Mr. Carter...you have stolen my heart!

Welcome to the world, baby Carter!

Sean Carter H.
March 29, 2009 @ 3:16pm
7 lb 7 oz.
19.5" long


Cutest little pregnant gal in labor that I've ever seen! (My big brother Collin, and his wife Ashley)


waiting...waiting...


He's HERE! Proud Granna pointing to Carter's footprints


I'm an AUNT for the first time!!! SO excited!

We couldn't take any pics of Carter while he was in the nursery yesterday...but we were able to snap some great pics this afternoon!

Although we knew the quads were not allowed in the room to see Carter, they waited patiently outside for moral support. They are SO excited to have a new cousin! (Can't you tell? LOL)


Sweet Mama Ashley with baby Carter---we have prayed for you for SOOOOO long, lil buddy!






Granna, Carter, Collin


Proud grandparents!

AUNT SUZ and her NEPHEW!!! (so proud)


Uncle Joe (I love it!)...Look at that hair on Carter---SO CUTE!





Say it with me, Joe: 1, 2, 3---"BABY FEVER?!!!".............

(yes...but not a chance!)

After lovin' on sweet C-man, we took the big kids out to eat again...they behave remarkably well in public (well, for now at least!) Granna and Ethan


Papa and Drew


Poor Col...after one night, he already looks SO tired! LOL. "Unca-Cah" as Sav likes to call him


Carter, you are just the most precious thing ever! Auntie Suz is going to spoil the MESS out of you! Just you wait, lil buddy! Andrew, Ethan, Benjamin and Savannah are SOOOO excited about running around and getting into trouble with you! (just as we did with OUR cousins) Collin and Ashley, you are going to be amazing parents...we are beyond thrilled for you and your new blessing from God.

(And congrats to my cousin, Jason and his wife- Julie..they found out they are expecting a baby girl for Sav to play with today!!! woo hoo! Love you guys!)

Congratulations, Auntie Suz and Uncle Joe! How exciting! Extended family holidays will be so much fun with all those cousins playing together. The pic of Carter all swaddled made me get a twinge of baby fever too, ahh, so precious!

Congrats on becoming an Aunt!! It is very exciting in such a different way. I'm an Aunt as well and I can remember screaming into the phone and the joy I felt when my brother's wife called to tell me she was pregnant! It's cool you kiddos will have a cousin to bond with too. There's nothing like it. Congrats again!

Holly said...

Congrats on becoming an aunt. I have yet to experience that! And I love the name. My brother's name is Sean Carter! Too cool. Your new nephew is adorable!!

Aunt Susan said...

Love these pictures.... Sean Carter is too cute!! I'm so excited for Collin and Ashley!! (Aunt Suz has a Great Ring to It)..The quads are adorable as ever! Take care--Love You!!

JAMIE'S CREW said...

Congrats on Baby Carter!

Just have to comment - I had twins and I remember it being a challenge to eat out at restaurants because it was so hard to find 2 highchairs. Often, people gave us "looks" for 'hogging' the highchairs. Does this happen to you?

Jennifer said...

You must think he looks so big for a newborn. LOL... He's a cutie. My little one was 5 lbs 5 oz at birth and 7+lb babies still look small to me.

Congrats on being an aunt!

Melanie said...

annalee said...

so happy for you on becoming an aunt! one thing is for sure- carter is set on awesome cousins!

Lisa said...

Suzanne - I have been reading your blog for a long time now, and I never knew that Collin was your brother! He and I were friends at A&M - actually, he set up my very first email account for me. Wow - that was a long time ago. :) If you think about it, please tell him that Lisa (Parker) Starr '00 says hello. We're at http://blog.starrfamilyband.com.

Uma and Wil said...

Congratulations! All new and old babies are absolutely precious!

cat said...

Congratulations aunt Suz! I have always said that it was almost as great to become an aunt than it was to become a mom. He is truly adorable

Hilary said...

Aww congrats!! He's a doll :)

Faith said...

Congrats to your entire family, especially Collin and Ashley!! What an awesome way to start the week! Welcome to the world sweet baby Carter. :)

Rachel said...

What wonderful news! Carter is so precious. We are experiencing the baby fever too- 9 friends are expecting and three had babies last week! They are so cute, it makes us want to have children.

Being an Auntie is the best. You get to spoil them in ways you can't with your own children. If our niece wants two cupcakes we get her two cupcakes. We get to be the cool Auntie and Uncle and we don't have to deal with the crazy sugar high when the day is over :-)

Stephanie said...

Congrats Aunt Suz and Uncle Joe (and the parents too of course!!)
He is so adorable!!!

Suzanne,

Hi! I have been following your blog for quite a long time now, and you are such an inspiration to mothers everywhere. Thank you so much!

Actually, I am the best friend of Kimberly, your Aunt Susan's best friend, Judy's daughter. I believe you may have met her once or twice.

I don't know if you are interested in this, but have boxes of clothes that I would love to give to you for your boys. The sizes range from about 24 months to 3T. My son now wears mostly 4T. I never throw good clothes away, only pass them on. I know that buying clothes for 4 kids can get overwhelming. (I grew up in a family of 4.) If you choose not to take them, that's fine. Everything is in excellent condition, of course it's just been worn. It was all been washed. If you should decide you want it, I can give it to Judy to give to your aunt. Just let me know.

Once again, thank you for posting such an amazing and wonderful blog. Have good day.
