more Christmas FUN coming SOON...

YEA!!!

off to the races

I'm writing it down as Saturday, November 27th at 14 1/2 months that Camden is walking!

I think it's funny that Friday he wasn't walking, then Saturday he was standing up & taking off.

Well, it didn't take long because THIS is how we spent Sunday:

Cade's 4th birthday

We started the day with Krispy Kreme doughnuts, spiderweb one, of course.

The #1 thing he wanted to do was go back to Spiderman World, so we did.

Yes, the main inflatable is Batman, but to us, it's Spiderman World. :)

For lunch, we ate a picnic in the park.

Cade made it all the way across these monkey bars without help.

For dinner, the family went to Cade's pick, Chuck E. Cheese.

Even Camden enjoyed (sort-of) some rides!

Then, cupcakes & presents at home, my favorite part. :)

Camden's 1st Birthday Celebration!

I really wish I had taken a picture of all Camden's family, sitting all around our couch, doing the "hooray" arms back to him after he did this...it was precious...the best gift of all - a big, amazing family who adore my boys!

Thank you all for making Camden's 1st Birthday a fun celebration!

will someone tell us which camera to look at?!

Happy Birthday, Camden.

Vacation/Sea Doo

I made an executive decision this week and decided we weren't going to go on vacation this year.  With the money we would spend, I bought two sea doo's. 

We took them to the lake yesterday and had a blast.  They are two big three seaters so I'm still trying to figure how Tim and Jenni dumped one over.  I wasn't around to see it.  Jenni was all smiles telling me about it but I got the feeling Tim wasn't as amused.

Oklahoma Heart Hospital carnival

Instead of the annual company picnic or banquet, OHH holds a carnival during Hospital Week...rides, games, food, sno cones, cotton candy, lots of bottled water & suncreen...all set up in the parking lot.

Luckily my iPhone takes video so I could get a clip of Cade's first ride! The quality isn't great, and I wish you could see the grin on his face. :)

At the start of the video, they are in the cart facing the camera in the middle of the screen. At the end of the video, you can hear Chad "whoa"ing by...

TOO fun!

now you're just showing off!

Last night was our last t-ball game of the season on the 4-under Super Heroes Team.

We are so proud of Cade, the youngest one on the team!

He's had his moments, and he doesn't always go for the ball...

...but last night he did a little show-boating that was pretty funny.

We were down to only about 7 players, and only 6 who actually stayed in the game.

So Cade got several at-bats.

He decided he needed to go up and hit the home plate with his bat.

Then Coach Zach was trying to teach him to hit the plate then hit his shoes. funny...

Here's the little slugger at bat:

playing 1st base with Coach Zach

rounding 3rd base with Coach Dad

THEN...

Cade, on his own accord, SLID INTO HOME BASE! LOL

TWICE!

No one else has done that this season, it really was quite funny!

worth every penny :)

have you heard about 'my' birthday/anniversary/mother's day present???

let my 1st pictures speak for themselves...

this one is of Cade running to 2nd base...

...but the best part of the picture is the other team!

LOL

Cade's last t-ball game of the season is this Friday!
