We celebrated Carson's birthday on Sunday with my family. He got to open his presents and have cake and ice cream. He loved all the presents he got and wore the backpack his grandparents gave him all over. He even had it on while he ate his dinner, complete with his toys inside it. :) He was so excited to use it for school the next day.
Sadly he was up all night throwing up and was still sick in the morning and could not go to Preschool. He cried and cried and cried all morning, he was so sad to not be able to go. He gave me all kinds of "reasons" why he should be able to go: "Mom, I won't throw up, I promise!", "Mom, I'm just so excited to go to Preschool.", "Mom, I'm all better now!" It was the saddest thing ever but what can you do. On the morning of his birthday, this is how it started out:
He was still not feeling too great. But by mid-morning, he jumped off the chair and said he was feeling all better and played with his toys. I was so glad that he seemed much better. That afternoon I took him to go buy a toy with the money Nana & Gramps had given him for ToysRus. He was so funny to watch, he looked at all the toys and pushed the buttons and wanted to see what they all did. He tried to convince me to buy him this:
Or this:
He informed me, "it's not too expensive Mom, I just want it, it would be so fun for me." Yes, I'm sure it would be and I would be totally broke! So after we spent LOTS of time looking at toys that were more along the lines of how much money he had, this is what he chose:
He absolutely loves it can you tell? After that we took him to Jungle Jim's with our little family to celebrate his birthday. He had so much fun! Actually I don't know who was more excited, him or Shalise! She went on all the rides with him and they had the biggest smiles on their faces the whole time. Marcus kept saying "No rides Mom, okay!" so he pretty much just walked around and looked at things. He did eventually play with some slides a little bit. But it was a great place to go, the kids all had a lot of fun!

Happy Birthday to Carson! I'm sure he LOVED his birthday. You are such a great mommy Lilet!
Wow, I can't believe it's been 4 years since I picked him up from the hospital. He was the best baby ever. It's so much fun to be able to see him grow up. Happy Birthday Carson!
Happy Birthday Carson--what a handsome little guy! Looks like you made some great memories!
Hard to believe he's getting so big!! I'm glad his birthday improved from the morning.
Happy birthday to Carson. I see that he got Rocket from Little Einsteins. That's awesome. Jacob asks for that every time we pass it at the store. I'm so sorry he was barfing on the first day of school. Barfing is never fun, but it is so much worse when it ruins good plans.
