Super Weekend with Aunt Caroline



Aunt Caroline made a surprise visit to the west coast this weekend to escape the subfreezing temperatures of Cincinnati.



While Carson warmed up to Aunt Caroline faster than he did to Pops, he wasn't about to give up a smile right away.



Try as she might, Caroline's pictures brought out the same look in Carson.



Even playing with the balls under the exersaucer couldn't get him to show off his lack of pearly whites.



Of course when Laura was taking the pics he was all smiles.



Maybe he was just showing off for Aunt Caroline, or perhaps it was the need to toughen up his rep in the neighborhood, but Carson seemed to like his hat on backwards. Either that or he couldn't reach the bill to pull it off when it was behind his head.



Is there anything better than getting in beach time less than 6 hours after experiencing temperatures in the single digits?



Carson has no clue what single digit temperatures feel like. The coldest thing he's felt recently was dipping his toes in the ocean.



Carson's friend Nikhil (and his parents) invited us over to watch the Superbowl. Carson and Nikhil got into the sporting spirit and had a little wrestling match at halftime.



Owing to the fact that Nikhil was giving up 2 months (as well as the ability to move), Carson managed to get the pin.



Carson really got caught up in the spirit of the game, and decided it was the perfect time to trot out a new skill. For those of you reading this at work, you may want to drop the volume down a notch unless you want to hear Laura being a bit too parentally proud.

omigod! he is just too cute! I love the photos of our boys wrestling! LOL on Laura being parentally proud. As a mom I can attest to the excitement and swelling of pride that flows through when your kid does something like smile or clap for the first time!
