Carter 10 months

Thank goodness for child locks on cabinets. This boy sure knows how to make a mess. Like all children, Carter loves to pull things off the shelves. Especially after you have just put things away. I've had to adopt the opinion that a messy house means a happy baby. This month, Carter has discovered that he can climb in the cupboards and pull everything out. Thankfully the only one he can get into is the one with all the plastic bowls. He also loves the inside of the fridge. It doesn't matter where he is, if you open the doors on the fridge he'll come as fast as he can. Leave the door open too long and he'll just climb right in. We've now had to move the garbage off the floor and into the pantry. The little stinker loves knocking them over. Just like the fridge, Carter loves the dish washer. Luckily the door hasn't broken off yet from the weight of a baby sitting on it. If I want the dishes done quickly, I have to put him in his high chair with a treat.
I finally took Carter to a park and let him try the swings and the slides for the first time.  He gets the biggest smile on his face when he swings so I assume he loves it. Going down slides is a different story. I don't think he quite knows what is going on. Maybe next spring he'll like them more.
Carter has now discovered that the bathroom echoes. I think that is his noisiest time of day. He loves banging his toys on the tub and splashing mommy with the water. I feel like I need to wear a rain coat in the bathroom. He seem to enjoy drinking the bath water as well. I knew he loved water, but come on kid, bath water? Hey, he's just staying hydrated.

Going down the slide with Nicholas

While Nicholas played, Carter chilled

Such a destructive little boy, knocked it over all by himself

What's in here?

Mom, you need a bowl?

I know there's more back here somewhere

He's growing up too fast! Already needs a haircut

Ready to go shovel the snow

Such a buff little dude. Already lifting weights

So this is how I get my binki when you take it away

Helping with the dishes

10 months old and no longer a baby, but a little boy

I like them on the floor, duh
