Easter

I know this blog is officially boring not that is was super exciting before. I've been trying to figure out how to upload pics from new camera, edit and such. Still obviously figuring it out. But for now enjoy the crazy picture overload and kind of out of order.

We went to melanies this year for Easter. Had lunch, Easter Egg Hunt-we stepped it up this year and put nickels, pennies and dimes in the eggs. They loved it. And just as much as we would have spent on candy.It was also Chase's 6th Birtday.


Caden seeing what the Easter Bunny brought him and Macey.



Jenn giving her crazy amount of love to macey



Jenn, Bruce, Chase and Paige eating Chase's birthday cake.



Caden looking for Eggs.



Sweet Macey watching the kiddos hunt.



Not sure what happened but I think this picture is so funny it looks like Paiges leg is broke and its just dragging along. so funny.


Look at these legs. Yum, yum.

The Big Birthday Boy!

These two are so funny.

Bruce and Macey. I think Macey almost weighs more then her uncle Bruce.

The Night before Easter coloring Eggs. Kids liked it, Caden thought it was okay.

Old pics that I like, dont mind the editing still trying to figure it all out.

Day of Cousins

I'm with my sisters pretty often. But we are trying to make it a regular occurance.
The kids are as follows:
Emily has Brady(6) and Cameron(4)
Melanie has Chase (6) , Paige (4) Maddie (1 month)
Jenn has Carter(10 months)
And they all play so GREAT together. Seriously amazing!

Here is Cameron I chase him around with my Camera.

Here are the three babies, Carter, Maddie and Macey

Carter

Macey

Caden, Chase, Paige, Brady and Cameron all being Goofy. Seriously we use to have pictures of all these kids as babies and toddlers on a couch, so sad. They are getting so BIG!




Great picture can you believe they are all looking at me? Such great kids.

Last Soccer Game

Caden has his last soccer game this week. He had a lot of great contact with the ball.



Caden getting ready to do kick-off.

His trophy and lei. So proud of himself.


Chase, Paige and Caden after their last soccer Game.


We might do outdoor or wait til next year to see if Caden is more interested. We'll see.

Spring Break-Friday

Discovery Center, really fun and interactive for Caden

Macey was super happy after starting on meds


Eric looks ghostly, sorry poor camera skills. But aren't they cute?

They had a grocery store, caden practicing at the register

Teaching Caden about Earthquakes, this is after

This is the before

So stinkin' cute this day she was just hammin' it up

They had a helicopter there, Caden didn't was to fly it but just be a passenger. He loved it

We were practicing our careers as future co-hosts

Macey's first time in the backpack and she just smiled and kicked her legs the whole time

Me and Macey. My new hair. Eric hi-lighted it for me. Love him.

Caden loved it and we will definitely go back.

Kind of a poopy spring break for Eric, we are all surprised he hasn't gotten sick. But glad.

Spring Break-Wednesday

So we decided to push through the sickness and go and do something. We decided to head downtown and go to the Discovery Zone. Well biggest mistake of our life its was FREE DAY!!! Biggest mistake possible to go somewhere when its a free day in a land of really cheap people with LOTS of kids. Death we were there for 5 minutes and coerced Caden out of there and promised to come back the next day and just pay.

So we ventured to the zoo. GREAT decision. Caden hasn't been to the zoo since VA. GA it was too expensive.


Caden started off a little grumpy but warmed up real soon.




But Macey was super excited for her first time at the zoo.




Finally a good picture of the two of them. Love them both



Penguins



This was so funny. Caden was so excited to see the Giraffes and you should have heard all the kids asking about the Giraffe and all the moms dodging the question. Awkward.



This is the newest addition to the Zoo, cute little baby girl Elephant

There was a train there and Caden asked the entire time to ride it. Note to self have him ride the train FIRST next time

Spring Break-Tuesday

Tuesday was a rough day. Caden started getting eye gunk and I was feeling yucky. We were trapped in the house while it was gorgeous all day. So in the late afternoon we got out and got some Ice Cream.



Can you believe this Caden eating Ice Cream? He is coming so far.



Our new thing is you have to try everything once. He tried Chocolate Ice Cream and Cake Batter. He went with the Cake Batter.

Seriously you have no idea what a bid deal this is.

That was kind of our day. Kinda lame but we made the best of it in the afternoon

Spring Break-Thursday

Thursday was death. Macey was up half the night screaming til 4am. I passed out in Caden's room twice. Once on Caden's toddler bed and on the floor "watching" Macey. Went to doctor and Macey has Croup, Pink Eye and a terrible Ear Infection. Good times.

We did nothing but suffer this day.

Spring Break-Monday

With the sweet college life comes Spring Break for Eric. We had it all planned out and what happens when you plan things out with kids......Sick. That's right Caden had already been sick for a week, but was still doing terrible. Monday we ran some errands since Caden wasn't doing so hot we didn't do anything too fun.

We happen to live by a GREAT park with 5 different playgrounds. I mean seriously awesome playgrounds. So I wanted to take Eric to show him and try Macey out on the swings.

Caden was obviously thrilled to go to the park.

of course after he woke up from his nap he took in the car, he was passed out. Poor kid.

This was Macey at first on the swings

then she warmed up to them

Caden pushing Macey such a GREAT big Brother and so proud

Serious Macey

It was a great afternoon at the Park.
