Carter's 9th birthday was last week. Jared and I were out of town, so he was able to celebrate it with my parents and some of his aunts/uncles and cousins. I was feeling bad about not being there, but he was just thrilled to get to stay over at Grandma's house. He said he had the 'best time ever.' It was also Superbowl Sunday, so that made it even more exciting.
Then this last weekend, we had the Underwood side over for dinner and birthday cake. The boys had such a great time playing with their cousins. We have a new little cousin in our family...notice Krew in the background. :) He is such a cutie.
Carter is still asking when we are going to plan his 'friend' party now. I guess I better get going on that.
Rook is 6. It almost makes me sad, but then so glad because the older he gets, the more I enjoy him. He was such a sweet baby, with the worst skin rashes/eczema I had ever seen. After about 18 months, the sweetness was gone and he had a rough 3 years or so. There were a few good times here and there in between. (no joke) He was a pretty intense little guy. However, the older he gets the more I see how much I am going to enjoy him being my friend forever. There are lots of things I appreciate about Rook. I love his age. Kids say such funny things when they are in kindergarten. I love that he isn't so picky like his older brother. I love that he has such a great imagination. He can play all day long with a friend or by himself and I hardly hear from him. I love that he always tells me that he "loves me one-hundred"....I'm hoping that means a lot. :)
