Carter the Crazy



For some time now it has been evident that for as good and calm of a baby that Carter is he also has a wild streak in him. He is very adventurous and doesn't seem to be afraid of anything. Just this week alone he has climb on the dining room table, gotten a screwdriver down and then fallen with it in his hand, narrowly missing his eye but cutting the skin just below it. That same night he decided that he could stand in the engine part of his Amazing Animals train. There is a small square area on it for an animal to fit in, and Carter was able to get both of his feet in there however it was short lived as it slipped out from underneath him and he fell backward and hit his head on the hardwood floor. (I only saw the part where he was falling out backward and couldn't get to him in time), and later that same night he decided that it would be fun to stand on his ride-on bulldozer he got for Christmas. He has always loved to stand on things he isn't supposed to. He would stand up on the seat and then yell "dada" for Jason to look at him and then he would jump up and down and sway back and forth saying "whoa" until he fell off on the floor. This continued for a long time. Yesterday morning I had gone into my bedroom to get dressed and when I came out he was in the living room laughing and standing on top of the end table next to the chair. I guess we could say that life with Carter will never be dull! I have included a picture from a few weeks ago when I couldn'f find him and finally saw him behind the end table on the floor with an entire new can of Pringles dumped out on the floor and eating them! Also, I included a picture from last weekend when I decided to not tear up his doughnut and just give him half at a time to eat. Needless to say it required a bath afterward!
