So I'm sitting at the computer doing my best to get caught up on the never ending piles of paperwork. The house is silent, both kids are taking naps after a fun morning at the Science Museum with Aunt Brookie, Cousin Chesney (today's her first birthday...Happy Birthday Chesney!) and Gran.
A few moments ago I hear the swoosh-swoosh-swoosh of movement down the stairs and my sweet little boy appears and asks if he can sit in my lap. I clear the way and let him climb up. In no time he is asleep again. He's hot and sweaty, and truth be told, the boy I will always picture in my mind as a baby hardly fits in my lap anymore. Instead of thinking about how uncomfortable I am and he must be, though, I'm choosing to cherish this moment. Because my sweet boy is sound asleep in my lap and I know moments like this won't happen much longer. Carter Michael - I love you more than life.
Please excuse the mess in the background...I told you I was working on it!

Katie, he's SO big! I just can't believe it. It seems like yesterday Brookie was calling to say she was going to be an aunt for the first time. What a sweet moment and a great reminder to us all to cherish the little moments:) Love you!
Easily the sweetest thing I have seen today. Seriously made me teary. I was trying to entertain AK in the doctors office the week and I picked her up like a baby and sang to her and literally, her legs wrapped around me. It broke my heart. I cannot believe he would crawl up in your lap and actually sleep. Amazing. A moment definitely to be cherished. Love and miss you tons!!!
pure sweetness!
