Here is Carson watching the tv show Super Why. I was able to catch him on camera laughing at a part of the show. So cute!

Fry's/Kroger's shoppers...you can help
Friends and Family,
Do you ever shop at a Fry's or a Kroger's? If so, you can help out my school. Print this page with the barcode below and take it with you to a Fry's or a Kroger's. Do all your normal shopping. Go to the checkout and hand the page your printed to the cashier. Ask them to link your Fry's/Kroger's card to my school. You only have to do this one time a school year. It's very simple and now every time you shop at Fry's/Kroger's, you are helping us earn money. Thank you so much for helping out my school if you're able to.

Hectic Times
Life has become very busy for me again. School is back in session and I now have 33 students...the most I've ever had! My day is crazy with trying to teach the kids while trying to manage their classroom behavior. It's definately more crowd control than anything. I'd like to think I'm still doing a pretty good job of teaching them...I just hope I can reach all students. I have 4 gifted students in my class that I'm hopefully challenging and then I have a lot of low kids too. I'm needing to modify their work and coming up with interventions for them. Whew...I'm very tired at the end of the school day and then I come home and have to find some energy somewhere in me to cook dinner before daddy gets home and play with Carson.
So let's move on to talking about Carson. He is still such a handsome boy and growing so fast! He had his 18 month check up this past Friday and is doing well. This weekend Travis and I took his pacifer away and had him quit cold turkey. My poor boy has been having a hard time not having it. He did well when we were at my parents, but when we came back home he was wanting it at night time. He's getting better overall with not crying so much for it, but he still has his moments. *sigh* It's been really hard on Travis and I too with having to see him so sad. We know we're doing the right thing though and Carson will soon forget all about it. Since he hasn't had it, he's been taking longer to fall asleep at night. The other night I heard him having a conversation with himself through the monitor. Below is a video clip of what I was able to get of his conversation.
Carson is talking a lot more but not speaking clearly to where someone else would understand what he is trying to say. Travis and I can pretty much understand what he tries to tell us. He loves going on walks in the evening with us and loves to run. He enjoys throwing any type of ball and has gotten really good at throwing. We have to remind him not to throw his toys though and only a ball. He can point to his body parts when we ask him to and he loves naming things. He will point everywhere and in his own way ask us what is it. He can now get off our couch the correct way without hurting himself. He is doing better at feeding himself but still gets messy. His favorite meal (from what I can tell) is when we have Skyline Chili. Travis' mom sends us Skyline Chili (yay!) and he loves it just as much and Travis and I do. He has gotten attached to the movie Nemo and sounds so cute when he says, "mo." He wants to watch it ALL the time! Carson is also quite the dancer. Anytime he hears music his body starts to move and groove. I enjoy him everyday and look forward to his hugs and kisses.

Background
I'm going to have a plain background for awhile until the website where I found the background I like fixes their code. I'm hoping it won't take too long.

Yummy Foods
So I'm not the greatest cook and I'm terrible at making a variety of dinners. It seems like we eat the same stuff over and over. Well, I came across this website called Picky Palate. She has so many recipes and they all look so good! You can't help but get hungry when looking through her recipes! So I added her grab button on my blog so you can check it out too if you're looking to add some different recipes.
