happy birthday carter

Three years ago today...a tiny precious spirit was born into our family. Our family was complete. My arms were aching no longer. 

How could something so small and precious turn into THIS?! Nothing in this world could have prepared me for the BLESSINGS in store...

Carter is ALL BOY.  Loving Dirt.  Farts. Bodily functions of any kind.  Oh boy.  How am I to survive this child?

He's blue.  He was NOT having a very good day. 

He was REALLY BLUE.

Both of his hands were BLUE...

My sink was blue, my cup was blue, my contacts were blue, my toothbrush was blue, everything in a foot-radius was BLUE!

After we got it all off his hands, the sparkles remained.  For a few days at least...that's what he gets for being BLUE! And that is all I can show for my BRAND NEW BOTTLE of nail polish.  Boy, did my bathroom stink.  We were all high for a couple days. Silly kid!

Just a couple things about him on his 3rd birthday:

-loves tractors, cars and Star Wars

-still getting used to Nursery

-TERRIFIED of ants (he got eaten alive in an ant hill)

-PETRIFIED of jets and fireworks (for being "all boy" he's sure a scaredy cat!)

-loves sound effects

-can burp best out of all three kids (and darn proud of it!)

Happy Birthday to my sweet precious baby boy! You are truly the light of my life, the cringe in my face and the wrinkles in my eyes. I love you with every piece of my heart. Happy Birthday Dear One!
