The birthday boy loves cupcakes, but usually just licks off the frosting and leaves the cake part behind.
Mimi and Pa gave Carson new Wall-E sheets for his big boy bed that he will be sleeping in soon. He and Tate will be sharing a room together in a few months, and are both excited about their new bunk-bed.
Carson also got a Toy Story backpack, Thomas the Train Golden book, and a Richard Scarry Busytown DVD.
I took Carson to Toy R Us the week before his birthday and let him pick out something for his special day. He picked out "Mac" from Disney's Cars movie.
The birthday dinner was pizza (always a kid favorite), watermelon, and salad. Carson currently would rather eat salad, really just the lettuce, more then anything else. He LOVES lettuce. Go figure, just my luck, the one vegetable that he will actually eat is only one that has no nutritional value.
Mimi and Pa joined us for the birthday dinner on our back patio.
Earlier in the day, Tate helped me make the cupcakes. He likes to be a helper in the kitchen when I'm cooking these days. He just drags his little step stool over to the counter and his job is to pour in the ingredients. While assisting today though, I think he ate more candies then he put on the cupcakes.
For Carson's birthday day event, we took the boys to Fairfield to the Jelly Belly factory. While taking the tour, these hats are required to be worn at all times.
You are brave!! I have never stood in line to go in there!!
