Today we took Carson to Kings Island for the first time. He loved it! Carson went on lots of fun rides...a helicopter, Blue's Skidoo, Go Diego Go (Diego's jeep), a train ride, and his first roller coaster ride! Also, he made a friend while driving a car. He gave all of the characters that he met a big hug. We met up with Grammie Pat, Great Aunt Pam, Aunt Beth and Joe, cousin Jessie, Tim, and Great Uncle Rick while we there there too.
On Thursday morning, Carson went to work with me for "Take your child to work day." He had so much fun...He ate pancakes, sat in a chair in my office coloring in his book and playing with his toy trains, roamed the halls, and met lots of new people. I wish I could bring him everyday...but I wouldn't be too productive then!
Here is Carson on the carousel at the zoo.
Carson will go on the potty, but not consistently yet. A few days ago, he told us that he wanted to wear "underwears" and no more diapers. Since he is not ready for real underwear yet, we bought him some pull-ups. He he is showing off the pull-ups. He was so excited to wear them. Hopefully this means that the diaper days are numbered...
We went to Evan's 1st birthday party today! The party was in Katie and Adam's newly finished basement. Evan got some fun toys. Happy birthday Evan!
It was such nice weather here this weekend, so we decided to go to the zoo today. We saw elephants, lions, tigers, goats, and monkeys. Also, we went on a train ride. Carson had so much fun (and so did Mommy and Daddy)! We will be going back many times this spring and summer...
Since the weather was so nice this weekend, Carson played outside with his t-ball set. We helped him the first few tries and then he was hitting the baseball all over the yard!
We took Carson to his first Blue Jackets game tonight. Everytime hockey is on tv, he gets excited, so we had a feeling that he would enjoy going to a game. Carson was cheering (At one point, he said "Come on Guys" and pumped his fist), clapping, and playing close attention to the game. It was a lot of fun! 
Carson and Mommy cheered for Daddy ("Go Daddy...Go Daddy") during the race this morning (Arnold 5K) in downtown Columbus. Carson was very inspired by Daddy. After the race, he told Daddy "good job" and then he went home and ran sprints in the living room (s0 many sprints that he was sweating by the end of it). 
Carson had fun at COSI with his friend Alex (who will be 3 in just a few weeks!). They played in the toddler area and visited other exhibits (Frogs, Space, etc). They also danced and ran around. How cute are they holding hands! Carson liked sitting on the potty in the space exhibit.
This weekend Carson went to Caleb's 2nd birthday party at the Graeter's Ice Cream Store. He had a lot of fun going down the slide and playing on the banana split see-saw. Of course, he loved the cupcake and ice cream! Happy birthday Caleb!
