Here I am, January 7th 2011... marking yet another milestone in Carter's life. Today, he stood up for the first time on his own. I was leaning against a chair, sitting on the floor on my phone, while he was sitting next to me. Apparently he realllllly wanted my phone because I glanced up at him & realized he was completely standing up. He finally figured out how to keep his legs sturdy, & he stood! Absolutely a bittersweet moment. I know soon he will be crawling & I will never get to sit down. I am so proud of him though. He knew he did something good because when I was applauding him, he couldn't wipe the smile off his face.

God, how much I love his big, gummy smiles. I think he's actively teething now. His cheeks have been rosy, he's been drooling more than normal & very clingy lately. Not to mention fussy at random times for no apparent reason. I'm going to miss his big, toothless smile!

I dyed my hair last night, it's pretty much black. I'm really happy with it, I love my hair dark. I'll post pictures soon enough.

Holy crap, I just realized I turn 21 in 1 month & 19 days. Anyone have any good drink recommendations? (; I've drank before but nothing "real" like you can order at a bar, so I'm rather exciting to order & drink my first legal alcoholic beverage. 

I start school back up on Monday. Yesterday my textbooks arrived, oh yay. All 13lbs & 10oz of freaking textbooks. Shoot me now?

We're getting hit pretty hard with snow right now. Roads suck to drive in. I'm very glad I'm at home, in my bed, next to my sleeping handsome. Maybe David & I will go to the movies tonight? All we need is a babysitter. I'm craving some good ass movie theater popcorn. Yummmm! I can smell it now.
