Tricks!

These videos were taken MONTHS ago, but I thought they were cute enough to share on the blog!

I always thought it was funny that toys for infants would have a "Spanish" option on them - like a 6 month old would care how you say certain things in Spanish. Well, Levi could care less, but Carter has picked up on the Spanish words that Levi's exersaucer says.



I think my mom's goal in life to to teach Levi all of his tricks. It seems like every Thursday I go to pick the boys up after work, Levi has a new trick. A couple months ago, she had successfully taught him how to clap. He is a pro at it now, but I love how he has one hand straigh and the other one balled into a fist.

Carter is THREE!

I cannot believe my baby is THREE! We celebrated his birthday with some of Carter's favorite people a few days before his actual birthday. He requested a "wace car" theme, so that is what we went with!

Goody bags for his friends!
We had his party in the morning, so we served brunch. It was super easy and yummy!

The birthday boy ready for his friends to arrive!

Greeting at the door!

The men taking over the kitchen - close to the coffee and food. Typical :)

After everyone was there, we started with our activity - race car painting!

It was a little messy, but I think the kids enjoyed it!

What kid doesn't enjoy eating a cupcake before lunch?!

Levi was sleeping during most of the party, but he woke up just in time to watch his big brother open presents.

Carter was so excited to have all of his friends at his house to play with him for the afternoon - oh, and I'm pretty sure he enjoyed all the presents as well! It was a great day celebrating our little guy!

Carter, I am so proud of you and SO blessed to be your Mommy. Thank you for being the sweetest, funniest, craziest boy I could ever ask for! I love you so much!

Halloween 2011

Nothing like posting about Halloween in JANUARY. Whoops! Holidays/Birthday party planning got the best of me.

BUT, better late than never, right? Here are my sweet boys ready to head to the Harvest Festival at church!
This NEVER happens - both of them smiling?! What?!Ready to have some fun! This was before Levi had a complete and total meltdown over the noise and commotion. He was a little out of his element, and cried the saddest/panicy cry ever. Thankfully it was short lived!Carter in his beloved bounce house. I swear we just need to purchase one of these. Totally obsessed.Gigi came to join in on the fun/help me wrangle the boys! Daddy was doing the cake auction for most of the night, so I was a single parent! So thankful for familial help!

Carter showing off his throwing skills! Roller coaster time!

Love this picture! He was having a blast!!

Me and my boys on the hayride! A couple of cheesy smiles - Levi was sneakily trying to snatch a cupcake off the table!

The loot!

The boys had a great time! Can't wait for next year!
