Happy Birthday to the Sauce!



Karter had a great first birthday! Grandpa and Grandma Arritt were up to visit for the whole week. We had a great time. We went to the Portland zoo and Rockaway Beach. For his birthday we went to Chevys (a great Mexican restaurant) where he was sung to and given both a sombrero and a bowl of ice cream. Later, we invited friends over for cake and ice-cream. We gave Karter his own little cake which we expected him to go crazy over, but he touched it very timidly and the only cake he got on his face was his mom's doing. We can't believe our little baby is 1 and turning into a little boy!

When will he walk???



Karter is loving to stand and walk around furniture. Pretty soon he'll be able to do it on his own!

Swingin' Karter!



Karter loves to swing!! Here he is on two different occasions- one was at Washington Park, and the other was in Great-grandma Greenwood's backyard during the Greenwood family reunion in June. He's just so cute!!

We had a great 4th of July!! We took Karter to his first firework show with some friends. He was tired and a little squirmy, but he loved them. There was a particular firework (a low, very sparkly one) that Karter would laugh at. He just thought they were hilarious and would laugh so loud. It was cute.
