Welcome to Spring!

This weekend was a beautiful weekend in NC. Friday evening Carter and I walked around and took pictures of some of the flowers that are blooming in our yard.




We enjoyed the outdoors on Saturday by venturing to the park with The Sioss Family.

After the park we had a BBQ at their place. The Teague's joined us for some outdoor fun.


Nana & Granddaddy joined us late afternoon on Sunday. We ventured to Two Guys for dinner, as that is Granddaddy's all-time favorite. We returned home just in time for the ice cream truck. Carter was so excited. This was the 1st time Carter experienced the ice cream man!

Two days in a row!

Carter pee'd on the potty again. Picture courtesy of his teacher - she asked first!

This is NO April Fools joke!

Carter pee'd in the potty at school today! Yay Carter! Such a big boy.

We spotted this little red lizard outside this evening. I had never seen anything like it... so, I rushed in for the camera.


For those of you anxious to see pictures of the big birthday bash -- I'm working on them... all 700 of them. That is what I get for leaving my dear friend Jolene in charge of the photography.

Quick one

When I picked Carter up from school the other day his teacher showed me the funniest picture of Carter sleeping - I just had to share. Apparently, before he will fall asleep, he has to have a baby doll - and his arm must always be touching the doll. As you will notice, Carter is sleeping on his back - he never does that. He is your typical butt in the air sleeper. Crazy how different they are while at school vs. home.
