Fun at the Park

Aaron has been out of town this week so the boys and I needed to get out. So yesterday we headed down to Aunt Katy's to take the kids to the park and play. Kaden was excited to play with Bracken and Elise. They had a ton of fun and Tanner loves the slides.

Photography By Kaden

I finally uploaded all the pictures from Kaden's camera. Just wanted to share some of them, most of them were taken by Kaden and possibly a few by Tanner, who knows. Aaron did take the on of Kaden with the pirate hat. I just think it is so funny the things they take pictures of...the wipes, the T.V. a tree, a plate, a bike..etc! Looks like there are a couple of self portraits in there too. At least he did take a few pictures of his brother and his aunt and cousin!

Happy Feet

Cute Tan Tan dancing with Mumble! If you look close enough and you can hear past Kaden whining at me in the background, you can hear Tanner trying to sing it too!

Just An Update...

Just wanted to blog about what's going on around here. Tanner has been talking a ton lately! A few of his new words are "Nemo, Elmo (Mel-mo), Barney, Kaden, Buzz, Thank you (tank to) and move (oove)..he especially likes to say that to Bella! He has been a little polly parrot the last few days, he tries to say just about anything you tell him to. Of course, only I understand most of it, but I know what he trying to say! He is still a little monkey and has turned into quite the dare devil, trying to copy whatever Kaden does..including front flips from the arm of the couch! He loves to wear Kaden's underwear over his diaper..especially the ones with Spiderman or Lightning McQueen.Little monkey boy on the table..such a little cheeser!

As for Kaden, he is just a sweet, sassy, cute little boy with attitude! For the most part, he loves playing with his little brother and is very sweet to him..although they definitely have their fighting moments! Kaden has been on a baby kick lately..he told me that we need 5 babies, so we need to have 3 more..ha ha..isn't that funny! I hope he doesn't know something I don't! Although, he did just tell Aaron the other day, he would be happy if he just had a little sister! He is such a smart boy and is really big into numbers lately..he is always trying to figure out addition problems and I hear him count the stairs every time he walks up and down them! He is still playing basketball and loving it! Kaden had his very first dentist appointment last week. He was such a good boy. He does have a few little spots of decay in between his molars that they are going to fix before they turn into cavities! He loved going to the dentist and asked if he could go everyday..I think it was because they have video games and he gets lots of cool new stuff.

I know you are not surprised ..Kaden is in his underwear..as for the balloons...he said they were his weapons!?

Aaron's Birthday @ Epcot

For Aaron's birthday, we went to Epcot for a few hours then we met up with our friends Kristi and Cory for dinner. It was Kristi's birthday too, so it was fun to celebrate with them!

Even though he turned 30, he had a great birthday. Thank you for all your calls and emails to wish him a Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Aaron!

Today is Aaron's birthday..ok, not just his birthday, but his 30TH birthday! Sorry babe..I just had to tell everybody! He has been in denial that he is actually 30! Really, 30 isn't so bad!

So we just want to say ......

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

We love you and hope you have a great 30th birthday!

This picture was taken the other day when we celebrated with Deryl, Katy & the kids

Supercross at Daytona International Speedway

As I am sure you all know, Aaron LOVES motocross! So to help celebrate his birthday coming up, we went to the big Supercross race at Daytona! After all day with the strong thunderstorm warnings and tornado warnings, they said they were still going to hold the race. So we packed up all our rain gear and headed out! As you can see in the pictures, the track is pure mud! By the time the main event came around it was down pouring and the track was a swamp! Bikes were getting stuck in big mud holes and the guys were ripping off their goggles they couldn't see anything. We were pretty wet, but we had lots of fun, the rain actually made the race pretty exciting!

Mardi Gras Parade

Last Saturday, we took the boys to see the Mardi Gras Parade at Universal Studios. They had some really cool floats and everybody threw beads at you (unlike regular Mardi Gras , there was no flashing going on!) :) The boys really enjoyed the parade with all the tall people and pretty lights! Universal Studios celebrates Mardi Gras on Saturdays in February through April with a parade, concert and lots of Mardi Gras food and music. Gretchen Wilson was playing in concert when we went but there were so many people we weren't able to get very close. We just watched her on the big screen. Kaden was really disappointed, he wanted to go right up by the stage. So maybe we will try to go again and just get there early so we can get good seats to a concert!

Brothers and Best Friends

Here are just a few pictures of Kaden and Tanner playing together. They love to build tents with blankets...they will play, play, play forever! Tanner loves playing with his big brother and follows him everywhere and trys to do everything he does!

For All His Fans

I know you all love Tanner's belly laugh, so I was able to get this on video. We were having dinner and Kaden was making Tanner laugh. He was just making silly faces and noises, but Tan Tan thought it was the funniest thing ever. Nobody can make Tanner laugh like Kaden can, he just loves his big brother! Hope you all enjoy! We just love this silly boy!

Make sure to scroll down and pause the music before you push play. Sorry I can't figure out how to rotate the first video..so just turn your head! :)

Animal Kingdom

Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day! Kaden was so excited for Valentine's Day, I don't really think he understands what it is all about, he just knew he was going to get a present! We had a play date with our friends Kristi, Ty and baby Luke. They came over to play and make Valentine cupcakes. Kaden loved decorating the cupcakes, he piled on a TON of sprinkles. So many that he was asking me to scrape off the frosting. There were so many spinkles, it probably tasted like eating a pile of sand! YUCK!

We made a yummy dinner for Aaron. Steak, twiced baked potatoes and salad. Aaron brought home cards and balloons for everybody! Tanner was very excited, he loves balloons! Kaden also got a new hot wheels track and a Scooby Doo movie and Tanner got some new Barney movies! Yay, for me! I got tired of the other 2 we have! Aaron got me a new laptop..I am so excited! I don't have to sit in the corner upstairs in the office anymore! We hope you all had a great Valentine's Day full of lots of Love!

Tanner's 18 Month Check-Up

Tanner had his 18 month check up today! He weighs 21 lbs (3rd percentile), he is 32 1/4 inches (25th percentile) and his head measured at 18 (25th percentile). So just a little scrawny..but healthy! No shots today, YAY! He was all up to date on his shots so he lucked out..no more until he turns 2! How sad, that will be his next check up..he will be a toddler and not a baby anymore!

Some new things Tanner is doing these days....he still loves animals. He says just about every animal sound except kitty..he won't even try that one. His new favorite thing is Barney! AHH! He loves Barney movies! Sometimes when he wakes up in the middle of the night, he points to the T.V. and asks for "BA BA" that means Barney! He also likes to watch Elmo, the ones without Snuffy in them...Snuffy scares him for some reason!

Tanner is our little monkey, he climbs everything. The pantry shelves, the refrigerator shelves, on the kitchen table, on the coffee table..you name it..he trys to climb it! He trys to do eveything Kaden does! Aaron taught him how to karate chop, so he says "ah-ya" and trys to kick or punch!

Tanner knows all his body parts..he will point to them when you ask him where they are (eyes, mouth, teeeth, hair..ect..) He also thinks it is so funny to spank his own bum!

He is such a sweet boy, he loves to give kisses and loves! He is just growing up too fast!

I just had to post the picture from when Tan Tan was only a few weeks old! I just love that picture..he was such a sweet, tiny baby!
