Happy 4th Birthday, Carter!

Carter had a fun, busy day! First, he helped me bake his cake. He is so silly, he totally posed for this. But he put in all the ingredients himself, then mixed it. his favorite DS character is Kirby, so he wanted a kirby cake.



It went from this...:


To this!


Then we went to the mall to Build-A-Teddy. He picked out the stuffed Calico cat, because we have a calico cat at home named Callie.


Then he wished on his star....


Next he got to brush and fluff his new kitty.


He had a hard time choosing between the super man outfit and the basketball outfit. The bball won in the end. Carter named her Basketball-Cat-Girl. He would not budge on the name, and if you tried to leave off the "girl" he was sure to correct you.


Then I did something I never do. I actually GAVE them MONEY to play on the toys at the mall!!! The kids got to see how they really work, instead of 'using your imagination' like Mom usually tells them to do. Ü


(Hey at least Richie looks like he's having fun!)


Next, it was off to Carter's dinner of choice. Chuck E. Cheese's. No big surprise there!

Granny Jean sent him moneymoneymoney!

Carter invited one of his best buddies, Trace to come along. They had a great time.
