Flashback from Carsyn's 1st Year

Filed Under: Family

Carsyn is a year old today. I can hardly believe it. Where has the past year gone? In some ways it has seemed to drag on, but in other ways it has flown by. I am hoping to do a cake smash photo shoot with him this week. {if I can ever kick this cold/cough to the curb}. I saw on Carsyn’s top gum today a little, tiny bit of blood. Maybe his top teeth are coming and that could be the cause of his fussiness. I have been working on party stuff. Not a lot of big things to do, but I do have lots of little things. I am getting some help from my mom and my mil. So hopefully I won’t get too stressed. I know he is only a year and won’t remember it anyways, but I am so excited about the Dr. Seuss theme.

 

Anyways on to the pictures. Click on the first one, then you can scroll through them all to see how much he has changed. You can also see how much my photography has improved. Ha ha!

    It probably is his teeth : ( Poor guy! We are going through the same thing! You should get an amber teething necklace. It's the ONLY thing that helps my LO with his teething pain. And OMG!!!! I LOVE the pictures! I didn't know you cloth diapered! Do you still do it? I love the diaper in the 1 month pictures. Is it a Nifty Nappy? He is SO freakin cute <3
