Noah has been calling Carson "bubby" a lot and I just absolutely adore it. It makes me smile everytime!
Of course he got it from me, I may have called both of my boys that way too many times.
Noah also just uses in the cutest way and at the sweetest times.
Yesterday Carson was whiny a lot of the day and at one point, Noah goes "Bubby, what's wrong, why you keep crying? You want fishies, bunnies, water, strawberry milk, chuck truck? "
I love that he was trying to help me figure out what was wrong. Granted he probably just wanted some peace in his playroom but it came out super sweet.
In the car the other day when it was snowing, Carson was crying and Noah said, "Bubby, it's okay. We be home soon, mom has to pay attention to the road"
The other sweet bubby's I hear are when Carson wakes up from nap or in the morning, Noah will say good morning bubby, or hi bubby, you awake? Or when he gets hurt, he will ask Bubby, are you okay?
I don't know what it is about that word because it would still be sweet if he said Carson in place of all those but when you use Bubby my heart melts. I'm so blessed by them with they are buddies. One lucky momma to call these two boys mine!

Carson at 18 Months
Carson at 18 Months, you
- Are a cuddle monkey, if I had to describe you in one phrase I think that would do it. You love attention and cuddling when you are in the mood, and if you aren't then you are running around being a monkey, climbing and jumping onto everything!
- Have been getting lots of teeth the last two months. I think you are almost done besides your molars
- Down to 1 nap
-Bless me by how good you are in the car once we get you in, sometimes that can be the struggle
-Talk, talk, talk. I'm amazed at how many words you say now. You use a lot to communicate and tell us what you want but you also are repeating after us.
-You understand the word no and use it ALL the time. It's so cute, you say no and shake your little head!
-Are so good at saying Thank you. We didn't even really have to teach you it, you just started.
-Still love Elmo. You love little videos on the Ipad with him but aren't a big fan yet of the Full Sesame Street episodes. They don't hold your attention. You also do the happy dance when Thomas comes on because Noah loves it and gets excited but you really don't watch it after the opening song.
- On the same note, have the cutest happy dance. You tap your feet and run in circles
-Got out of your crib 1 night last week but haven't done it since. I'm not sure why it surprised me but you are a determined boy and you didn't want to go to bed. We will see how much longer you make it in the crib before we have to switch you.
- Are such a picky eater still! Ready for move past this buddy!
-Love to help mommy, you love shutting doors, putting things in the trash for me or picking up toys when I am doing it.
- On the same token you love to throw things. Normal for a toddler boy
-You know some of your animal sounds, and love doing facial features. Once you get going you want to point out everyone's everything and won't stop grabbing onto my eyelashes when you point at my eyes. I never have any to spare buddy, be gentle!
- Try to sneak outside every chance you get.
-Think the Ipad is yours and you need to watch Elmo all the time but yet constantly touch the screen so it's always stopping or switching to another app.
-Sometimes you tell us when you have went "poppy", others you tell us and go lie down by where your diapers are
-Love to be big and join in on stuff with the rest of the family. Some nights when we are going to watch something on TV with Noah and we get popcorn, you think you need some and you are the first to try and get out a blanket for us to use on the couch. You try to sit with us too but you just can't sit still for that long.
-Likes getting rocked and cuddled before bed, and after nap. When we are home, if I can I just sit on the bed with you after you wake up and cuddle. It's our sweet time!
-Loves your daddy more and more everyday. I think he's your favorite! The way you always get so excited to see him and follow him around is adorable.
- Love, love, love messing with lights
-Are starting to play more and more with toys finally. You and Noah really do try and play together sometimes. You look up to him and want to do what he does a lot. You are already best buddies!
I'm sure I'm forgetting lots of great things you do right now but Carson we love you soo much! You are a handful but so cute, sweet, and silly too!

You Know you are mom When....
You know you are a mom When....
I just recently started following The Pink Momma which you can find here and today she did You know you are a mom, when and encouraged others to join!
Here is my list for a mom of two boys 3 and 1 1/2
1) You always carry some emergency treat in your purse for public disasters
2) Each time you clean your floors, they cleanliness is only a sure bet until the next snack or meal
3) You can never go to the bathroom alone, and if you try expect screaming or knocking kids at the door
4) When kids are awake and it's quiet, you know they must be into something they shouldn't be
5) Decorating revolves around my boys, nothing down low, no pretty glass vases or breakables on table, very simplistic
6) Everything dangerous takes much longer to get into, my house sports some sweet cabinet locks and outlet plugs. In a kid free home you could have half your house vacuumed by the time I can get my vacuum plugged in
7) The laundry is never "done"
8) It's never safe to walk downstairs in the dark. You never know what you may step on
9) They say microfiber furniture is easy to clean, not in this house
10) The "fun" apps that are most used on our ipad are PBS and Disney and children's learning.
11) You choose to take a phone call or make one, I need to be prepared for a huge mess all over the house or a chance of some major fighting
12) You buy batteries in bulk packs and you go through them like water
13) Dinner doesn't involve 2-4 courses, it takes half of the kitchen to make because everyone eats something different.
14) You catch yourself wearing character bandaids on a regular basis
15) You randomly hearing crying when it doesn't really exist. I call it phantom crying
16) When you put your 28 year old butt in time in your room to get a break for a few minutes
17) Your style for the day revolves around what you will be doing and where you are going with your kids. Will I be crawling around, chasing, sitting, holding (can't wear something easily pulled down)
18) When new decor is the latest picture that was colored or craft that was made
19) Jewelry becomes toys, or anything in the bathroom for that matter, sometimes a mom just needs to get ready in a timely manner and needs to not be pulled on
20) You start to get ready to leave 30 minutes before you actually need to walk out the door
But also you know you are a mom when,
You have a whole new definition for the word "love"
You get to love on, kiss and cuddle up with the best little things you have ever known!
Giggles and laughs have never sounded so good!
Your favorite place to be is with your family!
You have never felt so blessed than when you look into the faces of your kids!
Being a mom is hard, it's about making sacrifices every day, but at the end of the day I can't imagine life without our two cuties and wouldn't trade them for a thing!
Menu Plan Monday
Menu Plan Monday
What a great weekend we had, out to dinner with friends on Saturday then caught a movie with some chocolate and candy, made a quick day trip yesterday to see some family and ate at a buffet for lunch. Now it's Monday I'm ready to get back on the health bandwagon and eat some good for my body food this week! Over the last month I have gained back some pounds I lost and now I'm ready to say good bye to them! I have no excuses, I've ate a bunch lately and a lot of junk so unfortunately I deserved it!
Here's to a healthy week!
Monday- Crock Pot BBQ Pork Ribs (for the hubby, I'm making spaghetti squash for me) Baked red potatoes and Green Beans
Tuesday- Stuffed Pepper Soup from the freezer. Have I mentioned how much I love having food in the freezer before? Because it truly is one of the things that makes me happy! I need to start adding instead of taking away because there is only a few things left.
Also I don't like stuffed peppers so much but this soup I really do like!
Wednesday- Whole Chicken in the Crock Pot, Brown rice and carrots
Thursday- Leftovers
Friday- Clean Baked Ziti and salad
Have a great week!
