Carter's 2nd Halloween

Carter wasn't really digging the Halloween festivities this year... The plan was for him to be a pirate. I got off work late, and Josh had to go back in to work for the evening, so I had to rush to get him from daycare and into his attire. We ended up only visiting Pop's house for the sake of time. His "costume" was made up of things we already had at home. Kid plays with his pirate sword and bandana ALL the time, and the one night I need him to be a good matey and sport his pirate gear, he starts a mutiny. He loved his facial hair, though.

 

What? Jealous of my beard and stache? 

"But I don't WANNA be a PIRATE! I WANNA BE A MAN!"

Smarties are yum

So is Chik-fil-a!

 

We ended our night at Chik-fil-a, and Carter dominated some chicken nuggets and sweet tea. Overall, he had a great time. And he even enjoyed some of Greyson's candy stash over the weekend!

Carter's First Trip to Florida

Last weekend Carter went on his first LONG road trip to Florida. My grandparents live outside of Gainesville. My Papa turned 70 and my Grandma surprised him with a huge party. It was a good time. We got to see all of my mom's family and my dad's mom, and Carter had a blast playing with his cousins and Uncle Greyson.

 

He did really well in the car. I brought a bucket of toys from home and he played or slept the whole drive - 7 hours!

 

 

At the party.... he got a balloon so he was pleased as punch. 

 

 

We ate lunch at the Ivy House Saturday after driving around for 2 hours so Carter would nap...

 

 

Meemer love

 

 

This was lunch. YUM. Carter loved the mac n cheese.

Roll Tide! How did this happen in Gator Country?

 

 

 

He was exhausted when we got home because he didn't want to sleep while we were there. He's really nosey and wanted to play... sleep did NOT come easily... for anyone! :)
