giggles and smiles

Carter is now 20 months old and he continues to
be such a joy to us! He loves entertaining
and being entertained! He loves
his poppa,playing outside, playing in water,
wearing sunglasses, standing in and
on everything, dancing, looking at the
world through any container
or lid or anything, and he is so very silly! He
has always been learning to share and to play
nice because we have had some changes
around our house. Three weeks ago we
moved Celina a 16 year old teen mom and her
18month old daughter into our house...
long story short is they didn't have a safe
secure place to live, so we prayed about
it and moved them in. I've known Celina for
a little over a year, and have
been mentoring her through the program I run for
teen moms... YoungLives
she is a sophomore in high school and a
great mom! She just got her drivers license on
Thursday and we are proud of her and all she
is striving to do in her life! Her daughter Lilly
couldn't be any more dainty and
girly
and it's fun to watch Carter
and her learn to share
and how to play and love each other.
Yes our house is now twice as crazy, noisy
and messy but it's worth it!

Carter getting his dance on...
while we were downtown handing out water for
Bloomsday- my favorite road race that I
forgot to sign up for this year:( But we gave the runners
a drink and had a great time:)
Mr. Song and dance
While I was making dinner
they were sitting together eating snacks
Then they began dancing

and his picnic basket...
Dancing in his car seat- oh yeah!
He has discovered the stool and can
