Happy 1 Week Old Bday to me!!

From Carson: Wow, what a week. How much my life has already changed! Here I was, snug as a bug in mom's belly. I got to be on my tummy and slept on my side. Then suddenly a light came on and I was jerked out. All of the sudden, I'm expected to eat with my mouth, sleep on someone else's schedule ON MY BACK no less, latch on to a nipple with this mouth thing..AND be adorable at the same time? And you wonder why I didn't want to come out?? However, there are some upsides.

Current hobbies include:
-Tummy Time (it's my chance to try to fall asleep comfortably)
-Smiling (yeah, that gets these mom & dad & nana characters going )
-Staring at the animals on my bouncy seat
-Being held from the hours of 3 - 6am

Pretty cool though, I'm a celebrity in my house. This fuzzy sister character Kayla LOVES me and protects me by always being by mom's side when I'm in my room and even sleeping in the hallway outside of my nursery just to protect me. Maybe life isn't so bad.
