Mothers Day and Sunshine.

Mothers Day was awesome. I got some beautiful flowers:
some nice coupons that will force Mark to spoil me, some candy, a gift card to Arby's, and a rolling pin! It was great. I also got 2 nice surprises from Carter while at church:
He pooped...more like exploded. TWICE. He went through two pairs of navy blue courds, 2 onesies, 2 pairs of socks, and one pair of shoes. I was in Relief Society and looked down to find a puddle of poop on the floor. I looked at Carter and he had poop on his shoe and the bottom of his pants. I Picked him up and rushed to the bathroom. Stripped him down and wiped him off. While I was doing this, Mark ran home and got him new pants, a onesie and some more socks. We got him all cleaned up and then I proceeded to clean up the poop puddle. I felt bad for all the freshly pregnant women in my ward who had to smell the stench while I clea
ned. It was probably horrendous for them. Luckily, I found some mango scented spray to help ease the nastiness. After Relief Society, we went to Sunday school. Carter and Juliet played and laughed and distracted almost everyone in the room. It was great. Then we went to Sacrament meeting. Carter did great...until we noticed him grunting.A few seconds later, the smell reached our noses. It was ten minutes before church got out so Mark decided that he would just take him out and we'd change him when we got home. About a minute later, I noticed Mark standing in the back waiting for me to look back. He was showing me that Carter had exploded again. Great. I ran to get wipes from Amy (because of course, it's the one Sunday we forgot ours). We went out and cleaned him up. This time he wasn't as lucky to get more socks, pants and a onesie. By the time I was done cleaning him up, we were just in time for the closing prayer.
Thursday it rained and we had fun riding the scooter, looking at worms and stealing tulips from our old yellow house's yard which they would soon demolish.
Friday I decided that I wouldn't go to class or my internship so I could spend the entire day with Carter. It was the best decision ever! Frida was beautiful and we spent almost the whole day outside. We went to the park and had a picnic for lunch, we were even lucky enough to enjoy it with daddy. Then we played on the playground for a little while before heading home for nap time.After nap time we invited Juliet to play with us outside in the sprinkler! The kids had so much fun!
Carter even got a little sun-kissed :)
