This week with my favorite boy

Pajama day at school 3/1/12

We went to the park this week a couple of times.  We played outside a lot.  Caden got lot's of time with Isabel. 


First time getting Mr. Potato head together with ALL parts
in all the right places by himself.  So cute :).


This morning when Caden woke up he woke me up and said, "Momma, I miss you."  BREAK MY HEART!!  I had been gone a lot the last few days and Jared had him to bed the last couple nights before I got home.  I knew he'd been missing me because when I was around he wanted me to hold him non-stop.  If I left the room his sweet little voice would say, "Momma, wheh aw you??" (Mommy where are you?).  My favorite.  Anyhoo, it was pretty sweet.  So, between that and daylight savings woes he and I skipped church today.  We went to Walmart and shopped forever.  He was so well-behaved.  It was great.  "Momma I miss you."  Melt my heart.  I hear that, and "Hey, you want candy for breakfast?  Okay!!"  Haha.  Seriously. 



Helping Daddy in with Laundry Room
renovations.  Insisted on frog boots :).

 New this week, Caden says "Sure" (minus the 'r' sound) tons.  In context.  "Sure momma, sure!!"  So cute.  And now when I tell him we need to change him, ask him if he is hungry, whatever, he says, "No me too fine momma."  He's fine and doesn't need messed with, haha.  "Me too fine."  Love it.

Jared took Caden to the Lorax movie this week.  We'd attempted to take him to Cars 2 last year, but he was too little and the movie wasn't good enough to captivate him.  Not the case with this.  They got there after the credits had been rolling, so it was dark in there.  CW was a little aprehensive and wanted to sit in Daddy's lap.  He sat there the entire time and watched.  At the end when the lights turned on, he looked around in amazement.  He couldn't believe other people were there.  Haha.  He'd thought it was just him and Daddy there the whole time in that big theatre.  So sweet.






This is big - has been terrified of shower.  Went in, wanted
water on, and showered by himself....3 times :).  Love him.


We babysat Isabel for a couple hours for the first time Friday night.  I had asked Caden that morning if he'd help babysit Isabel.  Well, she fussed for a bit while she was here, and Caden crawled up next to her, rubbed her face and said, "You miss T, baby??"  He's so smart.  He figured  she was missing her mommy, 'T'.  Then later he told me he baby needed her T-Boo.  (T and Boo, aka Allie and Bryan aka baby's parents :)).  When it was time for bedtime he told me he couldn't go to sleep because I needed to "sitty the baby."  (Babysit her) til she left.  Ha.

He is officially my kid, in case the jury was still out for some. He knows people's cars. It's crazy. We pull up to school, and he sees Nora's mommy's car, Lizzy's mommy's car, and tells me which is which and that they are at school. Or sometimes we see a red PT on the street and he tells me he sees Bampa's car. He doesn't miss a beat.

Another biggie...wore his baseball cap....and on his own!











Went to the park Monday.  Chilly but had a blast!



Wanted to pull the wagon home from the park.

Or places.  This kid doesn't forget 'em.  Him and Jared walked on the bike path along Pioneers by our house a couple months ago.  He still tells me every time we go down Pioneers that him and daddy go "herrr" (here) and points to the trail.  Oh, and the movie?  Well, when we ran errands  yesterday, when I turned to go down 56th (the way towards the theatre), he told me he and daddy went "herrr" that way to the "moo" (movie).  Then he pointed to the Edgewood Movie theatre as we went by and told me to go there for another "moo."  How does he remember those things??  Doesn't miss a beat,
I'm telling ya!!!

Babysitting Isabel.  He couldn't love her more! (And neither
could we frankly!!)

Caden, Uncle J, and Izz.  Love.

Out to eat for Grammy's birthday.  CW decided to clean up
the salad.  He was in 'rare form' and at this point I didn't seem
to care I guess.  Oops.

My thoughts exactly, "T"!!

Happy Birthday to Grammy (a week early, since she'll

be gone this weekend :)).  WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!
