Carter's 1st Birthday Party



Carter was a little sleepy when we first gave him his cake. He took a lick of frosting, but didn't seem that interested. But then we tried again a little later - and he dove right in! It was so fun to have Mom and Carrie in town for the night. I told Allison earlier in the day that Mom and Carrie would be here after she wakes up from a nap (Mom's sneaky way of trying to get her to nap). She was so excited and said - Oh, no - I need to take a nap! She ran to her bed, pulled up her covers, closed her eyes - and then a few moments later I hear her call out - Mom, I'm awake! I had to explain that Mom and Carrie weren't quite there yet - but that maybe she should try again to go to sleep. She finally did take a nap and was happy and rested for the party that night! Yay!

Hi Amber! It's so good to hear from you! How are you doing? Are you in Logan? I have been reading 'Hearing the Voice of the Lord' by Gerald Lund. Awesome book! Anyway - let me know how you're doing!

It's great to see you. Your Carter is the same age as my Elliot...almost to the day. You have such cute kids!
