i am pleased to announce.... that my adorable baby boy slept 8 hours straight last night! this is the third time in the last three weeks he has done this and i felt it was worthy of public praise (in hopes that such positive feedback and recognition will encourage the lad to make it a habit:).


he has also accomplished a few other things i thought i should mention.


he has finally realized how entertaining/funny his mother is, and at last, all my ridiculous voices, songs, faces, and dances are finally reaping a reward....smiles. tyrell's outlandish antics are also beginning to consistently provide our child with moments of visible happiness. a friend told me about a study she had read somewhere which claimed, that babies smiles activate the same area of the brain in mothers that methanphetamines do. i can believe this as i find carter's smiles both fulfilling and addicting!


at six weeks old, carter, in a fit of rage, managed to roll himself over... twice!! i would not have believed it if i had not seen it with my own eyes. it is amazing what a melt down can motivate a child to do. i have not seen this accomplishment since but i fear that once he begins moving around i am going to be in trouble.

i'm glad i don't have to worry about your baby anymore - as long as he recognizes your wit, all is well.
to answer your q posted on my wedding pics blog, jared went to a the cardinals game. he figured since he went to our sealing the day before that he didn't need to go to the reception. there's jared for ya! ;) and yes, that was bryant with his siblings.
