Okay, so I fibbed a bit.  I said I wasn’t going to post any more pictures of the birthday boy.  But Carter took a fabulous nap this afternoon, so I was able to get some things checked off my to do list. . . including editing his birthday pictures.  So, for those of you who saw the couple of sneak peak pictures this afternoon, here’s the rest of the lot.  

I decided I wasn’t going to do anything fancy for Carter’s birthday.  That I was going to lay low and just roll with the punches.  But then a couple days before his birthday, I thought of all of these things at the last minute that I wanted to do.  So I spent some time on Friday and Saturday designing some things on photoshop and baking.  I had a lot of fun 🙂  It’s good to be domestic a few times a year.  Especially when your little guy is turning one.  

So we had a colorful birthday for him.  Lots of circles and bold colors.  We had a brunch with a few people in the morning. . . kept it simple.  And then we were having our church group gang over Sunday night for our normal rotation . . . to do our normal study.  But we sang Happy Birthday and ate cake before we started.  There are loads of kids in our small group. . . fifteen of them!  They all loved the cake pops and rainbow cake.  So nice to have cherished friends to celebrate our little one’s lives with!

I am so in love with my little Carter!  

. . . who, by the way, is sick and wasn’t a happy camper for awhile yesterday.  Took him to the doctor’s today and he has an ear infection.  Not a fun way to start your newest year of life!
