My Middle Child


Carter's turn for a little acknowledgement. He is a middle child after all and they do tend to get lost in the mix, but he is not any less important than my other two. I even had a problem finding a nice picture of him b/c he is either with his brothers, eating something or giving me a goofy grin, so the photo is from about 6 months ago.
Carter has two side, the sweet affectionate side where he will always give me a hug and kiss, (unlike my oldest child) and compliments me by telling me I am beautiful and pretty( he sure is going to know how to work the ladies when he is older :) He is my big sweet little man. He has a sweet smile and genuinely cares. Then there is the other side where he throws a fit, cries and runs away b/c he didn't get his way and threatens that he will not love me if I don't comply with his demands, but this quickly passes and is soon back to his loving self.

Carter is almost 5 and currently in preschool and doing awesome for how little time I spent with him learning his stuff( again second child thing, I need to work harder on that) He can count to 14 then jumps to 18 up to 23. He recognizes most his alphabet and some of the sounds they make. He has mastered writing his name as well, must have been all those Valentines he filled out. :) He is a very social guy, he loves to make friends, even though he is a little timid at first with a little encouragement he goes right up to them. He likes to hang with his big brother and protect his little brother.
He is my imaginitive child. He likes castles, pirate ships and all the little guys that go with them and making up these little stories or scenes. He likes to do puzzles and be crafty( like play-doh, paint, and coloring) He also likes to help bake. He is the closest I am going to get to my girl, haha he may not like to here me say that in about 10 years, oh well. But he also enjoys being outside building forts, riding bike and running around with the neighbor boys. We love him for who he is just the way he is( mood swings and all!) We love you buddy!
