Impromptu concert....in the frozen food aisle

So yesterday morning we went to Publix to do our weekly shopping. There were not alot of people there due to it being Sunday morning. After about an hour of grocery shopping and Carson running around the store we hit the frozen section. It is there that Carson decides is the perfect place to give us a concert. She started out with Bringing Home a Baby Bumblebee then onto You Are My Sunshine and her encore was Itsy Bitsy Spider. But each song was about 2 min. long because she doesn't quite know how to wrap them up....so she just keeps singing, and singing and singing...... What are parents to do but stand there and clap for her:)??

Oh Carson, there is never a dull moment when you are around....Thank you for making us smile and laugh each and every day.

I wish I would have gotten a photo of her at the grocery store but I wasn't thinking.....next time.

We are gearing up to get ready for Carson's 1st beach trip in Hilton Head. Also, she turns 2 this Saturday. Sure to be a good time for us all!

Kids Say the Darndest Things

So wanted to blog about 2 things that Carson has said lately. This will surely being an ongoing post since she is always saying something funny!

• We were pulling into our driveway several weeks ago from daycare and this is our conversation. Carson-"Know what?" Me- "What?" Carson "It's popsicle time" I laughed out loud and told her she is just a hoot. I swear she could eat a popsicle for breakfast, lunch and dinner if we let her. The hot weather combined with teething would make me want something cold like that too.

• Yesterday the daycare called due to a fever and Daniel went to pick her up and took her to the dr. Last night I was asking her about her appointment. Me- "What did the dr. do today at your appointment?" Carson -"Took my temperature" Me- "What did the dr. say to you?" Carson (in all seriousness)- "No more monkeys jumping on the bed!" Daniel and I died laughing.

Oh sweet Carson....you keep us all in stitches each and every day!! How did we ever live without you????

Where is the time going????

Dear Time,

Please slow down!!! My child is growing up way to fast.

Sincerely-

The Hahns

I cannot believe that Carson will be 2 in September. What they say is true....When you have children time really flies!! She is turning into such a little girl. From getting taller and slimmer to slowly but surely getting more hair:) We keep saying we are going to trim it but we have WAITED.SO.LONG for her hair to come in I can't bare to cut any of it:)!

She's the Silly Band Queen

I mean seriously....she loves these things! They are ALL.OVER.OUR.HOUSE!!!! While they can make you crazy because they are EVERYWHERE I can't help but think it is hilarious all the same. I remember being at least 7 and wearing the jelly bracelets. The funniest thing about these is that she puts them all the way up her arm....as you can see from the picture above. My Mom got them for her several months ago and since then we are knee deep in the Silly Bands. Actually, she's not picky.....if you have a rubber band for your hair she will take that too....and try to put in on not her wrist but her bicep:)

My Prayers for You Sweet Carson......

Every day I pray for you to be happy, healthy & safe but there are many, many more prayers I want you to know too.

• That you always be the kindest person you can be (even when it is not easy).
• That you will be happy.....truly, truly happy.
• That you will not worry (please don't worry like your Mommy and Daddy tend to do, God's got this & will take care of it all:)
• That you will try to smile and laugh every single day.
• That you always see your full potential and know that you can do anything you want.
• That you have a great relationship w/your Daddy and I.....just the way that we have w/our parents. Oh, we know it will be rocky at times....but that in the end....they are your biggest fans and best friends.
• That you always appreciate and stay close to your family.
• That you surround yourself with great friends and that they appreciate you for exactly who you are.
• That you know just how very loved you are!!!

We love you to the moon and back Carson Clare!! You are such a joy and an absolute blessing to our lives.

That Was Fun......

We went to Macon this past weekend to celebrate Uncle Justin's birthday. Around the Hahn family going to hibachi is the thing to do for your birthday! It's always a good time and we eat until we need to be rolled out. This time was no different. There were ALOT in our party so we had 2 hibachi tables for the soiree. Unfortunately, I really didn't get any pics. to post.

We were a little nervous about how Carson was going to react to all of this. We have never taken her to a Japanese restaurant. When we got there we had to wait about 20 minutes. Carson loved this....she loved going and visiting with the family (some standing, some sitting on a bench, Daddy standing at the nearby bar:). She is very social most times. Or shall I say when she knows the majority of the people. (Hmm.....I guess that's how Daniel and I are too). The thing we were most apprehensive about was Carson seeing the fire. Quite honestly, it kind of freaks me out too! No matter how prepared I am for it....it always gets me! So yes....she did get a little upset but it helped for her to be in Aunt Kendra's lap:) All in all she did great to be in that crazy loud environment. (The waitstaff even gave Daddy their drum to play for Justin's Happy B-day song:)

When we got in the car to go home Carson said "That was fun." Glad she liked the Japanese restaurant....we are sure to have many more crazy hibachi celebrations!

Backtracking a bit.....4th of July

So for the 4th of July holiday we went down to Lake Blackshear to spend it w/our dear friends The Fitzgeralds. (I'll do a post on them some time:) Mandy and I have been friends for oh, let's see....forever and a day....and we all have such a good time together. So much fun that we have little girls similar in age. (I'm sure Daniel and Michael are secretly hoping Mandy or I will throw a boy in there at some point). We'll see about that:).....


Carson sure loves being at the lake. She loved all of the boats going by. She learned what a Sea-Do was and proceeded to call everything she saw in the lake a Sea-Do. (I think she liked saying that word). She got to feed some geese, went on a boat ride and the best part for her by far....eating homeade icecream. This child is truly mine when it comes to sweets....she loves them ALL....but particularly ice cream and cupcakes!!! Oh, dear....we are in trouble!
