Carson is 18 Months!

Carson is 18 months old today. We really can't believe how fast he has grown up. He gets bigger and smarter every day. He is continually doing things that surprise us. He has such a fun little personality. He loves people and loves attention. He is a little performer.

We never get tired of bragging about how smart he is, so here is a little more bragging. He can count to 13 without mistakes, 20 with a little help. He knows like 17-18 letters by sight and know all of the consonant sounds. He can sing the ABC's all the way through without help. He knows over 200 words and puts together 6-7 word sentences. I swear that he has to just hear a word once and he will remember it and the appropriate way to use it. He knows his first, middle and last name and can spell his first name. He knows all the colors and the common shapes. His new favorite thing is to call Phil and I by our first names. He thinks it's so funny when he does it.

Carson really loves to play with other children. I have been really impressed by how well he shares (usually) and cooperates (usually). He has a couple of fun neighbor friends and he asks to play with them every day. We are really looking forward to Nursery on Sunday. He is beyond ready to go. I don't think he will have any problems going in.

We just love out little boy! He has enriched our lives in ways we never thought imaginable.
