Matthew Duane Carver

We are sad to announce the birth and passing of our second child on December 11, 2010. I was 28 weeks along as we found out our son had passed away. We named him Matthew Duane Carver- Matthew meaning "Gift from God" and Duane after his Grandpa Jerry. What peace we feel as we know he is with our Savior and we will see him again.

We love you Matthew. You will always be in our Hearts.

November

Well I have been slacking and have not been taking very many pictures. So here is what I have for ya!
A few Sundays ago we had a pretty good snow storm...nothing compared to what we have no but Jackson was loving it! He sat at the window and just watched the snow fall.

For Thanksgiving we went to my parents. I didn't really get ANY pictures- But one of the days while we were there my niece Sarah had a Thanksgiving play at school so we went and cheered her on. Here is Jackson and Tannon hanging out

It was soo funny- Jackson just LOVES all of the kids. He definitely has his eyes on Teag alot. I'm sure because we see him a little more often than the others. One evening Teagen was brushing his teeth so Jackson joined him and stood on the little stool right by him. So sweet..

When we got back from Thanksgiving we put up our Christmas tree. I will soon get a better pic of it.

Jackson has definitely been enjoying pulling off ornaments and such..

On the 30th it was Brent and I's 3 YEAR Anniversary! We decided to let Jackson tag along and we went to the best Texas Roadhouse.

I can't believe its been 3 years- and that our little guy is already 1 1/2. He has started nursery and is getting So big! Ohh where does time go????!!!

24 weeks

My mom has been asking if I'm showing...so here it is: 24 weeks today

So here I am at 25 Weeks with Jackson..(i'm not sure how much I will grow in one week)

Jacksons new facination

Well he loves many things--I think we can pretty much say He loves his life right now- Kids got it so easy now days.
Jackson LOVES playing with MY shoes...Sunday after church he came walking into the kitchen with my church shoes on..Yes they are HUGE on him..but he was having the time of his life

Also enjoying himself an OREO- his favorite cookie of all time!

Today it snowed a TON--and is still snowing. I'm pretty sure its going to be cold from here on out..anyways Jackson was Dieing to go outside. I felt so bad because he could hear and see the other kids playing and he wanted to be with them.. So when Brent was done with school we went to the store to get him some gear..

Snow-suit and Boots

Warm coat and gloves though not on in this

He enjoyed the snow a lot--I think he'll have more fun when we actually play in it than just let him test out the snow cloths!

He didn't like falling down though--even though he had gloves on..I think because he was so poofy it was hard to get up..

He looks like such a little man--checkin out the snow

His boots which I love- they are really warm and even have a pull string on back to keep snow out.. All black( though looks purple)

Were excited for this because Next year or I mean the following year our other little guy will be able to play with these outside--as long as were somewhere that gets snow!!

Halloween/Fall Fun

This year a couple nights before Halloween we went to Idaho Falls Boo at the Zoo. We had a pretty good time and Jackson loved seeing the animals. I think his favorite was the Zebra- who in his mind is much like a horse and makes the same noise.

He loved carrying his pumpkin around and wouldn't give it up. Once he figured out that candy was in it thats all he wanted though! But can you blame him?!!

Saturday we did a trunk or treat at our little apartment complex. Here's Jackson the monkey with his girl Bella the tiger!

"Candy"

We had an enjoyable evening and really Jackson did pretty well candy wise for a 1 year old!

This week Friday my neighbor had a good idea to rake up the leafs and take pictures of the kiddos...they had some fun- and we did too :)

Jackson and Bella

Sweet kids...were so lucky to have such great neighbors and friends!!!
