So we went to the circus and spent way too much money! With coupons it cost $17.00 per adult! I wanted to choke! But I couldn't give up Carter having "an experience" even though he most likely will not remember it! It was fun though.
This is the only picture that came out visible. All of my other pictures were too dark. Oh well...this was Carter's favorite part of the whole show. We had to stand back here though...it costs 8.00 to get closer!

I walked in on Carter to find him reading "American Baby"...hhmmmm...
Notice the mop he is sportin' on his head!
Now Daddy cut his hair and it resembles Jim Carrey on "Dumb and Dumber"...next time we know to taper the bangs and not cut straight across...hahaha..at least his hair grows super fast!
Her is Carter's cast. The whole time the doctor was putting it on Carter kept saying "Cool!" and giggling. He was such a good boy during the whole thing. The nurse let him pick green or blue and you can see which he picked! He is too cute!
Our Most Favorite People (well some of them;)
Nate and Megan and Halle came to visit and it was sure nice to have them around for a little while. Carter just adores Halle and talks about her non-stop. He chats with her on imaginary phone conversations and at night as he is trying to go to sleep he will say "Halle Sleep?" to me. "Yep, Halle is sleeping too!"...and then he will say "Paw Paw sleep?" ..yep! and he will go through roll call...Grandma, Jake, Nate, Megan, Casey, and Cody..and then start over again. I want him to just go to sleep...but I think it is so cute that he is just thinking about all of his family that he loves!

Here are the kiddos enjoying lunch at Texas Roadhouse
Enjoying the sunniest and warmest day of the year so far!
This was taken at the beginning of April when Carter and I went to Twin for the weekend. Carter is still sportin' his mop! The kids sat down to "Monsters Inc." and a good bowl of popcorn. I think it entertained them for 2.564 minutes.
Josh teaching Carter how to golf!
Carter and his shadow surveying the ground for his best shot!
A couple days later he is at it again!
This was the picture to show his haircut...but I don't want to move it around and put it in order...blah. Blogger needs to come up with a better way to do pictures!
Carter is 22 months now. His favorite thing to say lately is "Go Away!" He says it all the time and hurts Josh's and my feelings! He has mastered counting to 10 and I often hear him off in some room of the house counting as he is "working". He still loves to JUMP JUMP JUMP and do somersaults!! We sing many songs and he knows many of the words to most of them...such as "Row Row Row Your Boat" "Sunbeam" "Bumble Bee" "BINGO" "Old MacDonald" ...and so on.Another new thing he says a lot is "Scare me"...he now knows what it means to be scared and will tell me when he feels that way. He is scared of our downstairs storage room where our washer and dryer is. That is my fault...he shut us in there when the lights were off and I growled...now he doesn't even want to go downstairs at all. What a mean mommy... jeez!! poor little man.
This little guys loves candy and talks about it more than anyone I know. He will ask for candy the first thing in the morning and all through the day and before going to bed at night. He makes me laugh. I usually just have to say "Sorry bud, no candy, all gone." and then he will walk around saying "Candy all gone."...he will pick candy over anything! We went to the arcade a while back and won some tickets and I wanted him to pick a toy....but nope...he picked a ring pop and tootsie rolls...how did he know the ring pop was candy?!?!?
Carter loves to be outside and will stay out there all day and night if we would let him. He doesn't care if it is freezing or windy he just wants to be outside! Carter also loves to change the DVDs in the player over and over again and because of this love he has scratched a good number of DVDs...thanks bud! ;)
He still adores Cody and will pick him over everyone if he is in the room. He loves Casey too and sure loves when he gets to see Grandma, Paw Paw, and Jake. He loves visitors!!
He makes sure I know my phone is ringing, wakes up bright and early every morning and pokes me and prods me and steam rolls Josh, likes to say the prayer with us, and likes to be in whatever room we are. He is our little buddy and as I have been thinking about moving and the people and places we have to leave behind I just keep thinking how lucky we are that we get to take Carter wherever we go! I love you Buddy!
Kind of a random video of our lunch at Texas Roadhouse. I got it out to film Carter making sour faces while eating limes(and he obviously objected to me filming him)...but he was over it mostly by the time I got it going. Josh had mashed potatoes, applesauce, chili, and green beans because of his wisdom teeth. My salad was awesome! My big bro. got the ribs...very manly indeed and Megan had a delicious Chicken Fried Steak. It was all so yummy but fun just being together!!
