That's right on December 10th, 2008 Carter Michael Noftle Big Tough Awesome Straight turned four. Four, how did my BABY turn four? Now some of you may be wondering about his lengthy name. Since Carter was 2 or so we have been teaching him his name is Carter Michael Noftle and we always get the same response, not Michael. He has vehemetly denied for 2 years that Michael is not a part of his name. We even tried to bribe him once with a new light saber if he would admit to the middle name of Michael, it was to no avail. So for the past year his Daddy, original Michael (like original crispy - makes me hungry for KFC) has been negotiating with Carter to include Michael in his name. Carter always has a lengthy name for himself sometimes it has been Carter Cougar Noftle or Carter Noftle green yellow (favorite color plus his hair color) or Carter Noftle Big Tough Awesome Straight which has been his name for the last six months or so. By the way straight refers to the fact that when he sits on his Dad's lap he knows how to sit still or "straight" and not be wiggly. Bet you were wondering about that! So to make a short story longer he is now four and now lets us say the Michael part of his name, haven't heard him verbally admit yet but baby steps, baby steps! Here is some Carter lingo to brighten your day;
anysing=anything
chechup=ketchup
Sairduh=Sierra
uke tywalker=Luke Skywalker
yightlen a queen=Lighting McQueen
tweep=sleep
plelo=pillow
tumming=coming
turcht=church
nack=snack
twattwick=chocolate
pep in ronies=pepperoni
As you can seen that if you check the blog next year at this time you will most likely be hearing about Cougar man's visit to the speech therapist! We are loving this little guy and his antics so much. I was really worried about having one kid at home-afraid that he wouldn't have a playmate or whatever but it has been great. I think he has great days with me and then he is always thrilled when the kids get home too. He just always seems to be happy. What a lucky family we are Carter makes the best caboose!

How we love Carter too...we here his name often in this household, most of the time it involves Star Wars or lite sabers! So glad the boys have Carter to play with at preschool too! They sure enjoy him!!!
Here, hear...whatever, I'm lossing my mind (had to do that one (losing) on purpose :)
He may have Michael's middle name but....... he looks like Grandpa Kent when he was little. Hopefully he's not as spoiled!!! Happy Birthday Carter.... Why do we have so many December birthdays?
Happy birthday Cougar man! It is so fun for Dexter to have a couzin only 10 days older than him. He (Carter) told me on the phone that he was getting a light saber like Dexters for his birthday! Did his wish come true??
Happy Birthday Carter! Hope you had a great 4th birthday. Love, The Miller's
Your family wouldn't be complete without the Cougar Man. He's definitly a little flash of sunshine running through your house. I hope this next year doesn't go too fast!
I love Carter too! He always cracks me up. Happy Birthday boy with a long name!
