We went to Sonny's BBQ tonight for supper. It was all of my crew except for Carson and our good friend Doug was with us. Toby was tired of eating crackers when we finally got our food. Doug was eating ribs and got finished with one and handed it to Toby. I wanted to grab it away but he insisted that Toby would LOVE it. I guess he knew better because Toby went to work on it and gnawed on it like he had never had food before. We were all just laughing at him. 
Brad called me at the house and told me to run outside with the camera if I wanted a good shot. I had no idea what to expect...it was Gage covered in mud and having a great time. He is a mess! Carson was driving him around on the farm on the golf cart and they found a mud hole up by the barn and decided to have a little fun. They are 100% all boy...both of them!
We stripped Gage, hosed him off with the water hose, then sent him to the shower to warm up a bit. After I got him all dressed in dry clothes...he said "hey mama, ta da!" 
Toby is crawling everywhere and is becoming very curious! He was in the other room and I heard a horrible scream. I ran in and there was blood everywhere...I guess he hit is just in the right spot. His poor lip swelled up so bad but it is much better now. Oh and he is doing great since his surgery. You would never know he had surgery with the way he has been acting.
Carson was a dressed in Christmas PJ's and his line for the program was "hey, I see Mary." He did great and sang his song loud and clear. We were so proud of him. 
This is Carson's best buddy at school and we carpool with them to and from school since we have such a long drive each day. Taylor calls him "my Carson" and Carson says "my Taylor." They are a MESS! Taylor is deaf and has cochlear implants and is a lively as any other 5 year old. She is very special to us. 
Carson spent the night with YaYa (Carla) last night. They went to the Ag Museum to look at trains. Afterwards they were going to build a gingerbread house at Carlas. While still at the Ag Museum, Carson found some tools in the general store that he told YaYa that he had to have. Carla asked "why?" Carson replied "because we are building a gingerbread house tonight." He thought he was building a real house. Uncle Sam is a resident OBGYN and Carson found Sam's batman scrub hat and was instantly interrested. 
At Thanksgiving Brad's entire extended family got together. Carson said that blessing infront of this group of 30 people. We were so proud of him. Then this past weekend my family got together at our house. We decided to go ahead and get our family picture because Sam has to work all day on Christmas.
