Saturday was a first for a few things. The main "first" for Carter was that he was given his first taste of formula! Christina has been able to pump while she is at work to meet his needs when she is gone, but as Carter grows she is finding it more difficult to replace what he eats the day before. So on Saturday we were on the go and decided we should have him try formula since it is inevitable that he'll start eating it soon. Here is the video of his reaction to the new taste of soy.



We were glad that he seem to eat it just fine, but we're not sure that soy formula is the way to go. Carter acted just fine, but he didn't go "potty" for 2 whole days! We've got a doctor's appointment on Thursday for his 6 month shots, so we'll see what he says, but we might need to try a different type of formula.

Another "first" for our little family was going to the Sundance Festival in Park City. We went with Mike's siblings and it was a fun time. There were tons of people and it was extremely cold, but we all bundled up and had fun walking down main street and eating pizza. We even took Carter! We thought we were the only crazy parents to bring a baby, but by the end of the night we saw two other infants, so we had company in the crazy house. Carter actually did pretty good. He loved just looking at everyone and all the lights, and he really did love being outside. Mike's bicep was killing by the end of the night, but it was worth bringing Carter along with us. We would have missed him too much if we left him.

We left early for Carter's sake since it was so cold and late, but the rest of the group stayed and walked some more. They finally did see one movie star before they left. They got to see Spiderman's boss, J. Jonah Jameson, who is played by J.K. Simmons. Steve pretty much walked side by side with him before he realized who he was.
