a couple...

new photos to share from the last couple of days! Carson is ready for the beach in his surf trunks and he loves his new little doggie from his grammie.

A funny story-took the Carson to work a few days ago and someone asked what Carson likes to do these days...well, he likes to surf and play in the sand and play with trains...well...silly...what do you think he likes to do when he is 6 weeks old? Sleep, eat and all the other things a baby does.

Got me thinking and now I'm trying to be better at writing down what he is doing....
smiles a ton
cooing and making the sweetest sounds

loves belly time under his play gym

enjoys watching the vertical blinds

likes to exercise those legs by pushing off on daddy or mommy

head isn't as wobbly anymore...lifting it on his own

turns head when he hears mommy's and daddy's voice

loves bath time

concentrates on bright colors (as opposed to previously preferring blk. & white)

Doc appt. Monday says he is 11lbs. 8 ozs. and he is a healthy boy and I am a happy mommy! xoxo

p.s. hoping not to bore anyone, just want to take advantage of this "online journal" for the henkel family.

sweet...

little photo of two precious ones from our lunch date (and trip to Anthropologie) last week with ours mums and babes. Yindi was born 2 weeks and one day before Carson. Fun that they will be playmates. Just adore this girlie and her sweet girls, Ivy and Yindi...and her mum Jenny! It's all cause of scrapbooking that I have such amazing, positive and inspiring friends like Em!

Have been busy doing something that I wouldn't trade for anything...savoring and relishing the time with our little munchkin! Hope to start doing some scrapbooking soon. Have tons of photos...taking one a day like Em is doing to be able to do something with them after he's 1 year old.

a little...

photo fun with Carson! Have a great weekend! xoxo

love...

getting those creative juices flowing...and I tried to do just that when I was asked by sweet friends, Susan Lyons & Debbie, to create a project for their scrapbooking website, Freckle Friends. Everything on the album (not in) is included in the kit for you to purchase if you'd like. Thanks Susan & Debbie for asking me to be a part of the August happenings at Freckle Friends! xoxo

a sling...

full of sweetness....nothing could be better than having him close to me. xoxo

3 weeks...

amazing to me that this little one is 3 weeks already. I'm sure I'll be saying the same thing when he is 3 years old. Here are just a few shots from this last week. You can see a ton more on my mom's blog...she's much quicker than I. :-) I can't get enough of this sweet baby and think we are so lucky to have him...such a good baby. Planning a little outing today to go and buy a sling to carry him around with me...nothing sweeter than hving him close to me...and his daddy too! have a great weekend! xoxo
