Cake day with Auntie Alisha

Auntie Alisha came on Friday after Carter's birthday to celebrate with him. She brought him the coolest GIANT cupcake baking pan, and together they constructed an amazingly large and amazingly delicious cupcake.
Carter had a great time! Thanks Auntie Alisha.

Carter turned 3!

On January 12th, Carter turned 3. I cannot believe this little miracle is growing up so fast.

Here are some pictures from the little party we had and also some pictures of him with is gifts. Grandma and Grandpa gave him 2 goldfish. Carter named them Nemo & Nemo. We are having a hard time deciphering which one is which.

He also got a pair of red rubber boots for our spring mud walks. He wore the boots for days.

Carter and his best friend, taking a nap.

Dance party on New Year's Eve. The meaning of "dance party" sure changes once you and all of your friends have kids. I wouldn't trade it for anything though.

Pizza party for New Years. Boys, boys, boys!

More December pics

Christmas, etc.

Carter put the lights on. Something look "odd" to you?

Did I mention Scout thinks she is a human?

Where does the time go?

Ok. I realize again, I've been a bad "blogger" the past 2 months, but seriously...where does the time go?

I've decided to stop waiting for big "blog" worthy events and just start posting random pics and comments as they come. Hope you can adjust to this transition and will still enjoy peeking in on us from time to time.

Carter has 1 chore so far and that is to feed Scout.

He does an excellent job!

This is a funny picture. Look for the 2 little lights.

Bryan and Carter went on a "walk-about" after dark one evening.

Two little headlamp lights walking down the driveway. One was up in there air about 6 1/2 feet, the other juts a mere 3 feet off the ground. A site I never want to forget.
