Summer is here!!!

Hooray summer has finally begun for me!  Work actually ended a couple of weeks ago but I had a school training to go to in Spokane, so I feel like it really didn't start until this week.  Jasen and I have so many fun things planned for the next few weeks to do as a family, and I am so looking forward to time together. 

Karter is growing so fast, talking in sentences, throwing tantrums, and is definitely stressing his independence   All the wonderful things an almost 2 year old does.  Here are a few pictures of him playing at the mall one day, as you can tell he is Mr. Independent with a capital "I", and totally is too big for his britches. LOL


I can climb up here by myself mom!

and even balance while bawking like a chicken!!

Hmmmm....now what should I do??


I will not go with you mom....I am staying right here in this plane!
For the 4th of July we went over to our friends Kyle and Tonya's house.  Jasen was able to go for a bit before work this year which was nice.  We had a wonderful time, and Karter had a blast with his girlfriend Livya.  

The Raphaels July 2013

Having so much fun with Livya in the bounce house

Stopped playing in the water table to mow Kyle's lawn for him....That is all he wanted to do for the remainder of our time there as well!!  

He did manage however to stop and give Mama some cuddle time and hugs!

Karter's 1st firework!!  The sparkler of course!

Where oh where did my baby go????
The other day we spent the day at the Zoo.  It was perfect weather, not crowded, and most of the animals were out so that we could see them!  Here are a few fun pictures from our day!
I want to be a crab Mommy!!!

No Mommy Karter says...."you be crab"  so what did Mommy do?? She became a crab! 

Like father like son....both in awe of the shark tank!

WHOA...Karter yells as the Walrus swam by!

Time to chill out for a snack break....water and goldfish of course! 

Budgee Birds time! He loved the Budgees!!

He kept wanting to hold them!

Mommy and Daddy give Karter a helping hand as he touches the stingrays

He was very brave and not scared at all!

Here we go mom!!

Having a blast of the Carousel! Riding the horse....which he picked out!
Where oh where did two years go?? This is me SUPER PREGGO with Karter ...only a few weeks before he was born.....holding my niece Kylie. 

And here we are two years later.....getting ready to celebrate Karter's 2nd birthday!!
