Clothes Optional??

I think I may have a streaker on my hands...

When Caden got up from his nap today, he came walking out of his room completely naked. Then as he was finishing eating dinner (I was still making mine) he started taking his clothes off again and took off running through the house. Hard not to laugh at him today but if it happens tomorrow, I will have to control myself...don't want this happening in public! :-) Oh the things kids do!

No photo...but you get the picture!

Handsome boy

Mama's "handsome boy" with his cheese smile

Caden magically becomes my handsome boy after he gets his hair brushed after his bath. If I call him that before he gets his hair brushed, he will tell me "not yet mama, no handsome boy yet". If daddy brushes his hair, then he will come running to find me saying "mama, I handsome boy!" and give me a big hug! Love my little handsome boy! Can't wait to have 2 handsome boys to hug!

Boys and Trucks

Bet you didn't know that a leaf vacuum truck could provide 10-15 minutes of free entertainment! To this 2 year old little boy it does! He heard a truck outside and went running to the window to see it. He stayed and watched the men work to vacuum up all of the leaves on one side of the road and when it went out of sight he went running around asking where it was, looking out all the windows. He was excited when it came back down the other side of the street. Wednesday mornings are usually an exciting day around here as well because that is when the garbage and recycling trucks come!

Family Visits

We had family from both sides come visit us for a total of about 10 days. First, my parents and grandmother came for a couple days and then Jimmy's mom, brother, sister, bro-in-law, niece and nephew came for a week. We had lots of fun and I am glad that we got to spend some time with family that we don't see on a regular basis. I was a little worried about how Caden would do with going potty with everyone around and being busy but he did great! Only one accident the whole time! Here are a few pictures from the visits.

Playing trains with Gigi and Nana

and of course being tickled by Papa

Stayed in Gatlinburg for two nights with Jimmy's family in a three
