famous


We were hanging with celebrities on Saturday. Not that I mean to brag, but how can you not?

Being honest here - I thought Carter would be (typically) scared. But me? I was dying to meet Brobee, so we were taking the chance. Toys R Us was packed. There was face painting, balloon animals, Geoffrey the Giraffe and other free stuff ... each of which had its own line of waiting parents and their kids wrapping around aisles.

Have you ever attempted standing in line with a toddler? How about in the middle of a toy store? Toddlers don't believe in lines. Matt & I took turns standing in line while the other one played in the aisles with Carter. When I finally reached the front, I called Matt's phone, and we wrestled him back into the line. I anticipated the worst; we're scared of so many things (this, this and this).

But his body tightened up, and his face grew a huge smile. We even managed some high fives.

I guess when you recognize a huge, furry, green monster from TV, he doesn't qualify as scary like Easter bunnies, oceans and a jolly man with a fluffy, white beard.

  2. Cute!!!
    As a side note: I was trying to catch up on your videos and the birthday one will not play, it says it is blocked b/c it contains content from 'UNG' (I think..) and that is not legal to watch in this country?... hmm

  8. Thanks for checking on me Lindsay! We don't have Internet set up in our new house until 8/22, so until then all I have is my phone and I cant blog or elreally do anything. It's like being on a deserted island! But it's kinda good too bc it forces me to unpack and get organized xox

  10. I am only 13 years old... and somehow rolled upon your videos and I fell in love. I can't really explain it, but I feel like I don't want to forget about these videos 15 years from now when I'm pregnant (because I can't wait to have to kids). Carter is so cute, you have a beautiful house, you are so pretty and I am guessing it is you, but your photography is amazing! I just sat there listening to all of your stories no matter how long they were. I know that I have a long time togo, but I know I want kids but then I am scared for that time to come in the future. Now I know what to do and what's good... and what's bad. You are an amazing mother, and I wish you, Matt and Carter the best of luck. <3
    Question- What do you think Carter is going to grow up to do? Like what certaint things interest him? I know he loves trains, so maybe something with trains? I dont know! Lol :)
    Question- Is Carter well behaved in public? Or do you have certaint rules that you have been teaching him? When I grow up, I want my kids to have a lot of discipline. Or is that not what you really do?

    Thank you soooooo much!!

  11. Just wanted to add that today I went out, got clips, tried to find a glove thing, but couldn't... came home and tried to curl my hair like you. Of course, I failed!! Lol :) My sister says that we need a better curling iron. Anyway... just wanted to say thank you for posting that video! Very helpful, and I wish I will one day perfect it like you have! :D

  12. Becca, when I watched that video (probably over a year ago) I went out and got the supplies, too, and also couldn't find the glove....I failed miserably even with a brand new curling iron! lol So don't feel bad. And I am much older than you!

    Meghann, glad to hear everything is ok, I was getting worried, too!
