Carter turned the big 3 on August 20th! The whole year I knew he would love a heavy equipment construction themed party. He is obsessed with dump trucks, backhoes, track hoes, etc. Grandpa Larry has both a dump truck and a back hoe. Carter gets so happy when he gets to ride in one of those. This year Carter was especially deserving of a fun b-day bash because he earned it! We had been struggling with potty training...to say the least. Then some helpful advice from a friend about using food coloring in the toilet at potty time helped get him interested in the whole process. And then to really hook him in I told him that he couldn't have a "big boy birthday party" until he knew how to go potty! So with about a month ahead until his b-day he got on the potty training bandwagon. He must have finally been ready because he really understood it all. He was pretty much trained within 2 weeks! My easiest yet! I am so proud of him! Therefore he was totally deserving of this party. And Carter's birthday is only 2 days before Nana Connie's. She was having a big one this year! I along with a ton of help from my sister-in-law Nicole, made this Hello Kitty cake. I wanted to do something cute and fun and she has always liked Hello Kitty....and she is really a little girl at heart! They both enjoyed sharing a special party day together!
