FOUR months old... your kidding...

He has such a WONDERFUL personality. always happy and always making the cutest noises and Faces
they sit like this a lot, carver wont do it will me anymore. but when daddy does it, he snuggles right in and is calm and mellow

I love his confused face, he is trying to figure out what the noise was in this pic ( it was roxy howling )

His first smile we caught on camera. yes it was just gas, but who cares it was adorable!

one of his first feedings home.

( I do not usually parade around in public with just a tank top on, I'm very conservative I hate even wearing shorts. but in my own home with just my husband and I, I let loose. who doesn't?? )

On the tenth of this month my BEAUTIFUL little son will be four months old. FOUR MONTHS. uhmm was I not just pregnant yesterday...?? I still cant believe the changes in him and our family. How he brought a new sense of love and happiness into our life, and how me and Danny just seem to work better as a couple and team since he has been here. A lot of people said I should have waited, should have been young and in love for awhile longer. But I never do things how people think I should (ask my mother) and I wasn't about to start. I LOVE my decision. I love that I have my son with me now. He truly in every aspect completes me.

Dad couldn't get enough of him. He melts my heart everyday when i see them together and see the love Danny has for our son.

after his first bath, so precious

the Family together for the first time

When they first gave Carver to me after he had been wrapped

(please excuse the acne, the bloating, the redness.. all you other women understand I'm sure)

he didn't cry until this moment, and i was lying over on the bed still. When i heard his little voice, i too started crying.

I love you me precious Carver Daniel Searle.

quiet time....

I love my life, and i love my baby and husband. But sometimes, my favorite time of the day is after carvers bedtime, and danny is on night shift and i have a few hours just to myself. to sit and and relax, cuddled up on the couch with a book. The television is never on at this time, no radio, no cd. Just me, a book and blanket. I used to take advantage of these moments before i got married or had Carver. But now i relish every second of this precious time! I think this counts as a lesson learned about mother hood, that lesson is cherish your down time, you might not always have it!

last week, we got about six inches of snow. im not too happy about it because i think snow after christmas is just wrong! but anyways, it was perfect snowball snowman snow!! so me and danny, using the kit carver got from his grandparents LeSueur, made a cute little snowman. It was the best little snowman in snow man history!!! we then decided carver needed his pic taken with this snowman so we wrapped him up in his blanket and rushed him outside for a few quick pics. The reason he looks so mad is he had just woken up from a nap, and its bright outside when there is a blanket of white on the ground!!! overall though, it was a very fun sunday afternoon!

cutest boy around

Carver was in a GREAT mood today, so i took advantage and we had another photo shoot, i need to get him in to do some pro ones, but these are so adorable in my opinion! enjoy!

p.s. the first pic wasnt part of the "photo shoot", but soooo adorable!!! his face is pricless!

today we had to go to the docs because carv has a cold and isnt kicking it... but he is fine no worries! but since i had to go out in public i did my hair and make up and of course did what is now becoming my favorite past time taking pics of me and carv!!

as a stay at home mom, i dont have much to do except clean up after danny and myself and take care of my baby. ok i made that sound simple and easy but we all know its not!! so yes i do occasionally take a moment to do mini rookie photoshoots, and since danny is always at work, and i hate taking pics of myself, that makes carver my victim!!!
