Thank You Ross and Lucas!!!

Carter LOVES his pet lizard that a co-worker of mine gave to him. Her twin boys catch them at the lake and keep as pets, and Carter was fascinated by them. They were nice enough to give him one of their latest catches.

Happy Birthday Erek!

Erek turned 3 on Sunday! We celebrated on Saturday at the Memphis Zoo and had a blast. Mommy made a Giraffe cake and a Panda cake:




After everyone arrived we started with lunch - Backpack meals from Backyard Burgers. The kids (and Moms and Dads) got to choose either a hamburger or hot dog. Erek is the hot dog King:



After everyone finished eating, we had a visit from some friends at the zoo. "Billie" and "Bob" brought a variety of wild animals to show the kids. They had the opportunity to get up close and touch:

a chinchilla...


a sand boa...


a carnivorious toad (no touching allowed!)...


a Mexican armadillo...


and a King snake. The kids learned that if a snake is named King or Cobra, it means it grows big enough to eat other snakes!



Happy Birthday Erek!

Toothless in Somerville

Today on the way home from our day at Pickwick Landing, Carter's loose tooth finally came out somewhere near Somerville, TN. At first he was ecstatic, followed by a short panic when it bled a little, then relieved that it was finally over:




Check out Erek's expression over the gap in his big brother's smile:
