Yesterday morning we got tires for my car (finally - we've been needing to get new tires for a couple of months now) and had Carter's hair cut.
This was Carter's third time getting a haircut. We went to the same place but had another new person cut Carter's hair. This time a man cut his hair (I didn't catch his name). The barber did a great job interacting with Carter and gave him a good haircut. Carter sat in the chair with a booster all by himself. Right away the barber got Carter some toys to play with and got him to give him "five".
Carter did a good job this time. There was no freaking out like last time. Occasionally he pulled away a little from the barber, but he generally stayed still. Carter's hair looks so much better now!
After Carter's morning nap, we went to Fuddrucker's for lunch and then shopping for Brian for some new soccer stuff. I decided to sit out this season and finally give Brian a chance to play. My old team is splitting into two teams this fall so they could finally use some new guys (we're normally hurting for girls but have more than enough guys on the team).
I'm excited to bring the kids to the games and have them watch Brian play. It's probably going to be a challenge to keep Carter off the field but hopefully he'll understand after a little explaining. Most of the fields have paved trails around the fields so I'm planning on taking the boys running in the jogging stroller for part of each game so I don't have to chase after Carter the entire time.
After some playtime, another nap for Carter, some yard work done by Brian, and dinner, we all went to the pool last night. Rylan slept most of the time there so both Brian and I were able to get in with Carter. Unfortunately after about 45 minutes it started thundering and we had to leave. We had a lot of fun while we were there though. I'm sad that the pool will be closing in a couple of weeks.
After the pool, we made a quick run over to Babies 'R Us to pick up some diapers after I realized that their sale on Pampers was only through Saturday and then we put Carter to bed. After Carter was asleep, I was holding Rylan as we watched a little TV. Rylan had been asleep for about 15 minutes when he started laughing in his sleep. He's been smiling at us for a few weeks but this was the first time he's laughed. It was a big, long belly laugh. He even woke himself up! It was super, super cute!
Today was a little more laid back.
I took the boys running when we got up. I added a mile to my run so we're up to 3.3 miles now. We spent the rest of the morning playing inside and getting in a morning nap for Carter.
After lunch Brian cut the grass and I took Carter outside to play. Rylan chilled out in his bouncer in the shade of the garage with the fan on him, as usual. I wasn't planning on getting out any water toys, but it got hot so I ended up pulling out the water table. I put a swim diaper on Carter but no trunks. These are the cute/funny pictures I ended up with:
After Carter's afternoon nap we went out for a quick dinner and trip to Target. By the time we got home, it was time to give Carter a bath and get him to bed.
Hopefully next weekend will be even more fun. We're planning on going to "Touch-a-Truck" at the zoo next weekend. Hopefully Carter will enjoy seeing and climbing on all types of trucks!
