Mommy, Carter and Sister (39 Weeks!!!)

Carter will be 3 years old in 2 weeks (September 7th) and sister is due 1 week (August 29th). The doctor thinks she'll be early!!! Carter's top pick for a name is still "Cereal," but he announced the other day that he likes "Christmas Tree," too! I feel great - we're ready to go!

Riding the rides...

Carter's Green Thumb

"Gah-ma" Darla was nice enough to send Carter this planting set. Included were eucalyptus and aloe seeds. Carter did a great job planting and watering the soil, carefully placing the decorative pebbles, and finding a nice sunny place on the windowsill.
I read the package to him and said that it will take 2-4 weeks until we get to see the plants. They still need time to grow. He said, "Oh, just like sister?" Yes. In fact, just at the same time sister is ready to come out and play, the plants will be ready, too.
Thank you, Gah-ma Darla :-)

Launching rocket ships

Carter's first field trip to the Discovery Science Center

Snack time...Carter ate all of his (big surprise!)...I was also responsible for chaperoning Joshua, Carter's new best buddy :-)
One of our favorite activities - baseball!
Waiting for the bus on the playground. This is Colin, Carter's best friend. They call each other "dee dee" (which I think, means little brother in Chinese).
