Back From AR

After Josh's wedding, Carter had an Arkansas birthday pool party at Papa and Mimi's house. We had lots of fun and since I stayed with them this time, I had lots of left over cup cakes that I shouldnt have had. Carter is walking like a pro and now finally prefers it to crawling. He is now bipedal-YAY! He also is learning lots of new words and can say a few like kitty, bite, mama, daddy, hi, bye and for some reason, he can say what is it? I think he says other words that just sound like jibberish to me but mean something to him because he repeats them often.

The new baby is doing fine. We went Thursday for an ultrasound hoping to see genitalia but nope...stubborn child was crossing his/her legs in front of it. Now I have to wait 4 more weeks. The ultrasound tech said she "thought" she saw a penis. Most of you know how I feel about that but since I may have a male child read this some day, I shouldnt say. At least the babe is healthy!

Clifton and I got to mess around in Branson for two days ALONE after Thomas' wedding in Harrison and really had lots of fun. Thanks Grandma Donna for keeping Carter! We didnt argue one bit and it really helped us get back on track I think. We went to the Titanic museum and the Butterfly palace. I LOVED the butterfly palace. Butterflies would just land on you. None landed on ME of course but one landed on Clifton and one landed on my purse. Of course we shopped a bunch too. That was the busiest I've ever seen branson. I think Ill stick to off season.
