We have teeth everyone. Carter has had his two bottom teeth for a little over a month now. Recently, he has gotten in 3 other top teeth. I haven't been able to get a picture of him showing his teeth until now. Didn't expect that once they started coming in they would come in so quickly. He had his 9 month check up last week and the doctor says he is doing fabulous. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that Carter didn't need to have any vaccinations this month. He is so much more aware now and I was dreading him getting his shots. So I can take a deep breath for a few months before I have to prepare myself for shots in July. :)

Proud Mommy
Friday, March 30, 2007
One day while at a friends house, Carter got a little scared from a loud noise. He quickly grabbed me by the shirt and pulled himself up. I thought it was just a fluke that he did it. Apparently, it was no fluke. Ever since, he has been pulling himself up using anything he can grab onto. I bought him a new toy, to celebrate the milestone. Right away, he pulled himself up to play with it. Check out the picture below.
Just Hanging Out with Friends
Monday, March 12, 2007
Carter and I went over to my friends house for a little play date. My friend Shelli's daughter is about 7 months and my friend Debbie's son is 8 1/2 months. Carter falls in the middle at 8 months. They had a great time together. Carter as you will see in the pictures always wants the toy that the other one has. Sharing is something I think we may have to work on. :)
Got Teeth anyone?
Carter hasn't been sleeping well throughout the night. We figured do to teething. This morning he finally allowed me to get my finger in his mouth to feel his gums and ah ha, there was a pearly white beginning to pop through. So that leads mommy to wonder, how long will this teething thing last? Is it an on again off again thing? Mommy needs some sleep!!!!! :)
What's that flash?
Jeff went to snap this picture of Carter and the flash happened to go off twice. The first one scared him so much that when the picture took, you can see the scared look on his face. It is Jeff's favorite picture of Carter. He thinks Carter's expression is priceless. 
New Happenings

Carter is getting quicker with his forward crawling now. Jeff was watching Carter as I washed dishes the other night and he watched as Carter crawled from one end of the living room to the other. Jeff was so amazed how quickly he picked up the pace that he could hardly contain himself. We no longer can put carter into his bouncy seats because he tips forwards trying to crawl out. He has moved into his bigger convertible car seat instead of the infant carrier. He has finally become steady enough sitting up that he can sit in a grocery cart. I am pleased to not have to carry the infant carrier any longer. It was getting too heavy. Carter is also pulling up from a crawl position back into a sitting position on his own. This has made my life a lot easier. He used to cry when he wanted to change positions. It is just so amazing how every day he accomplishes something new. :)
Moving on Up
Saturday, February 10, 2007
This video is actually from several weeks ago. It shows Carter scooting backwards. Recently he has began to figure out how to scoot forwards but hasn't completely gotten the movement down pat yet. Now he scoots backwards at a pretty fast paste. I am sure it is all a matter of time before life as we know it will forever be changed.
