Easter & Carson is 2 months old!

Spring has sprung! It's one of my favorite times of the year. It's been great to get outside with the kids. Callie requested that the easter bunny bring her a soccer ball this year. She LOVED Easter and everything about it..from egg hunts and playing with her friends at church she really had a blast. A little update on the big sister. Her favorite TV show is Peppa Pig, she loves to sing all the time, and has the perfect level of sassiness to handle whatever the world throws at her.

Carson is now 2 months old! He's starting to swat at things on his play mat, roll on his side from his back, smile when you talk to him, and sleeps about 7 hours a night. A few days before his 2 month birthday at his check up he weighed in at 11 pounds and 6 ounces and was 23 inches long! The pediatrician said he would be as tall as his daddy based on his measurements now. We might have a little Tar Heel on our hands :) 

Here are some pictures from the last month..hope you enjoy :) 

















 We have started a new tradition in the Joyner house and would like to invite any family or friends to join us. We have started a "Dear Callie" & "Dear Carson" box. If you would like the write a letter to them to open one day when they are all grown up please do :)

Carson is 1 month old!

We wanted to check in with everyone & share some pictures. Last week we celebrated 1 month since we became a family of 4 or 5 if you ask Dexter. I stumbled across a quote that described this phase of life perfectly.."The days are long, but the years are short." 

Carson went for his 1 month check up yesterday and weighed in at 9 pounds 13 ounces and 21.5 inches long! He has almost gained 3.5 pounds since he was born. Someone is going to be a big boy! We hope everyone enjoys some of our favorite pictures from the last month and huge shout out to Heather McGinnis Photography for the awesome newborn pictures. If you live in the Triad you have to check her out!







Post weigh in. Fat & happy about it!


1st awake smile on camera today!
