Bowling Carter style

Carter's grandma Widner got him a bowling set awhile ago. He has recently started "bowling," Carter style. It is more of an attack than rolling the ball, but lots of fun to play!

First zoo trip of the season

We woke up Friday morning to grey skies and rain. After Carter's nap the sun came out and we decided to try the zoo. I wasn't sure Carter would be all too happy about being in his stroller for so long, but he loved it! I'm excited to go back when all the animals are out to see how much Mr. Bubba enjoys that.

Off to the zoo.


Mesmerized by the jungle waterfall.


The flash is TOO bright mama.


"Whoa!" look at that.

So many things to look at, but I'd rather look at dad. :)

Check out those fish!

What are you doing goat?

Happy boy!

When Carter is happy he makes this little "dubadubaduba" sound. He also has picked up a new word -- whoa -- which is one of the cutest things in the world. Enjoy!

Sun shiny day

The weather has been gorgeous this week -- what a great week for Spring Break! It has been so nice for Carter to get out and run (and I mean run) around.

Watch Carter J climb in his swing, turn around, and say "wee." :)

Random weekend shots

Hello there! Carter J can be so silly!


We have decided to give Carter his own official place at the table. It's great except when he starts sweeping food off his mat on to the floor.


This is how you will find Carter most days -- a marker in his hand, running around, not coloring! :)

The sun is shining

and we could finally get outside for awhile.

SO polite

Carter has learned to say please (with a little prompting :)
