my baby buddha, all grown up

as i dressed Carter this morning, i reminded him how this shirt was one he wore in the hospital and he was practically swimming in it. "even though it's way too big for you" i said, "we are putting you in this because we don't care about this shirt. and since this is the 3rd shirt i am putting on you this morning i think that's a sign that it's a day to wear clothes we don't care about..."



i put the shirt on him and voila, we had a baby Buddha on our hands. Carter's tummy was pokin' out of this shirt all day. i don't know what i was expecting. i know he is obviously bigger than he was in the hospital but this much bigger!? it put things into perspective. my once "teeny teeny" baby has graduated to now "teeny" baby status.
 


my little baby. all grown up...almost ;)
his belly is getting rounder, his hair has gotten lighter, his eyelashes are darker and much longer, i still think he has my eye shape, daron's lips and mouth definitely and a nose that is in between. that eye color is still in question. both blue and brown are up for grabs. of course, we could lose the dark hair too... :( ha i don't know why i have become attached to this dark hair. daron thinks it's going to fall out and be blonde like him and of course that he is going to have blue eyes...like him. i'm predicting a boy with dirty blonde hair annnddd i haven't decided on his eyes.

i find it funny that daron and i would wonder/guess/fantasize my entire pregnancy of what our little baby was going to look like and now, here he is! and we are still guessing. who knew?
