For a bonus, here’s a crazy little thing my younger siblings did:

Nothing like a little Chappa Pie to brighten the day. The Force, er, ‘Gate runs strong in my family.

And, since it’s been a while since our Carson’s birth, perhaps it’s time for an update. Carson Rex is a bundle of energy, a healthy little dynamo. He’s a very happy and content baby, very ticklish, and very quick to smile. He’s on the small side of the growth curve (as in, larger than only 3% of babies his age), as was his sister before him. Great things come in small packages.

He’s learning to army crawl (he doesn’t quite get the idea of using his knees to get around, so he uses his arms and feet), and has perfected a series of baby Wookie growls. (I know, wrong franchise…) he and his sister play very nice together, and are sweet children. They love the shirts that TJ sent to us, too.

As noted in that announcement over at Gateworld, we have a blog up on our family here:

…and there are some good pictures of the kids there. Carson has a natural cowlick at his forehead, not unlike Beckett. We’re happy to play that up when we can, even though we may be the only ones to know why.

Thanks again for the mention, SCB, and for the well wishes!

I didn’t think it was possible but I think he’s even cuter than the original!!!!!!

Congratulations!
