Carter got to choose what he wanted for lunch, his favorite Sprite and chicken nuggets.
His birthday theme this year was Fire Fighters. Here he is posing as we are getting ready for his party.
This is an outfit given to Carter by grandma Whitelock. When carter put it on he just kept saying how much he looked like a stud and how happy he was that his grandma bought it for him (pants slightly too long but he did not care).
Oh my sweet little Lee Bee where on earth has time gone that you are now 5. You have grown to be such a comedian, people are always amazed at your ability to speak like you are 15 rather than 5. You are so loving and kind, you always have hugs and kisses for me and your dad. You are the best big brother that Tysen and Nadya could have asked for. You are always helping me with the twins and things around the house. I love that you love to learn and that you catch on easily to new things being taught to you.
You are now weighing in at 38.14 pounds and are 40.55 inches tall. You were so brave at the doctors when you had to get your shots. You tried really hard not to cry so that when it was Tysen and Nadya's turn they wouldn't cry either. You kept telling them that it was ok and that you could go get suckers and stickers afterwards. Your brother and sister look up to you so much.
Carter right now you are learning to read in school and you are picking it up quickly. You love that everyday at school you get to do some sort of farm chore. Your favorite food is ravioli and candy. You love to drink chocolate milk (not white that seems to take you longer to drink). You love to try to distract us so that you can stay up longer by telling us that you have a question, then you have to think about what your question is. You are very good at stalling us and visitors when they come so that they don't leave too soon. You love to do homework (make me proud). You love to be outside shoveling snow and making snow cones to eat.
You are a very incredible boy and we are so blessed that you were sent to us. Always remember how much we love you and that your Heavenly Father loves you as well and that you are never alone even when it may seem as though you are. We can't wait to see what this year brings you. We love you so much son.
