Cutie :)








These are just some cute pictures. I love dressing Caden in his little sweater vests, hats, and sometimes I try to dress him like Jeff but Jeff doesn't like that very much! Jeff is sleeping right now- I actually feel rested this morning. Last night we went to Jeff's parents' and Caden spent a lot of time with Grammie. He loves Grammie. She is his next favourite person aside from us. And when we were in NB my Mom was his next favourite person- she could calm him and make him laugh. He doesn't care much for men... Jeff says that is a good thing! :) So he played with his Grammie Jones and then fell asleep on her, and he was asleep from 9:30 until 7:00 this morning. We left at about 10:00 and Caden slept through the night and I was able to sleep from about 11:00-7:00 straight. Well, I guess that is all I will write for now. Have a great Saturday! :)

Helping Daddy







Caden just loves to help Daddy! When Jeff is busy working on the computer, Caden will help him by shutting off the computer and by tugging at the cords! It was so cute- Jeff was busy working away and all of a sudden the screen went black because Caden shut off the computer! Now that Caden can crawl he is into EVERYTHING (he has been crawling for about 3 weeks or so but he is just getting more busy with it now). He doesn't crawl the greatest yet, but he is learning and he is able to drag himself all over the place. Nothing can slow this little guy down. He went after Felix 3 times this morning and each time I had to go and get him and put him back in his room. And each time I did that he would crawl back out to Felix. Caden has a mind of his own! :)

Our Walk




A few days ago I took some pictures of the mountains when we went for a short walk around our place. If you click on the picture to enlarge it, you can see the mountains much better. It has been SO nice here- I haven't even needed a coat. Caden LOVES his walks!

Tuesdays...
























Well, it is just after 8:00 and Caden is in bed. He went into a milk coma after his bottle and that is the easiest way to put him to sleep! :) He can go to sleep without a bottle but it is nice to put him to bed without tears running down his little face.
Tuesdays are a hard day for me because Jeff has to work until 9:00, and he does the same on Thursdays. So I am exhausted. Jeff is the best Dad in the whole world and he helps out whenever he can, but being by myself all evening is still tiring. Oh well... Caden had his first "finger food" today- he wasn't full after sweet potatoes, beef and veggies, pears and applesauce, so I searched the cupboards for something to give him and found an unsalted cracker. Caden took it and ate it like you or I would- I was shocked! I got the camcorder out and took pictures (the last one I put up) and was a retarded Mom! I know! :)
So Sunday night we went out with some friends and Caden did well. He spit up all over DJ's fairly new white carpet and stained it... I felt bad. But Caden had a great time. He fell asleep at 7:00, but when we got home at 10:00 Caden decided that he wanted to play and there are pictures (the top 2) of Caden in our bed. He was SO SO SO happy to be with us! Jeff and I look terrible because we were exhausted. DJ lives about an hour away from us so it was a long drive. We had to let poor Caden cry himself to sleep but he forgave us in the morning. :)
What else? Tomorrow I am going to take Caden to a play group and then we'll hang out with Daddy who is off at noon tomorrow. Next Wednesday my friend, Nicole, from NB is coming and I am so excited! I have a shopping trip planned, a trip to Banff and to the zoo... I still need to run this by Nicole! But it'll be good to see her, and then we'll be going home at the end of June for my sister, Meredith's wedding.
I guess that is all for now. I am wiped so I am just going to relax until Jeff gets home. Bye for now!

He's Alive!

I know many of you have had sleepless nights because you were worrying about Felix... :) Well, he is alive so you don't have to worry any more. He had a bowel obstruction as far as we know (dumb cat!) and $500 and 3 days later he is up and destroying everything as usual. We are still looking for a new home for him- any takers? :)

Here- I fixed this one... Well, Jeff fixed it! :)


Caden's Day

































We had a nice day today. It was very relaxing. We went out to eat with Mike, Kim, Matt, and Tarena, and Caden was very good. He loves restaurant high chairs, and he was busy trying to eat the creamers for coffee... I was able to snap a photo of that! After dinner we hung out with Matt and Tarena and it was fun.
Jeff and I snapped a few photos of us today- my hair is a little wild. I say that I look like a goth but Jeff likes it and it is growing on me... :) I just couldn't afford to keep getting highlights so it is back to a more normal colour for me, although it is a little dark. Oh well... The third picture is showing off Caden's cool shoes- he loves to untie them repeatidly and make things difficult for Mommy and Daddy! Then there is a picture showing off his ladybug hat that he loves so much! And his coat that his Aunt Meredith gave him. Next comes the restuarant photo and then three of him playing just now. He is getting ready for bed. Don't you love his Superman pj's? What a cutie! :)
Oh- sorry for the weird direction of some of the pictures but I don't know how to flip them around...
