Every holiday this past year has been extra special for us
because each has been the first with our baby boy.
It occurred to us today
that this is Carter's very last
first holiday.
We had a busy weekend
and Carter's regular schedule
was disrupted quite a bit,
but thankfully he did really great!
We had a bunch of mulch delivered
on Saturday morning and luckily Carter
was happy to play in the yard most of the day,
allowing BOTH Mommy and Daddy
to work in the flower beds.
Then on Sunday he spent lots of time in his stroller,
so we could keep on working.
When we went in for lunch,
Carter stood at the kitchen door
and watched Michael mow almost
the entire back lawn.
He would get all excited and
start dancing around on his toes
every time Mike came toward the door.
And he'd start crying every time
he went the other direction.
This boy sure loves his daddy.
Maybe it's because his daddy
pretty much gives him
whatever he wants.

| Hey, Dad! Can you open the fridge for me? |

| This door, too. And leave them open for as long as I want. |

| This is the Best. Morning. Ever!!! |
Today we ended the weekend with a picnic.
We took some pictures before we left,
to commemorate Carter's last first holiday.
Remembering all the brave men and women
who have given their lives in service to our country.
Happy Memorial Day!
He's such a cutie.
ReplyDeleteI love your beautiful front porch. Lia would die if she had to sit outside with all that mulch. She always covers her nose and yells "That mulch sure is stinky!" EVERY time she smells mulch- anywhere.
Carter is getting SO BIG- what are your big plans for his Bday celebration?
We had a great weekend for getting out and doing yard work. I haven't seen a Memorial Day like that in years! It was perfect :)
Have a great week
