Once again it has been ages since I've posted anything. Life seems to just be flying by. We are doing great. Carter is 14 months old and is just such a joy. He has recently mastered the skill of walking and is now working on running. Needless to say, he keeps me quite busy! :-) It's so neat to see his little personality developing. God has definitely wired him "all boy!" He absolutely LOVES being outside. On Saturday morning he was outside "helping" his daddy with some work and I went out to check on him. It was a little chilly that morning and he didn't have a jacket on. His hands were like ice and his teeth were chattering, but when I tried to pick him up to take him inside he protested quite loudly. Poor little guy! He's learning new things every day. He will now point to his nose when we ask him "where's your nose?". This week he learned how to give "kisses" which consist of his mouth being wide open and tons of slobber, but I just love getting them! My favorite new "trick" he does is when we ask him "where's the baby?" he will lift up my shirt so he can see my belly and then lays his head down on my belly.
Speaking of my belly, it's getting quite large. It's amazing how much more quickly I seem to be growing with this baby than I did with Carter. I'm just over half-way done with my pregnancy, I'm feeling great and the baby seems to be developing just perfectly. We had our ultrasound a few weeks ago and everything looked wonderful. We decided not to find out the sex of this baby until he/she is born. We didn't find out with Carter either and it was just so exciting.
Justin is doing great. His business is really growing and keeps him quite busy. He surprised me last month by telling me that we will be taking an early anniversary celebration trip to Orlando, Florida in March. Our 5th anniversary isn't until August but we anticipate that we will be quite busy with a new little one at that time so he decided to take this trip early. I'm so excited! We will be leaving Carter with Justin's parents while we are gone. I know we will have a blast but I also know we will miss Carter like crazy! I haven't been away from him overnight since he was born so this should be interesting! We're planning on doing a lot of eating (my favorite hobby!), visiting Epcot, and going to an Astros game! The Astros will be playing the Braves in spring training while we are there and we'll get the chance to be there. It should be a good time.
Well, I guess I'll close for now. More later, I'm sure...

Hey Kristi! Thanks for the update! It is good to hear you are doing well.
I know what you mean by Carter being "all boy." Jeremiah is only 7 months old and he is already showing signs of being "all boy" - he is always pushing the limits of his balance and motor skills resulting in bruises, busted lips, and scrapes. He keeps us on our toes and he is not even walking yet - I can't imagine what it will be like at 14 months! He is so much fun anyway, though!
Have fun in Orlando!
