Alyssa's 2nd Birthday Party

While Kaden and I were in Virginia Beach we got to celebrate our friend Alyssa's 2nd birthday with her. All the kids had a blast at Chuck E. Cheese's, but they didn't quite understand that they had to come back to the table to have cake and open presents. Colleen finally got Alyssa to have some cake, but Kaden screamed and ran back to the rides and games. At least they had fun. (The first picture if of Alyssa, Colleen's daughter, and the last picture is of Kaden and Ashlynn, Becky's little girl)

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Everyone! I know that it's already a week into the new year, but we've been out of town. I hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday season. I'm sure that most of you are glad that you have another year before it's here again. A few of my friends and I (Colleen, Kelly, and Becky) actually got to go out for New Year's Eve this year. Of course, by 9 o' clock we were ready to go to bed, but we forced ourselves to make it to midnight to bring in the new year. (We were home at 12:15). My only New Year's Resolution is to get Kaden potty trained this year. He'll be 2 on the 31st of this month so hopefully that is an achievable goal. I guess that time will tell.

Virginia Beach Visit

Kaden and I went to Virginia Beach to visit for a week after Christmas. We stayed with Colleen and Alyssa (top pictures) and got to visit all of our friends. We even got to see our newest friend, Piper (bottom pictures), who is Jon and Cynille's baby girl. We had a great time even though the time went by too fast!!

Merry Christmas!!

Kaden had a great time opening all of his present and everyone elses! He didn't understand that not all of the present were for him. Of course after he opened one of his presents with some cars in it, he didn't want to open any more for awhile because he was playing with the cars. So, he took a break and opened up the rest later on. Merry Christmas to everyone!!!

Making Christmas Cookies

Kaden and I got together with some of my best girlfriends and their kids, and we made Christmas cookies. The kids decorated the cookies while us women caught up on all of the latest gossip. The girls were way more into decorating the cookies then the boys were, but we did manage to convince the boys to decorate a few cookies. They even decorated a few more than they ate! : )

Big Shoes to Fill

Kaden and I made it safely to Indiana. Kaden has made himself right at home at Grandma and Papaw's house. Upon arrival he quickly commenced to getting out every single toy that they have here and trying on Papaw's boots. We've been finishing up our Christmas shopping this week and today we went to the mall to see Santa. After waiting an hour and a half, I spent $15 for a picture of Kaden crying on Santa's lap. I guess that when Kaden's 18 we'll look back at the picture and laugh. Today I wasn't laughing. After that long of a wait (because Santa didn't show up when he was supposed to) I wanted to cry too!!

Christmas Party

We went to the MFF School's Christmas Party over the weekend. Santa even came to visit and brought presents for all of the children. I tried to get Kaden to sit on his lap, but he wasn't having any part of that. He did participate at the craft table and played some of the games. We had a good time.

Princess Birthday Party

Kaden attended his friend, Hailey's, Princess Birthday Party over the weekend. But as you can see in the pictures, he was more excited that he got to drink out of a can of sprite and play with a Barbie spinning toy. He was oblivious that it was any one's birthday. He didn't even eat a piece of cake. Don't be misled by the pictures into thinking that he was the only boy at the party. There was a table full of boys, but Kaden chose to sit with the girls. . . Already a ladies' man.

Baths are for Babies

Kaden has decided that he really likes to take shower's with Daddy instead of taking a bath. He's a maniac in the shower though. I swear that he's going to drown!! He has no fear of the water!! I'd think that it'd be hard for Daddy to actually get in his showering, but somehow he manages to do it around Kaden playing. : )

Tell Me Again. . .

Why I can't play with the Christmas tree ornaments????



We're working on it. : )
