Carter's 2nd Birthday Party

We had Carter's 2nd Birthday party on Saturday May 12th.  Carter's favorite cartoon is Cat in the Hat he calls it "go go" because in the theme song they sing, "go go go on an adventure." He has loved this cartoon for a very long time so having a Cat in the Hat themed birthday party was a must!  Carter was very excited and I had a blast planning it!! I found lots of great ideas on-line and added some ideas of my own here and there.  We had an awesome turn out 22 kids and 23 adults.  The food turned out really good. It was a very hot day in the 90's but that didn't stop all the kids from having fun.  They jumped, ate a lot, played games, watched a juggling show, gifts, cupcakes and a piñata it was a blast!!

Carter had a wonderful birthday!!! All three of us woke him up with singing.
 Then Carter enjoyed his door decorations.
 Was very excited about his new dump truck and decorations down stairs.
 We made blue pancakes for breakfast.

 We then went to the zoo with our friends.
 Then we met up with daddy at the park for a McDonald's picnic.
After daddy got off work we went to Applebee's for dinner.  They even sang to Carter he was very cute and turned red.
Gift time. 
 The cutest spider man cake ever.
Playing with one of his new toys.
We had an awesome day.  We just had his party this last Saturday so I will post those pictures next.  Carter's 2 year appointment went great.  The doctor is so impressed with how great he is doing he weighs 27lbs 30% and 35.5 inches 78%.  We love you Carter!! Happy Birthday!!
