Animals!

Carter's favorite new toys come courtsey of my dear friend, Caroline. Last week we received a big plastic box of plastic animals. He is in LOVE. Watch him name some of his new friends. :)

First haircut!

I've been trying to put it off, but it was finally time to cute off those adorable baby locks and get a haircut. It was hard on mom, and he was a little squirmy, but it is done and he looks like such a big boy now!


Getting ready to go.


First snip!
(Pay no attention to me, I didn't know I would be the booster, but he was NOT interested in that so mom got to do the job!)







All done.


What a big boy :)

Backyard games

With the cooler weather we have been able to enjoy our backyard so much. Carter loves to run and run from one end of the yard to "base" (the fence -- I have no idea where he got the word base, probably daycare :) Yesterday his favorite game was stealing daddy's hat.






I love 'matoes!

Yesterday, before it got too hot (it is suppose to be in the upper 90s for like three days), we headed to the Lincoln Children's Zoo. It's slogan is learn first hand and all the windows and access to animals is suppose to be at a child's level. Although much smaller than the Omaha zoo, we loved it. Carter could get out of his stroller and really explore things. He loved watching the ducks fight, getting up close to a monkey, and seeing bats flying right in front of him. There are also lots of play areas, which he loved as well. It is about an hour away, so we probably won't get to it often, but it was definitely worth the drive!


Check out those bats.


I took this picture over the fence of him in awe of the ducks. They were fighting over who got to be in the tub o water.


Hi quackers.


Checking out the goats.


Riding on the giant caterpillar outside the butterfly exhibit.


That's a big turtle.


Playing on the giant spiderweb.


He is getting to be a good climber.


Such a cute little froggie!


Pretty cute caterpillar too!
