Shame on me... I got so caught up in life, work, house chores, etc. once I returned from vacation, I forgot to blog about Canada! (Sorry Alan, Christina & CiCi)
We had a great time north of the border. My only regret was that Carson didn't get a stamp in her passport when we went through the border patrol. bummer. Seriously. the 9 hour drive really wasn't that bad, and Carson did great! It was a bit rainy while we were there, but this entire summer has been rainy, so we all made the best of it. Seeing our friends was great, and Carson and CiCi became friends fast. Steve and Alan got to go four-wheelin' twice and they saw a bear and a eagle on their adventure (lucky dogs.) Carson and I went to a butterfly farm with Christina and CiCi, and while Carson loved the butterflies, she accidentally mamed one... imagine clipped wings... she tried to eat part of the wing for good measure. ugh.
hopefully you can see the two of them.. my first attempt at black and white photography on my digital camera... some computers its fine (sorry if its too dark on your screen)
A HUGE THANK YOU to Alan, Christina, and the adorable CiCi.. thanks for having us up!! We'll have to do it again next summer!
Now, since then.... Carson has sprouted some teeth.. I haven't counted up top, but she has 5 on the bottom including two molars... and she's about to start walking!! Well, maybe in a few weeks, but she's almost there! She loves to be sung to, and she's very talkative (just not with words that us big people understand) She has her 15 month check up tomorrow... and her physical therapy 6-month evaluation is coming up in September.. Hopefully she'll graduate out of the program! hmmm.. what else? Oh, she just had her first haircut two weeks ago.. just a trim of the bangs. very cute.
We're off for Vacation #3 soon... ARUBA!! woohoo! Carson will definitely get a stamp in her passport this time! This is my 30th birthday celebratory trip... we just had to take it a few months later...
