Family Fun on Dad's Birthday


We had a blast last weekend celebrating Dad's birthday with the McKnight and Hurt-Rahn household. The three cousins hammed it up for the camera with some super cute pictures.
Grandpa McKnight had a nasty cold the last time he visited several weeks ago, but he more than made up for lost time with Carson by babysitting for us on Friday afternoon and night! Kassie and Chels also helped out, thanks to all for taking care of the little guy. While they babysat for us, Trish surprised me by taking me out for dinner and drinks in downtown Seattle. We ate at the Wild Ginger and then had a couple cocktails at the Triple Door. At first, Trish and I felt like people on the street were pointing at us because we felt so out of place without Carson and actually out in public after dark. It's amazing how much our lives have changed over the past year. But we quickly assimilated to the freedom of the night and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.




This past week Carson learned a new trick. He now plays peek-a-boo with you if you give him a blanket. As you ask, "Where's Carson? Where's Carson?" he hides his face with the blanket and then pull it down with a big ole smile to announce his arrival. When you respond, "There he is. There he is." Carson bursts out in a fit of laughter. He plays like this for several minutes, but eventually speeds up the game to a point where he is just pulling the blanket up and down and laughing.



We took a few pictures of Calder's family because Christi claims that she is too often left out of family photos and she believes that her boys may one day wonder where their mother was during their early years.



This picture of Trish and Carson is adorable.





Carson's personal record for opening his mouth.

Grandpa Hink stopped by a few days later to visit and filled us in on the first few weeks of Carson's new first cousin, Isiah born on March 2nd, we are all looking forward to meeting him soon.

It just goes to show that happy mommies and daddies make happy babies. Carson is very sparky and obviously a happy baby.
