Pictures..





So, only God knows why, but I got a hair up my butt to take some pics of Caden! Imagine this, I took a black table clothe that I used to use for jewelry and attached it to the back of my couch in my game room.. So it kind of flowed downward.. very elegantly I might say. Anyway, I thought to myself, is this too much work then it's worth? Maybe, but now I want to do it even if I have a sucky camera! So after I get the couch all turned around to face the window so that the sunlight would act as a very professional lighting system for my pics.. I then decided to get Caden changed. Well, my little child didn't want to change clothes.. He really just wanted to play, but I'll be darned if all my hard work in setting up the perfect photo taking environment was going to be messed up cause my 22 month old wanted to play... Well I'll let the pics speak for them selfs on whether or not that worked out for me......

At the gym!

Well I go and workout 3 days a week on average... I say on average because most of the time it's more like 1-3 times since with a toddler you just never know what's gonna happen tomorrow. Well, when we go to the gym most of the time I put him in the daycare there or I'll leave him with family if they ask. Anyway, he loves the daycare at the gym. I'll put him in there and he doesn't think twice about going to find something to play with. It's like, see ya mom and he's gone! Makes me kind of sad because he never was an attached child and the older he gets the less and less he feels he needs me....
Anyway I digress... back to the story... the daycare providers don't usually say much to me when I drop him off or pick him up. They are kind of in a hurry to get back to the kids. Well, today when I picked him up they lady said she had to tell me something that Caden did. I knew right then this would be interesting.. She said that Caden came and got his jacket and said "go bye bye" and tried to get out! Ha! I started laughing, only because this is an issue I have been having with him all month long. He just doesn't want to be home.. or really anywhere for that matter. He just wants to go! I'll be sitting on the couch and all of the sudden I'll hear my back door beep and Caden is in the garage ready to go! Anyway, pretty cute I thought!

Easter

So Easter went very well this year! Last year he was too little to really understand exactly how an Easter egg hunt went.. But, this year he was off once he got the hang of it. It was really cute. So on Saturday we went to our towns little Easter egg bash they had going on.. We totally missed the egg hunt for his age. So we threw him in with the 5 year olds! He could stand his own ground! He went out there and grabbed those eggs like there was no tomorrow.

Then Sunday we gave him his little Easter basket and he went crazy with the Thomas the train the Easter bunny brought for him. After lunch we had a big hunt out front with our neighbors. We used both of our yards to do the hunt so the kids were going crazy! Poor Caden got off to a slow start but non the less he had a good time. And we had fun watching him!

Where are we going?

So yesterday we were on our way out the door and Caden was standing in the garage waiting for me to finish putting my things in the car. I guess he got tired of waiting on me and asked "where are we going"? I said, did you ask me where are we going? He said "yesh".. haha he cracks me up. One day it will be all baby gibbersih with maybe one or two words that I know then the next he pops out a sentence like that. I guess he's more like his father then I thought :)

Oh My Dosh!

A lot of yall probably have already heard this story... But this is a great one to start off with! The other day Caden was sitting on my lap and really examining his sippy cup. He started to notice that the paint on the cup was peeling off. He then looked up at me very seriously and said " mama, oh my dosh"!! Which is hilarious to me, mainly because I say "oh my gosh" all the time! The things that come out of his mouth...

My First Blog!


So I decided to "blog". I never would have seen myself as a blogger, but I guess the times have changed me. I mainly started this blog because of Caden. He's getting so big so fast and learning so much, taking so much and saying those crazy things! I thought this would be a good way to share everything that has been going on in "the life of Caden" with all of our friends and family that care so much for Caden. I hope you find this blog as interesting as I'm sure it will turn out to be!

Enjoy!
