Mmmm, Mmmm, Good!

We are loving trying new foods that don't have to be fed to us in a spoon!

Yes, that is Ele's nose.... She is learning quick that she likes this new stage of C feeding himself! It is nice for me, not to have to sweep it all up!

Par-tay Weekend!

December is such a busy time of year...I really want to make sure that even with all the hustle and bustle I slow down and enjoy this time since it is Caden's only first Christmas. We had a very fun, busy weekend. It started Friday night with my school Christmas party. C stayed with my parents for the evening. It was the longest he had ever been away from us (other than daycare.) It was a nice date evening for us! Then Sat. we made a daytrip to Ft. Worth for G's sixth b-day! I can't believe he is 6!!!! and in kindergarden!!!
The party was at the same jumphouse it was at last year...The big boys enjoy it as much as the little boys!!!

Caden thought he was in heaven because he could bounce on every surface....

He wasn't too sure about going down the slides...he would much rather jump.

We ended the weekend with a Christmas party and

book exchance with our Shepherding Group at church!

But no pics from that!!!

My Gangsta Child !

C has had a double ear infection for the past three weeks. We are on our second antibiotic! Poor thing, he gets pretty fussy really easily just because he is in pain....so after being cooped up in the house...Daddy decided we needed a break....so they went out to the front porch and played for while....I was shocked that the fussin stopped and he was actually content! Brent calls this his "gangsta outfit"!
Ignore the dead plants!

We love you, Jumperoo!

Caden has found a new love! He has a jumperoo at daycare and B and I were unaware of how much he loved it! He would come home and bounce in our arms until our arms wanted to fall off.....so after talking to his sweet girls that keep him, we discovered he loves the jumperoo! So we caved and bought him one! It makes getting things around the house done a little easier! Lots of Jumping =

Daddy's Hat

There is just something about hats!!! Caden already loves them....just not on his head! He loves to play with B's hat...and his favorite thing about Grandpa is his Clack Cardinals hat. He recently got really excited when looking at a picture of Grandpa with his hat on.....Grandpa likes to believe that he was excited at the sight of seeing him....but we all know it was that red and white hat!!!

Thankful Hearts

Every year we are so thankful that our families live in the same town. It can get kinda crazy, but it truly is a blessing that we are able to share Thanksgiving day with both of our families. Of course this year, we have one precious blessing that we are so thankful for! He has changed our lives, and we can't imagine each day without him!

We started at my parents for lunch....

Caden's Thanksgiving dinner!

Grandma decided to feed him the real stuff.....he wasn't real sure what to think!
