My Baby

"Baby Caiden"

I wonder how long he will be "Baby Caiden?" Hopefully not when he is a freshman in high school. That would totally suck. He is growing so fast and wears me out. As I write this blog, he is sitting on the floor with a book on his lap reading it aloud to me. I just love him. He talks allllll the time, loves his daddy, loves Cars and robots. He is my little Dennis the Menace. He means well, but man, trouble just follows him around....

("How you doin?")

Big Boy

Corgan is almost 4. wow. He is no longer a "toddler" but he is a little boy. He loves to run and jump and play with "baby Caiden." He gives the best hugs and kisses and melts my heart when he says, "You are my favorite mommy in the whole world."

What a mess

What am I going to do with him?

Caiden and GiGi Brown

My grandmother and her husband moved across the street from my mom and dad (soooo sorry mom) and the boys have enjoyed going across the street to play. Grandma has alzheimers and is always so excited to meet the boys. Several times a visit. ;) Caiden really loves his great grandma Brown. He loves for her to hold him and snuggle with him, and she happily obliges. Corgan adores Great Grandpa Brown and has him neatly wrapped around his little finger. Aren't grandparents wonderful?

Ewwwwww....

So yesterday I was updating my blog. Corgan was watching "Super Why" (freaking cute show on PBS) and Caiden was playing in the kitchen with his cars. I click "Post" and decide Caiden's a bit too quiet in the kitchen and I need to check on him.

"Awww man! Who spilled the chocolate milk? Wait a minute. That's chunky. That's not chocolate milk! EWWWWW!!!!"

Needless to say, the stench had wafted to my nostrils at that moment and I realized someone's diaper couldn't hold his load. Honestly, I was gagging as I cleaned crap up off of the floor. Caiden, however, thought it was simply hilarious. Nasty, nasty, nasty.

So sorry, no pictures of this catastrophe...

THEN, just to show you what a neglectful horrible mother I am, I was getting gas yesterday, stepped out of the car, shut the door and realized I had LOCKED THE KIDS IN THE FREAKING CAR. I smooshed my face into Corgan's window and talked him through unbuckling his seat belt. More like, yelled, banged on the window and plead with Corgan to "PUSH THE RED BUTTON!!!! NO, THE RED ONE. CORGAN! HELLO!? STOP WATCHING DORA. NO! THE RED BUTTON. DO YOU WANT ICE CREAM? YEAH? PUSH THE RED BUTTON DANG IT!" BAM BAM BAM

He finally got it and I cannot tell you how relieved I was. Seriously twenty minutes had passed. Now I'm a little concerned that Corgan's new skill will be tried out on the freeway. I'll probably be tooling down the road when I'll look next to me and see Corgan climbing up to the front seat. Hmmm.... What the heck am I going to do?!

Water Fun!

Corgan and Caiden discovered the water hose this summer! What's funny is Caiden didn't like Corgan to spray him with the water hose, but apparently didn't mind getting wet on his own terms...

First Day of School

So yeah. School's been in session for what? Two months now? And I'm just NOW getting first day of school pics posted? I am a BAD blogger. Sorry....

Ms. Ray, Corgan and Ms. Laredo. He just loves them to bits. Oh, and that's Charlie hanging out in the back...

Boy Band

Impromptu jam session with the boys....

We have Caiden on vocals, Corgan on guitar and Hudson with percussion. (Jenni is background vocals)

Corgan breaks it down with a guitar solo.

"Let's give it up for Corgan on the guitar!"

Sheesh.

Stop your crying! I'm BACK!!! Look for daily posts! I've got them all lined up and ready to roll!!! Good stuff. Great stuff. Pictures of utter cuteness. Updates on my crazy life. I'll even tell you about my black eye. How's that sound?
