Carter is 2!!

Here is our new 2 year old! We had a party on his birthday February 24th and he had a blast! Curious George was the theme (he LOVES the movie) and we invited about 25 friends and family to come and help us celebrate.

Here are Carter's friends that came to the party:

From left to right- Alexa, Brady (Carter's cousin), Carter, and Dylan
The kids had fun playing with toys and going down the slide.

The adults had fun playing guitar hero:
Here are some more shots from the party in our basement!
Never underestimate the excitement of playing in a box!


Nick bought these silly glasses for the kids to wear because he thought it would be funny to see them wearing the glasses...he was right!

The cake was a big hit! Brady only wanted to eat the icing not the bread:) It seems he wasn't the only one who liked the icing!




Overall it was a great party, everyone had fun, and Carter got TONS of gifts!














We are so excited to have a 2 year old and everything that comes with this new age! Carter is still going to the potty (even at places like Chuck E Cheese and restaurants!!!) and Nick and I bought him a toddler bed for his birthday, so we will see how that goes!

Our First Blog

The Crivella Family at Christmas



Hey everyone I have decided to join the blog wagon to keep everyone up-to-date on our fun family adventures! I hope you enjoy reading it! A few of my friends have started blogs and I have enjoyed reading the entries and keeping up with what is new in their lives. So lets begin...

I guess I'll start by introducing everyone. There is me, Susan, the mom, Nick, the dad, and Carter, the baby. He is not really a baby anymore he will be 2 on February 24th! How time flies!
Carter as a Baby:



Carter as a Big Boy!

Carter is full of life! He loves to run, jump, slide, and swing. He is not the quietest 2 year old but he makes our lives fun and always keeps us on our toes!

Now that you know who we are here is what is happening in our lives right now!
Carter (the almost 2 year old) has started to potty train.

He is going very consistently at our house and has branched out to Ms. Jeanne's house (daycare) one time. Yesterday he wore a Pull-Up for 3 hours and kept it dry the entire time! We are very excited about our little boy becoming a Big Boy! Next step... a big boy bed!
