Carter's First Year!!

So Today is my Big Boy's Second Birthday!!! How did we ever get so lucky to become the parents of this AMAZING boy? He is the sweetest, most loving and most determined little boy. And he LOVES to cuddle!! He is constantly saying "Hold You" which melts my heart! How in the world was I laying in a hospital bed right now while my boys were at Lebonheur two years ago. It has FLOWN by!! (another post on that later) I have been looking back at old pics of Carter and decided to do collages of all of my favorite pics of him. Tonight I only got through the first year. So I will try to do year two this weekend. I also need to look at his birthday party pics, pics of our day on his birthday and do a post on those as well. I'm just a little behind. :)

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Today we started off our day bright and early. Woke up at 7am to take Carter to Preschool. He had a wonderful day playing with his friends and had his first ever V-Day Party, complete with those yummy cake cookies with frosting and sprinkles.
While he was in school I went to Sheffield's Antique mall to look for a new computer desk!! Thats right, Webb got me a new 21.5 inch, 1 TB IMAC for my Birthday and Valentines Day!!! I am soo blessed. We both have been using VERY old Laptops that have absolutely no memory. I have to upload all my pics every three months to my external hardrive, so that my computer won't crash and so that it isn't slow as Christmas. WELL NO MORE!!! I am also so excited that I have the perfect monitor to edit my pics on! At first I was a little reluctant to get a desktop, bc I didn't want to be all by myself in the office, but we got an awesome deal on an adorable desk and chair, so we put them in our LR/DR. PERFECT solution!!! Also, by having a desktop, I won't be able to bring it to bed with me or sit on the couch for hours at a time at night to use it. Did I mention how sexy and sleek this thing is. Can ya tell I'm a little excited? LOL.
Anyways so after I picked C up we headed home for lunch and his nap. I cleaned up and did some laundry and then when he woke up we headed to the grocery. Got lots of dinner and made Webb a Yummy Valentine's dinner. Consisted of My parent's famous Pork Tenderloin, Dirty Rice, and Green Peas. And Chocolate covered Strawberries for Dessert. Yummy! We also got Webb a Ralph Lauren Polo for V-day. I actually put it on carter and carried him into the house with it. LOL, he looked adorable! and we got Carter a card and a set of 5 little Mickey hotwheel cars. He has really gotten into hotwheels the last few weeks. and he is obsessed with Mickey, so when I saw those they were perfect. I just had to carry on tradition that my parent's started by getting us a card and a little something on V-Day.
Wish I didn't have to work tonight, but I am so lucky to have my two men in my life and that makes my V-Day perfect!! Thank you Webb for being my best friend and being such an amazing father to our Son!! Can't believe we have spent 10 Valentine's days together. Can't wait to spend the next 50+ more together!!!
On another note- we went out with Ashley and Brent(without the kids) for my birthday dinner to Bonefish on Friday night. We had a BLAST and I haven't laughed that long in a LONG time!! Webb and I also went to a movie afterwards, which was adorable and fun!
I will update with my Valentine's Pics later- I can't upload them from work, but wanted to wish everyone a HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!!

Pajama Day......

When Momma doesn't get much sleep the night before, we have a lazy pajama day. The way I figure, with it being as cold as it is outside why get out of our PJ's unless we are going somewhere. So on Wednesday we didn't get out of our pajamas until 4pm, lol. We did have fun playing with Play-doh and with out lego table. he is starting to get the hang of pushing the little car around the track and gets so excited and claps when it goes around. Too cute. Still not really sure what to do with the play-doh, mainly likes to just take out, put back in and take the top on and off.

Loves his little Mickey books!!! (Well anything Mickey actually!)

Look at this mess! Oh well, I will clean it up when he goes off to college!!! Growing to fast to spend all day cleaning! would rather PLAY!!

LOVE that bottom photo on the Left for some reason! Just adorable! As much as we love our Pajama days, we are ready for Spring and to get outside and play all day!!!

Outside!

I hear this word constantly. Carter LOVES to be outside and we have been able to spend a few days out lately. But it didn't last long!! It was back in the 20's today and Huge gusts of wind. I am so sick of this weather. Ever since October carter has had a rattly cough that will not go away. We are so ready for spring days. Spending days having picnics, sliding, swinging, visiting animals at the zoo, etc. BRING on spring!! According to the groundhog today 6 weeks until Spring!! Lets all hope he is right!!! Can't believe Carter's birthday is in a little over 2 weeks. EEEKKK!!! So much to do in so little time! Gotta get busy!! Tomorrow(or should I say today) we are going to try to head to the children's museum to play! Hope to get a couple hours of sleep before then!
Will try to take some pics!
