ahhh, don't you just love Saturdays?? We had a relaxing morning around the house. Since it was rainy out, we decided to go to lunch and then to Kangaroo Bob's. This was Carter's first trip and I was afraid it might be his last. Once we got in the door and paid, Carter began to cry and say "I want to go home mommy, I want to go home daddy." He was not even considering getting on any of the inflatables at that point. After clinging on to me for dear life and crying as we walked around to look at all of the inflatables, I had the idea to take him on the big slide since he normally loves to slide. I definitely got a workout as I wrangled my son (who had the strength of ten men at this point) up the ladder. Once at the top, we talked about how fun it would be and whee...down we went. He didn't act as if that was so bad so we went to the front to tell daddy what we had just done. Crying again. Keith took over at this point and took him towards the back. After a little while, Coleman and I walked to the back. I finally got in the bouncy house and started playing with a ball that was in there. This was finally enough to entice Carter inside. He loved it and stayed in there for the rest of our visit. As we were leaving, he became a little timid again and we figured it out...he was not at all fond of the enormous alligator with his jaws open wide situated at the front of the play area. Live and learn I guess!
This picture was taken later this afternoon after my boys both had naps. They were playing on the couch and being silly. Carter sure does love his little brother!
