Big changes for a little guy...

Being the last kid, Carter gets to do things the others didn't. This can either be a good thing or bad, depending on the situation, but one of the best was he didn't get a haircut until he was three. He has curls that are to die for and so fit his larger than life personality.
We reached the point where too many people called him a girl, though, so it was time!

Carter's first haircut.
He also had his tonsils out this summer. He has never been a good sleeper. I can count on two hands how many times he actually made it through the night without waking up (and in turn, waking us up.) Remember, he's 3! That wasn't the only reason he got his tonsils out but I am here to tell you once he recovered from his surgery he has slept through the night EVERY NIGHT! (Do you hear the angels singing?!) The Dr. came out after surgery and said he had never seen tonsils that large on a 3 year old EVER. Carter had only been 3 for a few days so they were huge!

The biggest change for him is he needed glasses. He had a lazy eye so we took him in and found out his vision is terrible. *Sigh* A lifetime of glasses and contacts. Kids picking on him at school. Having to wear glasses all the time. I know it's no big deal most of the time, it's just the whole mom guilt that goes with it. He looks stinking cute in them, though!

He does look very cute in his glasses. I hope he's still got a few curls.
