This is our Absolute Geeky yet So exciting after shot interview. My dad again is behind the camera and uncle Boyd is the dude with his hat strap strung arossed his forehead holding his elk bugle as a mic. Yes we are all just a little excited. My favorite most ridiculous line of the video would be, "heart was pumpin', it was just a shootin'" HAAH. LOVE IT. Love you dad and uncle Boyder for helping a girl out.

Big Bull Elk-Shot by Breona Carter
Dad is behind the camera and I am next to him in a ground blind that we built out of pine tree limbs. He drops the camera in all the excitement and then does some cow calls to try and slow down the bull. The bull ran about 300 yrds down a steep mountain and then fell. Pretty exciting for me and pops. Also uncle Boyd, who was watching from another spot 65 yds away.

Don't forget it
I re-read my post about lack of sleep and the crazy night schedules that parents are prone to AND....I noticed that I failed to mention something very important! Which I'd like to make clear. . . . .in case I was a little to blunt with the trials of MOMs.
You ready.
*HAVING KIDS is BY FAR the BEST and GREATEST thing that anyone could EVER do!!
Yes I know...
The NO sleep, the throw ups, and all other bodily fluids, crying, breast feeding troubles, pregnancy, LABOR for crying out loud...They still don't out weigh the JOYS of being a mother.! At times, of course, it feels like they might!! and I will vent more of those moments, I'm sure. ...BUT if you take a good deep breath and imagine just for a second, life with out the little rugrats.......You'll see that things are just Perfect the way they are!
Well SHOOT. Now that I've hacked up my right swine lung on the computer keys. hahah.(sorry, that's grose)
I will document just a FEW reasons why motherhood is straight up entertaining...for me anyways!
1. Beckham LOVEs movies now. He dresses up. Yells out lines from them. And is a comedian. From ICE AGE: he will randomly be so excited and say "MOM, Diego is AAALLLLLIIIIIVVVEEE!" or "PINNOCHIO is a real boy NOW!"
2. Roma is a cute spunky little thing that is drawn to ROPES, STRINGS, CORDS and basically anything that could potentially choke or strangle her. She wraps them around and around her, because if we intervene to quickly and stop her she SCREAMS till everyones head is bopping around and we've entered the twilight zone. Once she is wrapped to satisfaction and can't bend an arm or leg she will plea for help. Which then we clap and go get a burger...Kidding. I'll have to get a pic next time she calls mercy.
3. These two will hold hands and bounce around together where ever we are. In church, the park, restaruants.. and of course in the car. Roma has BEEN OBSESSED with holding hands since she was born. So Beckham has done a great job at fulfilling her needs since then.
You ready.

Falling asleep AGAIN.
Dang. I can't seem to get a decent post in these days. My most common excuse for lack of writing is, "I'm Tired."
*Do moms, parents for that matter, EVER reach a point where they consistently sleep through the night.? Seriously. Especially If you have more than one kid.
because......
Zombie wake stages go as follows:
STAGE 1 (new born)-breast feeding every 1.5 to 3 hours ALL night
STAGE 2 (toddler)-falling out of the "big kid" bed and crying
STAGE 3 -(toddler needs more attention?)"MOM, DAD!! MOOOOOM. DAAAAD. I'm scared! By now kid #2 is here and STAGE 1 with added bonuses returns and she now wakes up not only to eat but because of his screaming.
STAGE 4-(POTTY training stage).....this is ME now. Beckham: wimpering/cry with "mom" or "dad" ME: Go to sleep. Beck: wimpering...I have to go pee. ME: then get up and go! Beck and now Roma is waking up: wimpering My dreamy mind: Are you kidding me? so, I get up in hopes that Roma won't wake up the rest of the way and take him to the potty. He goes. I'm SOOOOOO dead tired but his eyes are wide open. Then it's on to ..."rub my back" "I'm scared" " I need milk" "not that blanket the other one." " snack and Movie!"ARE YOU KIDDING ME>?
Dave is a super DAD and gets up probably 50% of the time. Really. Which is absolutely awesome! But, Come on. We're both awake regardless of who gets out of bed. THE neighbors are awake for crying out LOUD.
Lately this is my mom complaint. SLEEP DEPRIVATION IS NOT FOR THE WEAK.
That's why blogging has taken the back burner.
ONE story to add to the 'excitement' of this post.
Last night Dave and I took the kids to the high school volleyball game. Beckham started saying that his head and tummy hurt. Didn't think too much of it. Dave just held Beckham so he could relax. WELL next thing you know poor little Beckham has green chunky throw up volcanoing out of his mouth. ALL over himself, our jackets, Dave, and the bleachers. DISGUSTO. Luckily we weren't near a bunch of people. So we took off with another long night ahead.
He's feeling much better now.
BUT I'm telling you. It's SLEEPLESS NIGHTS IN KAMAS for us.
*It's 1am here and in the last hour. I took Beckham pee three times (not even full on Pees either), rocked him for a bit, rubbed his back and he is still waking up saying that he wants his dad. Guess I'll tell Dave to figure it out?? Any suggestions?
Well Here are some funny faces from the kids I LOVE MOST. Good night.? haha

From my phone, in my bed. Picture update
Dave turned 32 today. Nice sunny, but crispy cold day. He got a boring sweater, a pullup bar, Charlie brown pumpkin movie, some money and more parties to come. Our friend Ang watched the kids while we went to a movie and dinner.
Sept. 29th 1130am
Avery Lynne Carter was born. Beckham and Roma are obviously thrilled to have a new cousin. (Dave's only bro and his wife's 4th kid)
