Surprise for Daddy

He can't say he wasn't warned to put his shoes away.

Say what?

Did you hear him?! Clear as day: "Hi-Ho Silver Away!"

Baby is getting around

Just look where I found him today. He really likes to try out all of
Carter's toys. It's really sweet how much Carter takes him around with
him. He's not so much playing with the baby doll as he is playing and
baby doll is with him. Just like his little brother or sister will be
;)

So tired!

We're closing in on 2 weeks since Carter took his last morning nap! I've already gotten so used to having more time to be out and about in the morning that I can hardly remember what it was like having to put him down for a nap so early.

I've started working out at Barre3 (which is kicking my butt in a good way) and Carter has really enjoyed going along since he's usually the only kid and gets all the toys and the babysitter to himself. We usually work out, come home for lunch and then it's nap time. Yesterday was a different story.

He feel asleep on the 5 minute ride home. Usually, when the car stops, he wakes up and we would go about our plans. Yesterday.... I got him out of the car, changed his diaper on the living room floor, carried him over the baby gate, upstairs and laid him in his bed. He slept for an hour and a half.

Stroller/baby update

Home study meeting #1

Our social worker thought it would work out best if Carter wasn't home while we did our home study as it was mostly talking and he would be a distraction. So, Auntie Lindsey showed up bright and early to take Carter out for some fun.

When they arrived home with Grandma Cupcake in tow, it looked like they had just spent the day at an amusement park! They had been to Cafe Sip 'n' Play for some play time/coffee and then apparently to Toys R' Us and then out to lunch.

They came in with boxes and toys. One was a potty training Elmo complete with sippy cup and potty. The other was a practice baby and stroller to help him prepare for his baby brother or sister. I'm pretty sure he likes the stroller more than the actual baby.

Edited to add the below photos - it really was like an amusement park
