Where oh Where Has My Baby Boy Gone?

My baby is 6-years-old! I can't believe it. He is such a joy to us, and it is unreal to me that he has surpassed a hand full of fingers in age. He's playing video games, riding a bike without training wheels, doing math, climbing across monkey bars with no help, doing flips on a trampoline....But not long ago he was the cute little baby below wondering why in the world people were singing to him and what that flickering thing on his cake was.

Now Carter knows all about birthday cake and can eat it like a pro. He inherited his father's sweet tooth and can stuff a lot of it in that slim little body of his. He can be a messy eater but generally keeps his feet out of his food now, unlike on his first birthday. Who taught that kid table manners anyway?

Carter scored big for his birthday with a spiderman video game, a scooter, a remote control tarantula, a bug vacuum, puzzles, a whoopi cushion....

I think he got his fashion (shirt and shorts from last pict) from his dad too! I tell Jason that I don't think we are old enough to have kids and he reminds me that we are 30....
