Carter's Birthday - Part 2!

Aside from Carter's AWESOME Spider-Man / Pump It Up Party, Carter also started his first soccer season that very same day!  He looks SO adorable in his uniform...and he LOVES to run around on the field.  Has he gotten the hang of going after the ball yet?  Not quite...but it's super cute ;) 

On Carter's actual birthday, Willow Bend Learning Center did a "Celebration of Life" for him.  This is a Montessori tradition in lieu of having birthday parties.  There are a few pics below...it's really sweet.  They share pictures of themselves from birth to present.  And I got to write down all of the fun adventures he had each year, milestones he met, etc.  He was really excited about doing it :)

Soccer stud!

This makes it look like he actually knew what he was doing - ha!

New scooter he got from his friend Luke!  We were practicing in the garage.

Carter and Emmerson the morning of his actual birthday before school.  SO sweet...

Showing his newborn picture at his Celebration of Life...

Blowing out his 4 candles to symbolize living 4 years on Earth (See the blue / green ball?  That's the Earth he carried around to represent the Earth rotating around the sun each year)

He got to pick one "special friend" to be his helper during his Celebration.  He picked Julia :)

Being super silly for the camera!

I just can't believe my sweet, sweet boy is 4...
