I cannot believe Carrie has been part of our family for a whole year now, but it's also hard to remember when she wasn't part of our family. She is such a cute little girl and we love having her in our family. She started walking at 11 months is constantly moving and exploring. She recently discovered chalk and bubbles which she really enjoyed. Carrie loves to give hugs and will nicely pat you on the back especially when she is sad. She also gives great slobbery kisses. Today James was crying and she came and gave him a kiss and patted his back, it was really cute! She loves to sit on all the neighbor kids bikes- but not her own of course. She climbs up stairs and then tries to walk down them and has a big scratch to prove it. She loves to be up on the couch and stands by it and cries until someone boosts her up, then she grabs everything off the computer desk and throws it on the floor. Carrie smiles at everyone. Everyone calls her Baby Carrie or Carrie Boo. She still is nursing and not sleeping through the night, but we are working on that after spring break. She is starting to let us know what she wants and has a specific grunt that means "I want that!" She said her first word a few days ago, "Uh-oh." Good first word for here since she creates a lot of uh-ohs in our house. She pulls out anything she can reach. I have to do the dishes and fold the laundry while she is asleep, I don't usually get much done when she is awake. Carrie loves to play with her brothers and usually they let her. She loves to play outside and stands at the door yelling until I take her out. Carrie does not like anything on her head, so hopefully her hair will grow in soon so she can look more like a girl.
We love having this sweet little girl in our family. She truly has a brought a lot of peace and love to our home!

My goodness. She is such a little lady. I can't wait to see her, and the rest of you, again.
