Carter turns 11

Today is Carter's birthday. I think that as your oldest gets older, it's hard to watch them grow up. I can't believe he's already 11!! He's turning into such a fantastic person and it's amazing to see the person he's becoming.

He opted out of cake and instead ordered brownie sundaes. He really took advantage and loaded up his bowl knowing this is one of the few times his mother wouldn't give him a hard time about how much sugar he was eating.

Carter and his gifts. He got several Scout things (including a sleeping bag) in order to get ready for some big campouts next year.

The Cubs jersey and the glasses were from my parents. Baseball is a passion of his and it's fun to watch him play and get interested in all of the stats. He plays for the White Sox-something he's embarrassed to admit-he would much rather be a Cub! Last weekend he got to stay in a hotel with Chris and go to a Cubs game to celebrates birthday. Then, we celebrated as a family on Sunday which turned out to be fortuitous because he is home sick today with a fever, sick stomach and sore throat. Poor kid has felt miserable all day. Happy birthday buddy!
