We had our ward Halloween Party last week. Trying to keep Carter within our sight was not an easy task. The food and everything was outdoors. We got our plates of food and sat on the grass, hoping that Carter would sit and eat. Well, he did sit and eat but not by us. He insisted that he needed to sit by his "friends!" He found some boys sitting a little ways off and made himself comfortable. I asked Jeremy if we were uncool already? Can a 2 year old really feel that he has to sit with his friends at a ward diner?
After church this week he ran off in the parking lot. Jeremy chased him and told him he needed to go to his room for time out. On the ride home he kept saying "Mommy, I am sorry." Then he said, "Mommy, that was not a good choice, I am sorry." Ha, how could I not laugh. Unfortunately for Carter, bad choices give us bad consequences, even when we are sorry.
I will post pictures of our cute costumes soon!
Good things:
1. Carter's first time really enjoying Halloween.
2. Carter now voluntarily says he is sorry, even if he doesn't mean it.
3. When both kids nap at the same time!
