Stitches

We had our first set of stitches this week. So guess who it was? No not Carson. Afton. But I am sure some of you could see that one coming. But unfortunately I am the one to blame. We were moving some furniture and she snuck up behind me and I got her right in the eyebrow. It was not very hard but hit her perfectly to where it sliced it. As some of you know head wounds bleed a lot at first, and I was in a panic. We rushed to the instacare and the sewed her up. It was only four stitches but as a mother I felt horrible. The nurse kept asking if I was ok. With my kids I know this wont be the last urgent visit but I hope they are few and far between.

p.s. Stitches are now out and it looks great. Might have a little scar but not to noticable I hope.

4!

Well it is that time of year again. Bring on the birthdays! This year my big boy turned 4! Wow four years old can you believe it. Well I can't. Time has gone by so fast. I know I say that every birthday.

We had a super bowl/b-day party at our house on Sunday. My moms birthday was on Saturday so we met in the middle and celebrated both. He got a power wheels truck from mom, dad, Afton, and g & g Kuttler. And he also got a BYU football outfit from the other grandparents. The next day was his birthday so we took him to this new pirate island place. Yeah it was just like Chuck E Cheese. And a couple of days later he had his party with his friends at Kangaroo Zoo. Yes it was a festivous.

Carson has been such a joy in our lives. We love being his parents and having him as a part of our family. He has so much life and passion for it. He is always willing to try anything and always tries to do his best. Right now he is a BIG super hero fan. He loves anything super hero, but batman is his favorite. He loves school and has many friends. I can't wait to see what the future has in store for this little man. We love him so much. Happy Birthday!

Roughing it!

So for my birthday this year I thought it would be a good time to go up to the cabin and do some snowmobiling since my b- day was on a holiday. Well it was a good thought. We got there and the water at the cabin was not working and the snowmobiles decided they wold not either. So we decided since we were there that we might as well stay the night. Yes that means I had no running water for a whole day! Ok I know it was not that bad. My in laws had everything covered, good thing there was A LOT of snow out side to melt, and you really did not even notice that there was no water (except when you had to use the bathroom). It was a good time either way. And Afton loved snowmobiling so much that she stayed up ALL night trying to get someone to take her on a ride. (No joke all night!)
