Daddy's Disney Marathon!

Here's what Daddy ate the night before the big race. Here's Daddy's stuff all laid out the night before. He wouldn't let me have even ONE of his energy gels. I think it would have been fun. I coulda been SuperCate!Here I am congratulating Daddy at the finish line with a big kiss! I got my big smile on for the family shot.

MiaBeth just slept through the whole thing. I'm sure she was really proud, on the inside. Here's Daddy with his big Mickey Mouse medal.

Daddy was running this race as a fundraiser for Arkansas Children's Hospital. The awesome people who listen to Daddy on KDQN donated more than $3,000 for the kids! My Uncle David (actually Mommy's Uncle David) is the C.O.O. at Children's and was there in Orlando to watch Daddy finish the race.

Daddy's Big Run...

This is Daddy about 3 weeks ago, at the end of a 12 mile run here at the house. We leave Thursday morning for Disney World, where Daddy's going to run the Disney World Marathon! He's doing it as a fundraiser for Children's Hospital. The race is this Sunday morning, and Daddy gets to run through all the parks. Me, Mommy and Mia Beth will be there to see him at the finish line and get stinky hugs from Daddy. And Uncle David, Aunt Jennifer and Amy will be there too. It's going to be tons of fun!

Ross Family Christmas!

Here's me and MiaBeth with Daddy at the Ross's house Christmas afternoon, all piled up on the couch. Here's me and Mommy playing with Angel's High School Musical dance mat game. Mommy made a 96!

Here's me and Daddy having some quiet time, working a puzzle.

MiaBeth had too much fun. She snuggled up with a football that Ben got for Christmas.

Here's me and Mommy, opening presents together.

Here's MiaBeth with Nana, grinning at a big bear that Santa brought her.

This was Ben's rocking horse, but he wasn't using it at the time.

Look at all this stuff that Santa brought me! I had no idea I had been so good last year. It kinda lowers the bar for my behavior next year...Angel hung out with MiaBeth for a while.

I got this funny Rudolph nose in my stocking.

Carlton Family Christmas!

So here I am on Christmas morning (actually Christmas Eve afternoon) using one of my new presents. It's a huge coloring book. Here's MiaBeth having a big ol' time with Mamee and PapaJoe.

I'm not sure exactly what's going on here. I do know that Abbie loves me very much. This picture was not staged in any way.

Here are all of us Carlton grandkids, just hanging out on the stairs. This is as far up the stairs as we're allowed to go.

Here's Mommy helping me open my set of Princesses. I call them all Cinderella. It's easier than learning all their names.

Here's me and Rex fighting over a gift bag.

Here's me, trying to do what appears to be a smile.

Here's MiaBeth with AuntJenn. MiaBeth pretty much just got held the whole Christmastime.

Here's me and Rex fighting over a Sonic drink.

Here's me about to whack Rex in the back with a toy car.

Here's Abbie introducing MiaBeth to MinnieMouse. Silly Abbie. MiaBeth already knows MinnieMouse.

Here's me and UncleRich, just hanging out. It looks like UncleRich is telling a really boring story, which is probably what was going on.

Here's me pushing Rex in the back.

And then after all the stealing, pushing and whacking, me and Rex finally made our peace.

Mia Beth at Two Months!

Well, our little Mia Beth is two months old! This is a picture of her on her 2/12th of a year birthday! This is me, just being generally adorable!

And Mommy says this picture has to go in both mine and Mia Beth's wedding slide shows. She loves it because we're just laughin' laughin'!

This is me and my handsome Daddy, on our way out the door for church! Don't you love my big girl coat?

Around the house!

This is me decorating me for Christmas. I love to put shoes and such on my hands! Sometimes I like to take my shoes and socks off in church and put my goldfish crackers in my socks and then eat them from my socks. Mom says I'm a disgusting creature. This next picture was taken on Cheney's 6th birthday. We had a little party for her and she got a new hoodie and some dental treats for her stanky breath.

Here's Mia Beth, all grinny. I thinks she's oh so cute!

In this picture you can tell that she looks lots and lots like Daddy!

Oh, and here's me doing one of my chores. I always put away Mom's Diet Cokes, wishing for the day when she'll finally learn to share them with me.

My Bill Walton Impersonation...

Daddy says that most of you younger readers won't get this, but he says I looked just like Bill Walton the other night. I got one of MiaBeth's headbands and wore it a little bit low on my brow. In case you couldn't remember what he looked like back in the day, here's a picture of Mr. Bill Walton. Okay, I guess Daddy does kinda have a point.
