Baby Awards

It's award season, which means I am now checking people.com twice daily.  Ok, you've got me, 3 times daily.  In honor of award season, I thought Karter was worthy enough for his set of awards.  So here you have it, the Baby Choice Awards:


Best Almost Solution to Getting Karter to Sleep
A.  The chiropractor
B.  Mark not wearing deodorant (suggestion that was not followed through)
C.  Going on a car ride to get him to sleep

The winner:  A. The chiropractor.  The guy really did want to make it better, but Karter just wasn't having it.  Those few days of all night sleep were great, but almost cruel in the way it teased my body.

Best Mom and Dad Smile Inducing Moment
A.  Karter's first laugh
B.  Karter licking the dog as the dog licks Karter
C.  Karter rolling over for the first time

The winner:  A.  Karter's first laugh.  Karter's laugh is adorable.  He laughs and then Mark and I start laughing because it's so adorable.

Best Public Outburst of Crying
A.  In the middle of Kroger
B.  During prayer time at church
C.  Meltdown in Meijer

The Winner:  C. Meltdown in Meijer.  Little man was perfectly content in his car seat in the cart as we went to pick up a few items for baking...then he decided not to be content.  People soon cleared the aisle as a screaming 4 month old made his voice heard until we could get him out of his seat.

Best Cuddly Moment
A. Holding him while he was sick and needed extra love
B.  First time holding him in the hospital
C. Holding him after my first day back to work
The Winner.  B. First time holding him in the hospital.  Like there was any question!



Best Diaper Explosion
A.  Pooping out of his diaper right after his baptism and getting it on his new outfit

B.  In the tub right during a bath to clean him up from a diaper explosion
C.  Going so much that it soaked through to my sweatshirt.

The winner:  Clearly, it's B.  He really seemed to put in some extra effort and not only dirtied a diaper and outfit, but also discolored one of his bath towels.  Way to go, Karter Man.
