A new trick

Warning: This post contains graphic material and may not be suitable for children.

Carter has finally learned how to wrestle monsters into submission (and then eat them because we've taught him not to waste anything). Actually, his new trick is that he grabs everything and puts it into his mouth. His favorite are blankets and towels; we think he spits up just so we have to wipe his mouth.



(Warning: The following image has been edited for content.)


He's also learned that if you take away his blanket/towel/snake, he has other options. In fact, those options might actually be better because they're always there!

Sucking on his hand w/ Grandpa.

Sucking on his hand w/ Grandma.

And sucking on his hand w/ Daddy. Maybe it's his way of seeking comfort after watching BYU get smashed by TCU.

Carter is SO CUTE! And I'm sorry to say BYU didn't look so sharp against the Rebels today, too close...I say they drop out of the national polls this week...

Very nice post with lots of great pictures.
Mary Ann are you really sorry? Your Utah team is looking good.

Excellent trick Carter. We are very impressed. I was so happy when Nora started sucking her thumb. Self-southing is the best!

Great story! Way to go Carter, keep on eating everything. Thanks for editing that one photo :)

He needed something to soothe him after that game. What a smart guy to eat everything!

That last post is really from me, not Grandma Irene, although she is talking about getting internet just so she can check the blogs. It is the first thing she does at our house.
