Carter is 3 Years + 5 Months!

 You are growing up so fast Carty Man! You are such a good big brother and not only look out for Coops and Cros but you also love to tell on them too! At times I'm grateful, like when you let dad know that Cooper was running around with a knife or on top of the dining room table, AGAIN. You still love doing crafts-mostly coloring, stickers and play-doh. Lately though, legos have been your favorite toy.
A couple random things from this past month:
-Any time he sees any sports team playing on the TV he yells, "Go Hawks"!!
-He heard the song, "Life is a Highway" from the movie Cars and loves it. He'll sing it all the time and when we get on the highway he belts it out.
-When he talks to Cooper he usually drops his voice a bit...almost like he is trying to sound authoritative.
-When I ask him what he means about something, he'll reply the exact thing he said but really slow and loud. For instance:
Carter: "Where is the bowl?"
Me: "What do you mean?"
Carter: "WHERE   IS   THE   BOWWWWWWL?"
Me: "Oh, now I get it" (Just kidding...I try not to be sarcastic with the kids...yet)
-Mimi took him to a story time at the Stillwater library and he sat front and center again. He even corrected the librarian who apparently read a book incorrectly. You can't misread any books to him that he has heard before. He has such a great memory!

Carter quotables:
-When we ask him a question he isn't sure about he furrows his brow, puts his arms out and palms up and says, "Well, I don't know. It's a mystery!"
-After waking up from a nap he usually lets us know how it was. Yesterday he said, "Mom and Dad, I had a real good, old, long, great nap."
-While playing with legos, Cooper destroyed one of his creations. He just looked at me and said, "Mom, the walls are falling down just like Jericho!!"
