I can't believe my little Carson is already 4! It has gone by so fast. I remember bringing him home and I was scared to death because I had no idea what the heck I was doing. Luckily my mom came and slept over for a week and helped out all through the night. I remember I was terrified the night she went home, I didn't think I could do it. Carson was a HARD baby. He cried for 6 months. He had acid reflux. I would walk up and down our sidewalk trying to calm him down. I also ran our vacuum all the time till he got used to it and it didn't work anymore. I still remember the day in the car when I had a priceless thought to turn the music to static to help him stop crying and it actually worked, for a short time!! It was awesome! All in all it was a great learning experience for me, I know that if Carson wasn't the baby he was, I would never have appreciated a good baby and if I were to have another one like that(Lets pray no) I would know that I could get through it and it doesn't last forever! Carson is such a sweet, loving, energetic boy. He is always on the go and never crashes! He is very talented and coordinated. We had no idea he could even ride a real scooter till he came home before he was two on our neighbors. He is amazing! He loves kids. He has always been a people person. He loves to be outside playing, his new love is his new bike that he got for his birthday. I can't believe he is already this big, time goes by too fast. I am the luckiest Mom in the world! We love you Carson and hope you had a wonderful birthday.
