Carson's Birthday Activities

We went to the Denver Zoo for Carson's birthday and had a great time! The weather couldn't have been better and it felt great to get outside. Carson loves getting out of the house, riding in the stroller and trying to run away from us whenever he can. A lot of the animals were hiding or camouflaged so he didn't even know they were there, but he liked the big ones like the elephants and big cats.



I made him a birthday shirt to wear which turned out pretty cute.










It got pretty hot in the afternoon so we changed him into some cotton pants so he could run around and be comfortable.


Everyone's been to the zoo so I won't post all the cute animal pictures.
BUT...this little guy was our favorite! Is his mustache adorable???


We were all pooped by the end of the day and came home to grill for dinner. We decided to get Carson a cupcake since he had his other cake over a week ago.
Let's just say he made short work of it this time!




It was shoved in his face and devoured in a few minutes, tops. Then he tried to lick his fingers clean.


He was a huge mess! You can see he figured out how to take the letters off his shirt so it was a goner by this point!


So, all in all we had a blast and we love sharing all these new experiences with our now toddler. He really isn't a baby anymore! :(
