We had the best vacation this year with the whole family – Nonna, Pal, Bailey, Gracie, and George! We didn’t see any oil until our last day so we were able to enjoy the beach – although, we spent most of our time at the pool. Luke, Carter, and I stayed Friday night in Mobile at the Battle House Hotel. It was fabulous.

Water babies – Water adults
I thought I would post pictures of Carter’s latest trick – climbing the step ladder… I see ER visits in our future.
I turned my back for 10 seconds (max), and this is how I found her. I do believe her father was known in one Memphis ER for his climbing accidents as a child. Hmmm…
I have some pictures from May that I want to post, but I had to go ahead and post these from yesterday. I thought they were pretty funny. Carter (somehow) got herself stuck in a box that I keep some of her toys in – she is so tiny. Of course, I had to take some pictures before I helped her out… mean Mommy! She was not happy! At least she could get her fingers in her mouth…
We had Carter’s birthday party on April 24th. We had lots of family and a few friends over for refreshments and birthday cake. I had lots of help getting ready for her big day – couldn’t have done it with out all of the help!! The weather had been horrible all day. A couple of hours before the party, the sun came out, and the afternoon was beautiful! Carter is so blessed to have so many people come to wish her a happy birthday.
Yummy cakes and food
Stripped down and ready for her first cake
She wasn’t sure about the singing and multiple cameras shoved in her face
She ate quite a bit of her cake – then was ready for a nap
After a cool bath to wake her up, she was ready for gifts! George was ready to help.
Carter had the best time at her party. She got SOO many sweet gifts! Wonder what we will do for her 2nd party??? McDonalds maybe…
Here are some pictures from the day.
Nonna came for a visit with the birthday girl.
Yay! I am one!!
The first birthday came and went just like any other day I suppose. It’s hard to believe that this year and all its’ firsts is over. I write this over a month later so I am over the initial shock. As I said in an earlier post, it has been a wonderful year. Almost makes you think that you could easily have another one any time – almost… not quite though.
