My Buddy!

Now that school is back is session for Cooper, Carter has once again became my little buddy!  He loves having mommy all to himself and I don't mind one bit. We have lots of snuggle time/play time and I love having alone time with him to read and talk. I also love the  hour and a half of quiet time I get while he takes  a nap. :) Just one of the many perks of a stay at home mommy! LOL!!  Most days we don't  really  go anywhere, we just play outside  in  the sprinkler and kiddie pool, eat popsicles on the front porch and watch the cars go by, read books and color together or just snuggle and watch cartoons.  I remember when Cooper was this age and we use to do the same thing.   He was my little buddy then too! I still try to find one on one time with Cooper, but now that he is in school our time together seems limited. I am just thankful I had so much time to spend with Cooper before he started school and now have the same time with Carter. I truely love this age with my kids.  It is so fun to watch their personalities develop and to be able to help them learn and grow!  My babies are growing up too fast.  I am trying to cherish every moment with them!
He's three now and is so excited to show you his fingers to prove his age!

Carter told me for months prior to his birthday that he wanted to have a blue race car party, so mom couldn't disapoint!
His favorite gift from his birthday!  He loads it up with toys and books everytime  we go anywhere.  When he saw that  HIS name was on it he was super excited, since he usually gets Coopers hand me downs with Coopers name on it.
His outfit of choice lately! He loves "cool" underwear and  rain boots!
Everyday he asks  me to fill the little pool so we can play in the water!  He truely loves the water! He  dosen't care if it be bath water, pool water, beach water, rain water or just playing in the water hose. He loves it all!

What great pics. Carter is growing so fast. Gracie has the same frog boots, which she wears everyday.
