Belated Christmas with Carter...

So for the majority of the Christmas Break Sherry, Matt, and Carter were in Texas visiting Matt's family. Once they got back we chose Thursday Dec. 30th for our mini-Christmas get together. Carter had a good time opening gifts and although he wasn't really in the mood to be photogenic he spent time playing with each present! he looked through each book he got and danced to his new Yo Gabba Gabba DVD that grandma gave him.

Carter spent time looking through each and every book he received. I got him some puzzle books that had colors and numbers and Grandma gave him some Yo Gabba Gabba books.

Carter LOVES shoes and his new favorite TV show if you haven't noticed yet is of-course Yo Gabba Gabba...which is these crazy costumed characters that dance and sing and teach good morals and habits. Shows about eating, and sharing all have fun songs that make it easy for kids to memorize. Grandma got him some Vans shoes that had each of the Yo Gabba Gabba bunch pictured on them and

the minute he opened the box he ripped off his other shoes to put on his new ones. Matt then put on the DVD (which you can see in the background)

and carter started

dancing and clapping to the

music--so cute!

Uncle Wayne got Carter an electric guitar that played a bunch of different pre-recorded sounds when each button was pushed. This particular gift was one of the last of the evening and we were creeping up on his bedtime so he played for a few minutes and then Sherry took over! Who knew she could make THAT face--almost scary, but all in good fun! :)

Matt and Sherry had made homemade Oreos to celebrate Mom's birthday and Carter helped blow out the candles. By the way...these cookies were SOOO good it was hard to only eat one!
