We decided to take one of the last nice weekends this late summer/early fall and go mini golfing for a family date night. (Josh had a free game from his golf class at BYU.) Josh’s golf class taught him a lot, because he creamed me, but we both had a lot of fun. Carson did, too. :)
Carson has all sorts of awesome accomplishments lately. Mostly, he’s just making us smile by smiling and talking (meaning squawking, squealing, and cooing) a lot.
It would probably be better if those pictures were a video, huh? Oh well; pictures will have to do for now.
Carson is also holding his head up so well! He’s a tummy time champ. And he likes looking at this black and white baby book we have:
And, coolest of all, Carson can roll over! Again, this would probably be better as a video, and we do have a video to post, but for now, these will give you an idea:
Yay Carson! We love you so much, bud. And you’re adorable. :)
So these pictures and this experience is over a year old, but I just found the pictures on my computer and remembered that I had meant to post about this.
Last summer while we were in Dallas, somehow we had a loaf of French bread that went stale before we could eat it. Such a pity, too, because Josh and I love a good loaf of French bread. But then I remembered that Josh told me French toast actually comes from the poor class of people back in the day in France, when they would have bread that was too hard to eat but they were too poor to buy more, so they saved their bread by soaking it in egg to re-soften it and then cooking it, and it was called pain perdu (which translates to “lost bread”). I decided to see if I could recover our lost bread by making authentic French toast, and it worked! Yay! So now you know what you can do with stale bread, besides just feed it to ducks. :)
This is our one hundredth post! Woo hoo! Kind of neat that we’ve been posting for as long as we’ve been married (almost three years!) and through lots of major events (like having Carson!). We’re glad to have this record of our life together, and glad to share it with you. And to celebrate, some photos you may or may not have seen showing our most excited and happy faces:
