AHOY MATEY! TUCKER TURNS 4!

Tucker was so excited to get presents just for himself and not Carter too.















Tucker got a sweet bike for his birthday. He LOVES it.















Arggggg Matey!




















We are a Pirate Family.















Being a pirate is infectious. See everyone is doing it.

EASTER WAS SO MUCH FUN!

Tucker was very excited to see what the Easter Bunny had brought him.


















Carter could care less. But he did get some really cute stuff.


















Tucker, Henry, and Sidney got gummy snakes over at Uma & Upa's house.














We snapped a quick family pic that I just love!!!














My neice Amelia is just adorable, don't you agree.



















This is just a sample of what Tucker's new room looks like. The carpet just got put in today.















And here is Tucker showing you a sample of Carter's new nursery.

HIPPITY HOPPITY EASTER'S ON ITS WAY

Today we took Tucker and Carter to see the Easter Bunny. Tucker loved to see the Easter Bunny. He gave Tucker coloring sheets and candy. And Carter loved how soft and fuzzy his fur was.



















Yesterday, Carter and I took cupcakes to Tucker's school to celebrate his birthday. Here is a picture of the boys when we are packing up to leave.

WAHOOS & LEPRECHAUNS

Check out Carter's Wahoo pride! This is the onsie that I gave to my mom for her birthday last year to tell her that we were pregnant.


















This is my little leprechaun Tucker. He made this at school and came home so proud of himself.

FROM SUCKING THUMBS TO DOING LUNCH...

Carter has been very busy this week.

Here he is sucking his thumb for the very first time. I admit it, I cried.


















This is an adorable outfit that my friend Trish gave him.



















This is Carter out at his first luncheon with Mom, Dad, and Tucker at Uno's.















Here is a really cute picture of Big Bro' Tucker at Unos.

BREASTMILK DOES A BODY GOOD!!! (THE BABY'S OF COURSE)

Hi everyone! All is well in the Morris Household. I just got back from taking Carter to a Doctor's appointment for a check-up. Two weeks ago Carter weighed 6lbs 15oz after having lost some weight after we got home. Today, just a mere 2 weeks later, the little porker weighed 8lbs 9oz. I couldn't believe it. I asked the Dr. if he had gigantism or something. I mean, is it normal for a baby to gain that much in 2 weeks? Well, evidently it is okay. It is a lot to gain, but not that unusual. And what do you expect from a kid who eats every 30 minutes - 2 hours during the day. Carter has also grown to be 21.5in long. I cannot believe he is getting so big so soon. Can't I just pause time?

New Picture Time...

Here is Daddy and a smiling Carter.














Oh, Mister Serious














A Happy Carter is a Smiling Carter














And we cannot leave out the latest Tucker cheesy pose!

MY BROTHER...THE NEW MR. HHS 2008

I just knew that my brother was entertaining. But I had no idea how entertaining he was. Not only did he win Best Talent in the Mr. HHS Pageant, he won the whole darn thing. Mason was crowned the 2008 Mr. HHS on Friday night. He has an award winning personality that really shined through his whole performance. I am so proud of him. And a big thanks to my mom who spent all day trying to get this on the computer for me, and thanks to Mason who came home from school and did it in 5 minutes. Check it out and see my little Bro.

NOT BABY RELATED, BUT HILARIOUS

My brother Mason is quite possibly the funniest guy I know. He is again this year entering in his High School Male Beauty Contest--Mr. HHS. Last year he did (are you ready for this?) Ribbon Dancing. He wore spandex for goodness sake. Well we were all wondering how he was going to top that routine. Well...he might have done it. The contest is on Friday so I do not have his video yet. But here is a sample of someone else doing it. I watched this and I almost peed my pants I was laughing for the entire 6 minutes. Please watch the whole thing. Your cheeks will be sore from laughing so hard.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you...The Evolution of Dance!

WEEK TWO AND LOVING LIFE

Well, it is week #2 and we are still on Cloud 9! Having Carter join our family has been pure joy. Even in the middle of the night and he pees on himself for the 3rd time, I cannot stop smiling when I look at him. I cannot seem to put him down during the day. I just want to hold him and love on him 24 hours a day. I find myself drifting back to thoughts of Parker and Grace and wondering if they would've been anything like Carter. If they would've had his disposition and good looks. Would they have had his coloring and would they have eaten as good as him? I know these feelings are natural and believe me folks, I am so appreciative of what I do have. Even though Carter wasn't born at 28 weeks like Tucker or 22 weeks like the twins, Carter is our miracle baby. Thank God that he was able to stay in for as long as he did.

Carter is still eating every 2-3 hours during the night, but he has started to eat every 1-2 hours during the day. That is a lot of breastfeeding!!! I really enjoy it though. It is really cool how natural it is and how much I feel like we bond when I feed him. He hates baths so far. But loves to stare in your eyes when you hold him. It just makes me tear up thinking about how much he needs and loves us, as much as we need and love him. I had forgotten what it was like to have a baby in the house.

Enough mush...

Tucker is home today for yet ANOTHER snow day. So we are playing hard and posing for pictures today!















I found the most adorable baby book for Carter. I have already filled in most of it. I just need to add the pictures.




















This is such a cute outfit, I just had to share it with you!















This is how you will find Carter 95% of the time. One hand is always out of the blankets. Tucker always stuck out a foot.















And finally, Tucker is worn out from a long day playing. He decided to lay down and enjoy Mommy's James Patterson novel. He only got through 1 page.
