Ssssss-gat? That's a Ticket

My mom visited with us over the weekend, and before leaving she decided to give Carter 5 $1 bills. She was hoping that he could spend his money at the gift shop later in the day when Dan took him to the Planetarium in Chapel Hill. Until then, I could honestly tell you Carter couldn't care less about money.

He was so cute. He walked around the house showing everyone his "tickets". He would give me a dollar and tell me, "Here's your ticket Mommy". He spent his tickets on a magnifying glass, a flashlight and a small dinosaur. Pretty good for $5, huh?

Carter will be turning 3 on the 9th of January, and he continues to amaze me with his antics. He acts like such a little man with the things he says. He loves to come up to us slowly, stroke our face while looking into our eyes, and saying "I love you" and then he places the most gentle kiss on our face. It's so sweet.

Camden is growing cuter and cuter by the day, if that's even possible! (I'm partial) He has just gotten his seventh tooth (ouch!) and he is starting to talk quite a bit and he points to everything. He practices using sign language to communicate with us a bit, which helps! He takes in the world around him by asking "Ssssss-gat", "Dat" and "Gat" which all mean "what's that?" while pointing to various objects. His other words include "Bee-bee" (baby), cup, and of course Mommy and Daddy. In addition to talking, unfortunately, Camden has also started to throw hints of temper tantrums. I am not looking forward to this faze in his life.

We love our boys!!!
