I'm about a week behind getting Carter's birthday blogged. I'm choosing to believe that it's because I was behind on getting the cruise blog done but it's probably just because the second child get's forgotten. Good thing Carter's so easy going. Having Carter's birthday in mid September is going to be tough. When he's going to school he's going to have to show up with birthday invitations on the first day of school and with the first couple weeks of school being so hectic we're going to have to plan over the Labour Day weekend.
We did manage to get a bit of a party together for him in time. We didn't start Callie's friend birthday's until she was four so we kept Carter's third birthday to just family. Uncle Corey and Auntie Carmen came over with Kristen and new cousin Ryan. Carter had decided that he wanted a Pirate theme so everyone had their best Pirate costumes on. (Mostly stuff we had from the Pirate night on the Cruise.) Even Ryan had a bit of a pirate costume on with the striped pyjamas.
Callie helped out a lot with Carter's gifts. She convinced him he wanted to get a scooter so that he could scooter around with her. He got a nice red three wheeled scooter and a Cars sleeping bag from us as well as numerous gifts from friends and family. It was good when the family gifts were delivered because Callie was very worried that Carter wouldn't get as many presents as she did. It was quite refreshing to have her getting along with her brother so well even if it is for just one day. I think she feels he deserves at least one day. :)
