What a birthday season!! It really all started with Carter getting a ticket to go and visit Utah and the birthday festivities didn't stop! On Carter's actual birthday I thought it would be fun to spend it with just Carter. He chose everything we did and was a super guy to spend the day with. We went to the zoo, then to dinner, and finished off the day picking up doughnuts to take home and celebrate with everyone.
This is the coolest snake. Carter loved it because it was green!
Carter's favorite animal, the giraffe. He was thrilled to see these guys and was trying to get them to come over to him so that he could pet them. They just decided to stare at him instead.
It's a family affair in this habitat land. Carter just giggled and giggled about these guys relaxing on top of one another.
Carter is a super kid and does so much for our family. He is sensitive, spirited, independent, fragile at times, aggressive, and just and all around awesome kid. It was my pleasure to be with him and get to know him even more. He helps me out so much, and especially with Mike being gone. He helps support our family to be the best we can! Love him!!
Carter learned a lot about elephants at the zoo. We were there when they were cleaning the habitat and Carter talked for awhile with the zoo keepers about why they did certain things. We saw the baby roll around in its mom's poo and Carter thought that was so disgusting! Then he learned they actually eat the poo sometimes to prepare their tummy's to eat hay. You can only imagine the gross factor for this fabulous 7 year old. He enjoyed every second of the day, and so did I!
