First Day of School

Kaden's first day of school was this week.  We are so proud of him...it was a very exciting time at our house!

Last Friday...

Last Friday Gran and AunT came to spend the weekend with us.  AunT and Uncle Dusty got engaged so AunT wanted to show off her ring to mommy.  I got to go swimming with the Hales and we went to the Brewers game.  We had lots of fun, plus mommy, AunT and Gran went dress shopping and were very successful!

Kaden's favorite is Prince Fielder

Love you guys!

Perfect Summer Week...

This past week we had the best week of the summer!  Yes, we have been busy--Florida, South Dakota twice, baseball, projects, but this last week we were BUMS!  It was so great!  That is what it is all about!  Started Sunday afternoon when we went swimming at Yogi Bear.  When we returned home our neighbors and daddy were finishing up some outside projects.  Mommy and daddy had a few "daddy sodas" and "mommy yum yums", time got away from them...I got to play so late outside in the dark, order pizza, run through the sprinkler, and have a blast with my friends.  Next thing you know ALL our neighbors were outside joining our party--spur of the moment block party.  It was so fun.

Monday I had my last game of tee ball, plus of course day 2 of the pool.  Tuesday, daddy's last softball game, day 3 of the pool.  Wednesday, Thomas special spot balloon launch at the OCCC, day 4 of the pool.  Thursday, swim lessons, day 5 of the pool.  Friday, the zoo and my special date with mommy to pick out my school supplies.  Here are a few pictures to sum it up!

Visit to South Dakota

Last week we spend the week in South Dakota with Gran and Papa, AunT and Uncle Dusty.  We got to do so much but more importantly spend time with the people we love the most.

Mitchell Rodeo Parade

SO much candy...SO much fun!

T-Ball

Kaden loves t-ball.  He played excellent on Wednesday night!  It is so fun...and a little crazy at times.  To be honest, I think both Kaden and Laney enjoy the playground more:)

July 4th

Mommy is going to try this blog thing again. Here are pictures from the Fourth of July. We made a quick trip to South Dakota to visit Gran in the hospital, so eight hours in the car and a stop at McDonald's everyone was ready for outside time.

Laney's first experience with fireworks--Kaden assisting.

Pretty and Laney--One of the few words Laney can say is "Preddy, Preddy".

Papa meets Laney

Gran and Papa came this last weekend from South Dakota. Papa met Laney for the first time because he was coaching wrestling and his season just finished. I was so excited to see them. On Thursday I was sick, so Gran took care of me. Mommy was glad she was here that way mommy didn't have to take off any school. Laney went to Miss Amy's...I had Gran and Papa all to myself. We didn't stay at home ALL day, we went shopping and to McDonalds. On Friday, I got to show Gran and Papa my school and they even met my teachers and friends. Friday night Laney and I stayed at home while mommy and daddy went bowling. This was the first date they had been on since Laney was born. Mommy didn't even cry when she left. I stayed up late and had ice cream with Papa. Gran took me to soccer on Saturday. I had to kick the ball around the cones..."I was not good". But Papa told me I need to practice and I will get better.

Painting and drawing are my hobbies. My mommy tells me I am really good at it.

Laney meets Papa for the first time...she's cute eventhough she pooped through her outfit at Miss Amy's. Don't worry it happens about twice a week:( We can't have anything nice! I think Papa is in love with her.

Laney and I loved playing with Gran.

Happy Birthday, Daddy!

Happy Birthday, Daddy. Our daddy's birthday was on St. Patrick's Day. We decorated our kitchen, baked daddy a cake, and went to get Delaney and my picture take for daddy's desk. Birthdays are my most favorite...I am just like my AunT. It doesn't matter whose birthday it is I get so excited.

Here is the picture I wrapped for daddy from Delaney and me.

Mommy, Daddy, Delaney and I

All dressed in our green so we don't get pinched!
