http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ A (mostly) photo blog chronicling the adventures of not just any baby...but our baby. en-us 2008-08-26T21:51:00-05:00 hourly 1 2000-01-01T12:00+00:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/022097.html We've gotten a lot of comments, questions, and puzzled looks about Sara James' and Smith's maternal grandfather's given title, "Piper." A little background is necessary to fully understand it. Back when we first got pregnant, there was some discussion as... 22097@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-08-26T21:51:00-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/022096.html Sara James started pre-school this week, and it's safe to say that she loves it! Three mornings a week she'll be learning, laughing, and giving her mama a little time to hang out with Smith and hopefully get some rest.... 22096@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-08-26T21:27:20-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/022095.html Smith is growing rapidly; faster in fact than we can keep up with. With the exception of a few sleepless nights (okay, maybe more than a few), he has been fantastic! It's hard to believe that he'll be one month... 22095@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-08-26T21:17:24-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/021748.html One of the unique stories that is now woven into Smith's life (and will no doubt be told to him over and over as he grows up!) is that he shares a birthday with his maternal grandmother. August 1st is... 21748@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-08-07T20:52:48-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/021696.html Sara James loves her cousins, Carver and Springer, and was thrilled (to the point of not taking her afternoon nap) when we told her they were coming to meet Smith. On one of my failed attempts to get her to... 21696@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-08-04T22:04:20-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/021695.html As a means of filling in the gaps, here's a quick review of our time in the hospital. We arrived at 7:30AM Friday morning, and were out by about 1:00PM Sunday afternoon. As with Sara James, this was a great... 21695@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-08-04T21:31:45-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/021648.html The wireless connection here at the hospital isn't the fastest, so we'll be adding more pictures in the days to come, however, we would like to introduce you to Emerson Smith Carver! Weighing in at 8 pounds, 9 ounces, and... 21648@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-08-01T20:21:37-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/021577.html It's more than just a terribly awesome song by Europe...it's exactly where our family of four (I'm not going to leave Mackenzie the Dog out...she's dealing with enough change as it is) finds itself. After 39 long weeks of pregnancy,... 21577@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-07-29T20:58:06-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/021409.html 21409@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-07-20T16:26:57-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/021245.html I came home on Friday afternoon just as Sara James was waking up from her nap. As usual, she woke up with boundless energy, and two words: pink shoes. She also wanted her fish visor, and to go outside (despite... 21245@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-07-13T14:38:54-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/021198.html We spent last weekend in Columbus celebrating the 4th (along with a wedding shower for our friends Brad and Sally). Although she watched the fireworks on the Marietta Square last year, and the year before, we were unsure how she... 21198@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-07-10T16:49:00-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/021169.html 21169@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-07-08T22:10:06-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/021168.html Part of playing catch-up is picking up where you left off, and in my effort to bring the ol' family blog current, I'm doing just that. One month ago, my neice and nephew spent the weekend with us. Sara James... 21168@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-07-08T21:08:28-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/020026.html Regardless of how hard it is for us to believe, our little girl is now a wild and wonderful two year-old. We celebrated her second birthday the first weekend of the month, and gratefully we had a variety of cameras... 20026@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-05-14T22:00:55-05:00 http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/archives/019551.html Earlier this month, we slipped out of town for a long weekend in Charlotte with the Hiatt's. For weeks leading up to our trip, we worked with SJC on the names: Uncle Giorgio, Aunt Amanda, Carver and Springer (and Lucy... 19551@http://thecarvers.atlblogs.com/ 2008-04-21T21:01:57-05:00
