Top 6 Reasons That He Is Not My Baby Anymore...

This week, I went to Hobby Lobby with my fifth grade team members...who I love. I had to pick up Carson on the way, so when I got there everyone was inside. When I found the crew, Debbie (aka Gilligan and one of the crew members) said to me, "Oh my goodness O'Neill, he is growing by the day". I said, "Yeah, he is getting big" and proceeded to run around the corner and cry...in the middle of Hobby Lobby!

So, this weekend, I was reflecting on that and here are the Top 6 Reasons that he is not my baby any more...

1. He wants to get in, sit and play in daddy's computer chair...All by himself.

2. He wants to eat everything with his hands, even though he is given a fork and spoon...all by himself.

3. When anyone tries to help him, he turns his back, starts to run and says, "No, No, No." and wants to do it...all by himself.

4. A Capri Sun will fix just about any crisis, which he can drink...all by himself.

5. He can play and participate in family board game night...all by himself.

6. His chubby baby legs are all thinned out. And he did that by becoming more active and running around...all by himself. {Sniff, Sniff and excuse the eczema on his legs and no shorts}

Welcome to toddlerhood big boy! Even though you are growing by the day, I am blessed that you are doing things...all by yourself. And for the record, your name will always be Baby Carsoney to me. Love you tons!
