Carter FINALLY started school this Tuesday. He was extremely excited to get back and play with his best friend Kaden. When they saw each other at meet the teacher last week, they couldn’t decide whether to hug or what! It ended up being a chest bump half-tackle as they compared super-hero t-shirts. Little boys are so funny!

One of Carter’s friends from church is also going to be in his class this year. Carter is excited to have Jack be a church friend AND a school friend now.

I’m excited to see Carter progress this year. Raine never attended pre-K, she went straight from the three-year-old class to kindergarten, so this is new territory for us. But it will be good for Carter, hopefully he will improve his writing skills!

{Carter calls that smile his ‘happy hulk smile.’ He does it every time I take a photo of him and it always cracks me up. It all started when he began using his money to buy super-hero action figures. I won’t let him have anything with a mean or angry-looking super hero but finding one with a happy or even just neutral-face is not as easy as one may think — especially when it comes to the Hulk. We finally found one with a smile on its face and Carter calls it his happy hulk. For some reason, he has decided to start imitating its smile now. Whatever, at least he’s smiling instead of hiding from the camera!}
