Happy Birthday Pawcaw!!

Now... it's time for the happy dance!

First day of preschool... sort of

The kids just started to preschool again. Well, except for the fact that Caden went last year and has gone all summer... so really it was just the first day for Carinna.

Again, I have no idea why I even try to get photos!


The girl could not have been less interested in getting her picture taken!

Her shirt is all wet from brushing her teeth. It's her favorite thing to do, but it makes her drool a bit.

At least in this one they are both smiling!

Then they got distracted... so I gave up.
They both did really well in their new classes! Caden likes his new teacher, but doesn't understand why he can't go back to Mrs. Julie's class!

Catching up...again...

Back to the boy's birthday...

We had a small party here at our house with some family.

He was so excited about everything he got!
Especially Woody!


I have no idea what the deal is, but this was the grin he was giving me... could it be any cheesier?
Icing mustache...
And we discovered that the girl does in fact like cake. I guess the problem was that her birthday cake didn't have any chocolate on it!
Later in the week we went to Grandma and Pawcaw's house. They have a great bounce house place just down the street. We went with some cousins and I think they all had a blast!
Then that night there were MORE presents! He got a Jessie doll this time. We have since learned that Jessie is way better than Woody. Caden often refers to her as "his girl"!
Then we had MORE cake too! What a great birthday! (And yes, that is a candle on the cake... we forgot to get birthday candles.)
Then the next day we headed to The Greatest Show on Earth!
Notice Jack's face... he had wanted a sword... he didn't get it.

Caden and Jessie watching the show! (The girl had to stay with Grandma and Pawcaw!)
He said he was ready to go home about 10 minutes after the show started! But I think he enjoyed it overall! The rest of us sure did!
