One Week.

Technically Brady is 10 days old today but the picture was taken when he was just a week. I know I haven't posted any pics from the hospital yet, but I am planning on it and I am planning on writing a post about the delivery. For now we are just surviving and taking it one day at a time. I am so glad I have my two boys in my life. Jackson and Brady make our family feel so much more complete.

Pool Time!

Jackson finally had his first experience with a pool. The weather is hot and muggy here so I know we will be using this baby a lot this summer. When I first blew it up he just wanted to play with it in the living room. I am glad I have such an easily entertained child. He started out afraid to get in and just threw his toys in and then fished them out. Then slowly he went from standing in the pool to splashing around! He never actually sat in the pool to play. He will get there. He had a complete blast. COMING SOON:BRADY'S BIRTH STORY WITH LOTS OF ADORABLE PICTURES!!!! Stay tuned...

Let's Go Celtics!

This is an exciting time in my house right now because the Boston Celtics are in the Play Offs.
Because Ike is a huge fan and Jackson is a tiny clone of Ike, I have two very excited Celtics watching guys in my house. Of course, they have to wear their jerseys whenever they watch a game together.
Jackson usually wants to wear his jersey and shorts over his PJ's when he goes to bed on game nights as well.
Let's go Celtics!

The Carrs Go Camping!

Since school got out last Friday, Ike and I decided it would be fun to do something to celebrate. Our first thought was to drive to Ohio and stay with my family for a week but because I have so many Dr.'s appointments and because I am so close to the end of my pregnancy we decided a camping trip might be a little safer. We have never gone camping before but I feel like this trip was a success. The biggest lesson learned: BUY AN AIR MATTRESS. This may not have been the biggest deal except trying to get comfortable on the ground when you are 8 months pregnant is not easy. We will have to go camping again when I'm not pregnant and see how well I sleep. This trip unfortunately earned the "Worst Night Sleep of the Year" award. Still totally worth it though. I can't wait to go again.
We fit Jackson's toddler bed mattress perfectly in the tent. He slept great. Ike and I, not so much.
I think my favorite part of camping is waking up in the morning when it is chilly and making a fire then eating breakfast. I really love it.

Stressed?

So because we have hit a few bumps in this pregnancy, my Dr. has been making me have weekly Non-Stress Tests. Basically they hook me up to three different machines for 20 minutes to an hour and monitor the baby. I have been doing this for a few weeks now and realized I need to document this for future generations. Today I had Ike bring the camera along.
Ok so they really aren't as exciting as this picture makes it look but with Ike and Jackson in the room with me, the time goes by pretty fast. Also, did I mention that I am 35 weeks on Monday and if I were to have this baby a week early (Like I did with Jackson.) than I could be delivering in almost exactly 1 month. Crazy!!!

Last Day of Students!!!

I can't technically say that today is Ike's last day of school because he still has to go for the rest of the week to finish some semester testing and clean out his room but today is officially the last day of teaching students! I can't believe this school year has gone by so fast! This is Ike leaving the house on his FIRST day of school!
Jackson has also grown up so much since we moved here. He could barely reach our front door and wasn't a very good walker. Now he is a little man! And it has not even been a year.
These were taken our first weekend in Fullerton at the 4th of July Celebrations. This year on the 4th of July we will be celebrating with a new baby. Time flies.

4 Years of Photos.

I am still having a hard time believing that in a few months Ike and I will be celebrating our 4 year anniversary. I don't feel like we have been married that long! Here are our family photos from the last four years. 2008
