Sunday Carter and I went to the church talent show for a spaghetti dinner and to watch Austin and Colt sing. They both did an awesome job and I was SO proud!!Silly boy with his mouth full of lemonade!

Fun with old friends!

Saturday morning Carter and I met with John and Elizabeth. They are my long time friends from the church youth group. It was so weird that we are all grown up with kids! It was great to catch up!! John's boys- Nate and Drew, Elizabeth's little boy Gabriel and Carter

After we ate, I let Carter go on the carosel
Here's his money to ride!
He wasn't too sure about it....











And wanted off before it was even over!!

I love this beautiful weather! Carter and I have been spending the time when I get home outside! Yesterday I played around with my camera. These are all uneditied....my weekend is too busy, but I want to post these fun photos!

Carter loves playing basketball on his playset!

My "baby"

Carter has this new thing....he likes to pretend he is a baby. Ever since we went to visit my grandmother at the hospital and stopped by the newborn nursery on our way out, he wants to be a baby. Maybe it's the fact that he saw me get goo-goo eyed over the precious newborns..anyway. He tell me he wants a hat, his bunny and paci. Then he likes me to wrap him up in his blanket. It's so cute. He gets this funny look on his face, like he's trying to be a baby. What a silly boy!

Fun webiste!! Try it out!

My cousin Stacy is on Occupational Therapist and she told me about a great site she uses with her kids. It's www.jacobslessons.com. I tried it out with Carter and he loved it! It's great for Congnitive thinking and it was neat to see the wheels turning in Carter's head. His favorite activities were the Receptive labeling (I started out with the basic, but he could master them all so I moved to the advanced. It was neat because there were some words he didn't know- like saw, but I could see him thinking and using process of elimination and figuring it out-cool!) and then the Identifying Objects- by sound. It's a neat little activity to do together, even if you have preschoolers, because they have Reading and Phonics too. So, please try it out and leave me a comment if you like it too!!

Happy Birthday Ever!!

Carter got the treat of going to Ever's 2nd birthday at MyGym Saturday. He had SUCH a blast!! I am so tempted to take him to classes there. He loves it!

He spent a lot of time at the basketball hoop.....good thing he's getting one of these for his birthday!


Ever loved the ball pit!
Jumping on the trampoline with the birthday boy!

Hanging around!

This slide freaked him out.....you had to lay down to go down...he didn't like that!

Birthday boy!

Singing "Happy Birthday to Ever"
Blowing out candles. Carter didn't want cake, he drank 2 juice boxes....poor thing doesn't get juice reguraly, so it's such a treat!
