Sick Day

I took Carson back to the doctor today because I didn't think his ear infection was going away, and sure enough it didn't. We are going to meet with a specialist about getting tubes put in his ears. After his appointment I took him home and we spent the afternoon together. He was been pretty crabby all day, but he brought me my apron and wanted me to put it on him. He thought it was so funny!! Kenya and Lois came down and we put an apron on Kenya and the two of them played so great together. They have so much fun. :)

I scream, you scream...

Lois and I thought it would be fun to take Carson and Kenya to coldstone on Tuesday for their free ice cream night. The kiddos loved it! Gotta love free ice cream!

Glow sticks

Carson has another ear infection so he has been super crabby this week. We are thinking about getting tubes for the poor boy. :( He loves taking baths, so to cheer him up I thought we would try something new! I bought some glow sticks and put them in the tub with him while we turned out the lights. He loved it!!! He had to take them to bed with him that night.

Pumpkin Head

Poor little Carson fell off the couch on Monday and went head first into his Halloween pumpkin! He then flipped over onto his bum with the pumpkin on his head. He cut his nose and above his eye. Poor little Pumpkin Head! Mommy bought him a pumpkin head peez dispenser to make him feel better.

Shelley Spud Days and Harvest Fest

We went to the Shelley Spud Days this year since it was right down the street from our house. We started off by going to the parade in the morning. Carson got lots of candy and it was fun to see a small town parade again. 

He thought it was pretty cool to be out in the street with mommy.

Sitting on top of Daddy's shoulders watching the parade.

 Sitting down snuggling once it got too cold.

 After the parade we walked around the spud days events and got some fair food to eat. Then we went into Idaho Falls for the Harvest Fest. It would have been a lot more fun if the wind wasn't blowing so hard. They did have a hay bale maze for the kids that we took Carson through. He didn't think it was as cool as we did. :)

At the beginning of the maze

Daddy had to carry him half of the way

Look! I'm doing it!

We made it to the end of the maze!!!

State Fair

At the beginning of September Jason and I took Carson to the State Fair in Blackfoot! Carly and Will came with us and we had a lot of fun. Jason and I ate sooooo much food. I don't know what it is about fair food, but it seems to taste better than buying somewhere else for a lot cheaper. If you don't believe that we ate a lot, let me tell you what we ate........

we each had a bullseye burger (a bacon cheeseburger on a donut) with fries, we had tortados, corn on the cob, funnel cake, a carmel apple, and a chocolate covered strawberry kabob.  I probably could have eaten more, but we ran out of cash so I told myself we were done. :)

The fair has a free petting zoo for the little kids that has goats, chickens, and sheep running around. Carson though the animals were great! He could not get enough of them. After we were done with the petting zoo we walked through all of the animal barns. A very nice man let Carson pet his new baby calves! Carson wasn't sure what to think because they were so big and the mama cows kept "mooing" at him. It was really cute.

After we had spent the day with Carson, Carly and Will took him back to our house for us so that Jason and I could go on a date to the rodeo! We had a lot of fun. Jason wasn't so sure about the whole rodeo thing, but it was nice to get to be on a date by ourselves! I sure do love that husband of mine..... :)
