Carter's 1st trip to the Zoo!

Carter and Vick checking out the elephants.

Here is a beautiful male peacock. For those of you who do not know the peacock is the national bird of India. It is symbolic of beauty,grace,pride and mysticism. They are much more beautiful than they sound,they have a very harsh,high pitched call.

Hey Vick glad we can see you!

Carter and Dad checking out the bears. Carter was convinced that every animal we saw was a dog. Might have something to do with dog being his favorite word.

Taking a break from the heat to have some yummy ice cream.

Just kickin back in my stroller for a bit.

CARTER'S 1 YEAR PICTURES!

Our Monday Outing!

So some of the girls have to decided to make Monday a "day out!" They were nice enough to invite Carter and I along for the fun. Our first trip out included park time fun. It was fun for the kids and even nicer for the moms. Carter took off as soon as we got there. Played and played and played oh and yes as most of you have heard, ate the bark. Hey we all could use a little a more fiber in our diets right? :) We had to cancel our Monday outing this week due to crappy weather so I look forward to next Monday.

The BIG 1st Birthday Bash!

So I have been somewhat of a slacker on my blog so I am just getting around to posting pictures from Carter's first birthday party. It was so much fun! All of our amazing family and friends came out to help our little man celebrate. It was great weather,great food and great company. Thank you all for your love and support.

Gotta love the cake....YUMMY!

Hangin out in the back yard with the party-goers. It is so much fun now that Carter can walk because he can hang out with the "big" kids.

Three little ladies who came for the party but were much more interested in Papa Jim's pond.

Teaching them young how to share....so nice!

Gifts galore!!!!

A year of memories!

So as most of you know Carter is turning 1 tomorrow...wow where did the time go. I was sitting here waiting for Grey's Anatomy to start and figured I would post some of my favorite memories of our little guy.


Carter's very first baseball game. He is his cousin Tyler's #1 fan!!
When Carter was only a couple months old the 3 of us took a weekend trip to Park City. This was the first time that he slept through the night. Probably had something to do with the fact that he had his very own queen size bed with 800 thread count sheets that bed would make anyone "sleep like a baby!"
OHHHHH we had plenty of these moments over the past year!!!

Probably one of my all time favorite pictures. Playing in the leaves at grandpa and grandma's house.

Memories cont.

Our little chicken!

Carter's very first Christmas present.

Some of Carter's funniest moments are in the tub. What a yummy little face!!!
