The reason I was put on this earth, was to be a mother. I now know this after having our first amazing child!

It's Moving Day!!

 
Packing up and moving out.  This was a great house and Kyle put a lot of heart and soul into it.  I know it was hard for Kyle to leave this house as it has been his house for 21 years, he grew up there, bought it from his parents and that is where we started our family.  I was even a little sad saying goodbye to 1809 as it was Caden's first house, BUT on the other hand SUPER excited to start the next chapter in our lives and get into a house where we could expand our family and make many more memories!

Keeping busy while we pack.


This is all we had left the last week.  By Thursday we were SO sick of sleeping on an air mattress we decided to get a hotel room for the last night.

We had to entertain ourselves somehow!


Goodbye 1809, it's been fun!

Got a room at the Ramada before we moved into the new house.





He looks so grown up here.

Our new house.  We obviously have a lot of yard work to do and the basement isn't finished, but when it is all said and done we will have a 5 bedroom, 3 bath!  3 bedrooms are upstairs (master suite above the garage) so that way when we start trying for our 2nd baby we will have 2 rooms on the main floor.

My mom, dad, Denae and her girls came to help us get settled in.  I don't know what I would have done with out their help.  Thanks again!!  Also thanks again to all my help with the "moving" process.  It was SO appreciated!!

Mom & Denae getting the kitchen organized.  I think it would have taken me a week without them!

Madi & Caden

Macy & Caden were so funny.  When they would hug, it would go on, and on, and on.  Caden looks like he can't wait for it to be over and Macy is loving every minute!  SO cute!!


Of course "Bumpa" is in on the action!


Caden & his auntie

Caden calls my mom "Maka", it's so cute, anyway here Maka is handing out candy to two little birds!!

Breakfast time!  Love Macy's morning hair!

He had to get some work done..


Circus Fun!

Amongst all the chaos, we found time to go to the circus.  Caden only lasted the first half but it was so fun to watch him experience new things. 


He especially loved the elephants, he would have run right in there to touch them if he could have.


April 2011 ~ the busiest month of my life!

This month has been one of the busiest months of my life.  Packing, moving, cleaning, assessments for preschool, Parent teacher conferences and numerous "big" (paper mache) & exhausting projects at school.  SO with that said I haven't posted in awhile as we have been trying to get settled into our new home.  I will post those pictures later, but for now here is some random ones from the month of April.

Here Caden is with his 2 favorite things that go with him everywhere.  His blanket and his sheep.

Gotta have a diaper picture every once in awhile.  Now that we got settled in our house, I actually have a potty chair sitting out just to start getting him interested in it.  The first time he saw it he was excited to sit on it and try it out, but now everytime I ask him if he wants to sit  on his potty I get a very simple "no".

He is very into Trains, Cars & Planes these days!

Gotta love those eyebrows from his daddy!

He definitely knows the word box now!


Do they look guilty or what?  Looks like I caught both of them planning something naughty.


Daddy's new toy that was supposed to be "for Caden" but we all know who it was really for.  Caden does get super excited when Kyle flies it around.


Winter never seems to be ending here...when will it be spring???

Snow shopping

I walked around the corner and caught him sitting in my curio.  Stinker.
