Carson’s birthday-take two

 

 

My little baby turned 3 on October 8th! Man how the years fly by.

 

Love at first sight

 

1st birthday

 

2nd birthday

 

3rd birthday

 

Sadly Carson got sick on Ashlee’s birthday which is the day before his. He still was not feeling the best on his birthday, but we gave him his present in the morning before Sean left for school. Tommy was working close by so he was able to come home to watch Carson open his presents.  I had taken the day off for his birthday so we could go to lunch and a movie, but instead we relaxed and watched movies and played with his new toys all day.  Carson had a friend birthday party this year on the Friday the 12th. He was finally feeling better, so we were excited to PARTY. Just one problem though, Sean woke up sick that morning. DANG!! We had to cancel his party and reschedule for the next Thursday the 18th.  I was crossing my fingers all week that none of us would get sick. Thank goodness Thursday came and we were all feeling good.  PARTY TIME!!

Excited about his ninja turtles

 

He got lots of ninja turtles, a Spiderman toys, and leapster game

 

Uncle Matt, Aunt Chelsee and Cousin Scout gave him a squirrel game. It is such a fun game, we played it at least 5 times on his birthday

 

 

Turtle power!!

 

At his friend birthday party we had Halloween themed games. We played pin the tail on the donkey, bucket ball throw, hot pumpkin, spider ring toss, bingo, decorated cupcakes, opened presents and jumped on tramp. What a fun day!!

Carson had 9 of his little buddies over PARTY

Between Sean and Carson getting sick we weren’t able to have an official family party for Carson this year, instead we celebrated multiple days. Grandma and Grandpa Bowcutt gave Carson a ninja turtle, and clothes. Grandma and Grandpa Snider and Ashlee gave him Jake and the Neverland Pirate toys, ninja turtles and a ninja turtle movie.  Brad and Kami gave him an Angry Birds game.  He was definitely spoiled this year.  His birthday did not go as planed this year, but we still had lots of fun celebrating!  Happy birthday Carson, we sure love you buddy!!

Pumpkin’ patch

 

 

Tuesday the 9th the Larsen’s invited us to go to the pumpkin patch with them.  We dressed the kids up in their costumes, Melissa was able to snap a few pictures of the kidos then we let them pick out pumpkins.  After picking out the perfect pumpkins we went to Red Robin for dinner. It was delicious as usual.
