What a Day!

To celebrate Kaden's birthday, Jeremy and I took the day off of work so that we could spend all day with him. We started the day off by going to the zoo. It was a beautiful day to visit the zoo. We got there right when it opened so it wasn't busy at all. All the animals were out and active. Here are some pictures from our zoo trip...

Here are my two favorite boys

After the zoo we headed home to get Kaden a nap. Once he woke up we left once again and headed to Chuck E. Cheese. He just has so much fun playing all the games there...and so do Jeremy and I. Jeremy won a ton of tickets on a few different games...so we were able to get Kaden some good prizes.

This ride is like a simulator where the seat moves and vibrates. When the seat would vibrate it would shake Kaden's cheeks so much. It was funny! He looks so serious...but he really was enjoying it.

This snowboarding game is definitely his favorite.

Here he is with all of his goodies. Needless to say...I think that Kaden had a very good birthday!

Happy Birthday, Kaden!

Kaden

Wow! Where has the time gone?! We cannot believe that our baby is already four years old! Our precious little man, we cannot tell you how much we love you! You have changed our lives in a way that we could have never imagined. Everyday you do or say something amazing! We just don't know where you get the stuff from. You are so much fun to be around. We just cannot believe that four years have already flown by. Hopefully soon you will have a sibling that you can teach the ropes to because we would love to have another child like you. The last four years have been a blast with you...and we know that we have many more fun years to come! We love you more than you could possibly know! Happy Birthday, Kaden!

Love,

Mommy and Daddy

So Kaden's birthday isn't until Thursday...but we had his party today. It turned out very nice. The theme was Monster Jam. He got so many fun and exciting toys! Then he got one big surprise at the end! Here he is before we left for his party...

Doesn't he look like such a preppy little man?

So I can't get the pictures from my Mom's camera to work...so we will just skip ahead to the BIG surprise! He got a dirt bike from Jeremy and I. He also got all the protective gear from all the grandparents. Here is his newest toy!

Happy Birthday Little Man!

My Little Monster

Jeremy and Kaden had hair appointments and dentist appointments today. Kaden came home looking like the Incredible Hulk. He has the Hulk hands so he had to put those on before he would let me see him...but of course by the time I grabbed the camera he had taken them off and wouldn't put them back on. Oh well. Here he is with his green hair! Next was the dentist appointment. He looked like a little monster with the green hair and purple teeth. The purple stuff is to see how much plaque is on his teeth. Even though the picture makes it look like his teeth are full of plaque, they really weren't. The dentist couldn't believe how good he brushes his teeth. Here is my little monster! Isn't he so cute?!?!

Hope you have a great weekend! :o)

What a Circus!

Thursday night Jeremy, Kaden and I went to the Zenobia Shrine Circus with my mom, stepdad, and my nieces. It was so much fun! I loved it...but to look down the row and see the kids eyes lit up with excitement is just so neat! They all got some light up toys and then during intermission all the girls got their faces painted. Kaden didn't get his face painted because clowns were doing it and he is not a big fan of clowns. Instead he got some light up glasses. Here are a lot of pics from our fun night...

Here are the kids looking down onto the street we were walking over.

Hope everyone has a great weekend! :o)

Beautiful Weather

It has been so nice here the last two days...and it is supposed to be even warmer tomorrow. We have taken advantage of this nice weather. We have gone on a walk both nights and tonight Kaden even rode his bike a little. I wasn't sure if he would remember how to ride it without the training wheels...but he had no problems. Here are some pictures of him enjoying playing outside...
Hope everyone has a great weekend! :o)

Doctor's Appt.

So I had another doctor's appointment today. I have still been having irregular periods since the D & C. It has been almost three months since that so I never thought that I still would be having two periods a month. Luckily my doctor said that everything looks good. Hopefully soon we can try again for another baby. Kaden just asked me the other day if I had a baby in my belly yet. I told him that I didn't, but hopefully soon there would be a baby in there. He then said, " I am sick of waiting!" I told him that I am sick of waiting too. He is so ready to be a big brother. He is hoping for a little brother. Kaden only has girls to play with in our family...so we'll have to wait and see if his wish comes true. If you have had a miscarriage, how long did it take your body to get back to normal?
