (especially with daddy) and has learned how to jump off the edge. Actually it's more just falling but he yells "jump."
His favorite thing to do is climb in and out of the water but when he's in he will put his head under and will swim unassisted for about 8 seconds. He moves his arms nicely but can't quite figure how to make his legs move him!

I recently gave Carter his first taste of Popcorn. (I know its a choking hazard but we're careful). He loves it and his mommy loves it as well. Carter is not a cuddler but will cuddle up on the couch with me if I am holding a bowl of popcorn. He's not a fan of TV either(sadly for me) but will watch a show with me if I am holding popcorn. The best part of microwave popcorn.....made with fake butter so Carter can safely eat it!

Yay for popcorn! We enjoy lots of it around here too. And Carter's swimming just amazes me! 8 second unassisted is seriously unbelievable. Maybe it's in his genes... wasn't his dad a swimmer?

Another treat that Carter can eat. Hooray! I'm not sure that Papa will be able to give up his butter though. Maybe for Carter.

Cute pictures! We'll have to take the kids to the pool this summer! I'm SO glad he gets popcorn!
