Random Caden Photos

There is no rhyme or reason to these photos except to let the world know we're still alive. I just haven't stopped to take photos of Caden.

I thought this one was funny, he was watching cartoons and turned his head when I snapped the picture. Caden loves trying to put our shoes on. Tonight he chose Daddy's to put on!

First approach the shoes.
Almost on...
Success!!!!!
Now, KICK THEM OFF!Grabbing some goldfish from his chair. MiMi got him a huge box of them from Sam's! Thanks MiMi!

'Do I have something on my face?'

I actually took this one myself and was surprised that it turned out.

Where or where did my baby Caden go? He's all grown up!
I love profile shots.

'Mommy, I'm just trying to watch cartoons and play with my toys. Do we have to do this now? Really?'

One of the only pictures of the night that he was actually looking at me. I think he's saying, 'Enough with the camera Mom.'Here he is looking at one of his favorite books about baby animals. It just so happens it was my book when I was a child.

Here he is talking to Max and Ruby.
Deep in thought...totally looking like Daddy in this one.

Cirque Montage

Tim and I had a date night last night to see Cirque Montage at the Eisemann Center. We had such a great time and have no pictures because picture taking was not allowed. However, we did get some shots of us before we left! Thank you to Grammie for keeping Caden over night so we could get away.

Stetson's 3rd Birthday Party

***By the way, the cute little outfit Caden was wearing was from his Aunt Kay!!!***

Today we all attended Steston's 3rd birthday party at Little Gym.

Caden had to check everything out before participating, but he did finally join in.

He did stop long enough to let me hold him!

Here is Daddy and Caden on the air filled mattress thingy<-that's the technical term for it.All the kids jumped on it, and then they blew mini bubbles to all the kids.Caden and Daddy with the ball that Caden barely put down.Stetson (birthday boy) in the striped shirt jumping. Stetson had a blast...he tried all the activities and you could tell he loved them. He was such a pro!Caden with the ball. Where did our baby go???? He is such a little man now!Here is Daddy flipping Caden on the mat. He loved it!The birthday boy with all his friends!Caden and Mommy drinking punch and getting ready for cake!The first video is of Caden with a ball. He loved watching all the kids jump on the bouncy thing, but he was not a fan of jumping on it himself.

The second video is of Stetson blowing out his birthday candles!


Stetson, we had such a great time at your party! Thank you for having us and we look forward to doing it again next year!

Cooper's 2nd Birthday Party

Today Caden and I went to Cooper's birthday party at Peter Piper Pizza. Caden had so much fun running around checking the place out that I have NO pictures of the actual 'party'!

'I know there is sometimes money in here that people forgot about.''Only 14 1/2 more years and I can drive for real...I might as well practice.'

'I said 14 1/2 more years, why is there a GIRL in my car????'

Here he is driving an ice cream truck with the 'girl' Ainsley.
I love how he leans away from me when we take pictures together...
Checking out the arcade...
Here is a video of him 'driving' the car. Each child got 10 tokens and we spent 8 on this ride. One token per ride!!!! Notice in the video how he hangs his arm outside the car to check out the chick headed to the ladies room!

In The Zone

Caden loves his cartoons! Here he is the other night watching for a few minutes before going to bed. I honestly do not think that if Caillou himself walked through the front door that the child would turn away from the TV! Those of you who do not know Caillou, I have included a picture for reference. By the way, look how long his legs are!!! He is getting so tall. No idea where that came from! HA HA!

Interesting thing about Caillou that Tim brought to my attention. Why doesn't he have any hair? I mean his sister Rosie has hair and she's younger than him? Something to ponder...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY STETSON!!!

Happy 3rd Birthday Stetson! We love you so much and can't wait to celebrate with you this weekend!!!

More New Clothes

Here is Caden this morning in one of his outfits Grammie got him a long time ago. I cannot believe they are already fitting him and they are size 24 months! He is sooooo tall! I'm not sure where he got that from!

I snapped this one just as he turned to look away! He tried taking this with him this morning. I told him, 'No, Mickey has to stay at home.'

My Little Tiger

Here is Caden in his little tiger outfit from GiGi and Poppa. He was roaring like a tiger on the way to daycare!

Play Date with Tatum and My Friend Christine

Today Caden and I went for a play date with Christine a good friend from high school and her daughter Tatum. We were headed to Kid Muze in Coppell and drove up and discovered they were closed, as in closed DOWN! So we headed to the mall and let the kids play.

Here is Caden and me....I love how Caden is acting like he doesn't know who is holding him!Here is Christine with her precious daughter Tatum. Isn't she adorable?!

Here is the best picture we could get with the kids together!
Caden looks like he's saying 'I don't know what to do, she keeps running off!'
Miss Tatum!
We had a great time with them today and cannot wait to meet up again!

Easter Gifts from Poppa and GiGi

Here are some pictures of Caden opening his Easter gifts from GiGi and Poppa. He was so excited to see the package! See the tear on the corner...he did that all by himself.Here he is digging in! He's going for the orange ball of course!

He got this cool dump truck that he pushed all the way across the carpet!

All the loot! He got clothes, candy, 2 books and GiGi and Poppa sent Tim and me a Cadbury egg!

Thank you GiGi and Poppa! We can't wait to put him in the clothes! We love you!
