Todd was playing with Avery the other night and tried his shorts on his head. Avery thought it was hilarious. He looks like a completely different boy. Lol.

It was a beautiful day on Saturday, so we decided to take the boys to the park. It was so nice that we decided that we would just walk over there. It is about 1-2 miles from our house and it only took us 20min to get there. Yay for exercise!! It was so much fun to watch Avery play at the park. Kaeden fell asleep on the way over there, so we got to focus on Avery for a little while. Which was really good for him. I think the swings were the favorite for both of them. It is amazing to watch them grow and learn more everyday.

Jobs and updates

Todd is employed!!!!!! YAY!!!! We are so excited that he was able to finally find a job. He will be working M-F with some on-call, but no where near the amount that he was having at his previous position. We are not sure what hours he will be working, there are three different schedules. 8:30-5,10-6, or 11-7 and it may change from week to week. He is doing the same thing he was doing before, which is oxygen and dme delivery. He is also making about $0.50 more than he was making before which is awesome!!! I am going to keep working some evenings and probably the weekends so that we will be able to get caught up on everything and the I think I am going to try and do some daycare. So that we will have a bit of extra income. It has been a good couple of weeks. Todd finished up with the ticket and accident and found out that since he went to court and traffic school, he wasn't going to have any points put on his record, so he still has a clean record!! We also took the boys into the doctor for their check-ups. Avery is now 28lbs 8 oz, 34.5 in tall and his head is 51.5 cm around. He is in the 75%-95% for his age. Kaeden is 18lbs, 27 in tall, and his head is 45 cm around. He is in the 25%-50% for his age. So basically, we have our big boy and our normal size boy. lol. We have been so blessed with our wonderful boys. Life is wonderful!!!

Avery's toy car was in the living room so we decided to see how Kaeden would do sitting in it and he absolutely loved it!! I love the look like, why haven't let me play in this before???

Here he is just grinning for Daddy. He is such a happy little guy!

Now, I know you can't tell, but this is about 30 sec before he moved his feet and slipped of the car and right out from underneath it. He wasn't sure what to think after that. Lol

Total cuteness!

So, I thought that Kaeden looked so cute in his church outfit Sunday. I just love him!!

RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, let me preface this by saying that I absolutely love my boys. I do, but seriously, there are some times that I just really have a hard time. lol. Tonight we were giving the boys a bath, when Avery once again decided that he was going to poop in the bathtub!! So gross!!! UGH!!!! We had not even had a chance to wash them yet. So, we grabbed them out of the bathtub and decided to finish the bath in the kitchen sink. Here are a couple pictures of my handsome boys. They are just too cute to stay mad at. hee hee.

Starting Early....

So I came home the other day and this is what I found. Daddy had set Kaeden on his lap and was having him play right along with him. Too cute!!

Have fun Ladies!

7mths old!

Hi! My name is Kaeden Joe. This is my first time putting a post here on our family blog. I am now 7 months old and quite the happy camper. I have learned quite a bit in the few months that I have been around. I am now sitting up on my own and reaching for anything that I can see. I roll over like a champ, but I get kind of frustrated when I get onto my stomach. I love the jumper that Mommy and Daddy put me in!! It is so much fun to play in and it gives me a great view of what is going on around me. I have the best older brother named Avery. I think he has put a post up here too. He is so great to me, he loves to make me laugh and he also gives me tons of hugs and kisses. Sometimes, he tries to share his toys with me which is great! I have also started to eat solid foods. I LOVE applesauce and sweet potatoes. I am not to sure about peas and greenbeans though. There is also a really cool guy that comes around the house sometimes, he is only around when I am in the bathroom or right in front of Mommy's closet door. He grins when I grin and he laughs when I laugh. The weird thing is when Mommy is holding me, she is also holding him. I haven't quite figured out how she has mastered that, but hopefully one day she will teach me. Okay well, that is what I have been up to I better go now, cause I am getting cranky because it is time for my nap. Hope I can see you all soon. Love you!!

Love!

Mommy and I went to the park today. We left Daddy at home with Kaeden who was sleeping. We had soo much fun! I got to climb up on the equipment and I went do the slide all by myself!! It was great! I also had Mommy push me in the swing. It was lots of fun too! I had a hard time walking in the sand though, it is so hard to keep my balance! I love to feel the sand between my fingers - it is really interesting. I also discovered that you can through it in the air and if you throw it at the slide it makes a funny noise when it hits it. Once I was done playing in the sand, I decided that it was time to run around in the grass.

I saw this flock of birds hanging out in the grass and decided that I wanted to give them some love.

But when I tried to get closer and give them some love, they all flew away at once! It was amazing to see.

Me and Mommy had a great day at the park and I can't wait till we get to go back again!!
