MMMMM

It's my birthday week! One thing after another keeps happening, and it hasn't brought my mood down yet! Our car tire shakes crazily when we go past 65 (found that out when I was on my way to my friends wedding), my computer crashed, we need new brakes, dentist bills (the worst) and Carter is growing out of all his clothes! Thank goodness we have such a great family, I'm not sure we'd survive with out them! I'm going to take my computer to the KU IT people, supposedly they can do wonders. And it's free!

Carter catches on so fast! He says "MMMM" when you ask him what a cow says. We have been practicing on where his nose is, and that is hit or miss. He tries hard though :) He got his first time out the other night - of course attempting to get on the coffee table. I felt like that one minute in his crib for time out lasted 5. He has to learn sometime, right? It seems like he is getting so tall, and wearing 2T already. Isn't time supposed to slow down when we want it to? I thought maybe I was getting baby fever, but it definitely fizzles when Carter wakes up 4 times during the night for whatever reason. Maybe when he's older, after we're married and have a house. I'm not in any hurry to get married. I want to be engaged for a few years so I can plan with out panic. It does make me giddy to see my friends get married though :) Some day...!

I can't wait for Halloween and my birthday! Carter is going to be batman! We plan on visiting all of our family, so be ready to give us a trick or a treat!! :) Carter has picture day at school tomorrow, and a halloween party. I am making cupcakes to bring, and we are both going to his halloween party!


My birthday is Friday and we are all going out to dinner with my mom - I can't wait! I am thinking Paisanos or Olive Garden! Carter is going to enjoy it so much more than before. On Saturday, we are all going bowling and drinking! It's kind of a tradition, and the only time I can get RJ to go. He's going to be such a good sport, almost the only guy coming. I did see on Thursdays they have ladies night, girls bowl free. I am thinking I might go bowling more often!

So even though crap just keeps on coming, I am so thankful that I have such a great life, and the best family and friends to spend it with!
