Wide awake before bedtime.....

Sound asleep mid-morning the next day.... That's what happens when this little boy fights bedtime and then decides to wake up at 5:30am.

Have I mentioned he's getting more teeth? One has come thru and 3 more are close.

The tech gave us a handful of ultrasound pictures, but I wasn't able to transfer them very clearly except this one. Two feet, crossed at the ankles. So lady-like.

Big Brother

Big brother Carter is welcoming a little SISTER into the family! Wow, blog readers you guess well! Almost everyone guess girl and you were RIGHT!

All in a day....

Today Carter tried on his fire chief hat... Worked with Daddy in the home office...

And had bath time with Mommy...

Of course these photos don't include the following:

• crying to watch Elmo
• playing with his trains
• taking two rides around the neighborhood in the wagon
• learning the game 52 card pickup
• going to the mall so the 18 month old can run until his heart's content
• going to dinner where Carter discovered what lemons were and that although he can't stand lemons he can't stop putting them in his mouth

Not to bad of a day!

Bo Update

Good news everyone. Bo Kitty is back! He was on the back patio this morning crying to be let in. So far he has spent the morning eating and I imagine he will sleep all afternoon. Thank you to everyone who was wishing him a speedy return home.

Missing You

Bo was a stray 7 years ago. I took him in as a tiny kitty and he's been our pet ever since.


Bo Kitty is an inside cat who loves to venture outside. Usually he is supervised, but he has been known to slip out the door unnoticed from time to time. At the most he's been gone for a couple of hours. He slept outside one time, but in the morning was at the door crying to be let in. Well folks, Bo has been gone for almost 24 hours. He snuck out sometime last night and we haven't seen or heard from him since. Everyone in the Meek house is missing him dearly and are hoping he's ok. They say cats are smart and can turn up days, even weeks, after they go missing. Let's hope that's the case for Bo. The humane society and the local vets have our info. Maybe someone will turn him in. We'll keep you posted on the search. Come home Bo Kitty. We miss you!

just playin' in the rain

Rain Video, Part I: Carter likes the rain when he's inside the house.



Rain Video, Part II: Carter's warming up to the idea of playing in the rain.



Rain Video, Part III: Carter decides to get himself a refreshing drink of water AFTER the rain is over.

P.S. Let's pretend I don't refer to water drops as water drips in this video. And lets pretend I don't say it more then once! Eeek!
