Papa's Tractor

For the longest time Kaden has been scared of "Papa's Tractor". He doesn't like loud noises, he is even scared of the vacuum and so every time he would even hear it he would hide. The other day however was a different story. Arden asked him if he wanted to go for a ride and he shocked us all when he said yes. Now Papa can't leave the house without Kaden wanting to go on "Papa's Tractor" too.

Watch out here she comes...

Little Miss Maddie is walking. She is still a bit wobbly but she gets were she wants to with a big smile, she is so proud of herself.

Trunk or Treat

This year we went to Bunkerville for the trunk or treat. Kaden went as a cowboy and Maddie as a bee. I was not sure how Kaden was going to do with all the costumes because he doesn't like scary things. It didn't seem to bother him at all in fact by the time we got done he wanted to visit all the cars again. Maddie just sat in the wagon and chewed on candy wrappers. It was so fun to dress the kids up.

Maddie turns 9 months old

I can not believe how fast the time is going by. Maddie turned 9 months old yesterday. She is getting so big! She is starting to stand on her own for a couple of seconds. She is not into learning how to walk just yet which I am totally okay with, She gets around just fine.... she can crawl almost faster than I can walk. She is starting to get into everything, she empties the book shelf in nothing flat and just discovered how to open the kitchen drawers. Maddie is still a big time Momma's girl. She is always giggling and has a smile for everyone but especially her big brother. Kaden loves to pester her all the time. He does help keep an eye on her though, I know she has gotten in to something when I hear him say "WAAAAAADDIE". Maddie is such a good girl we love her lots!!!!!

Like I said she gets into everything;)

Crazy Kid

Ever since Kaden became Mobile he seriously climbs up on everything. He is such a little dare devil. He drives his four wheeler into the wall and uses it as a step. The wall is 5 1/2 feet tall and he loves to walk around it. Yikes!!


Maddie of coarse thinks he is way cool too! I put her hair in piggys for the first time... not sure I like it!?

Josh and Bailey's Wedding

I am finally posting pictures from the wedding. Somehow my camera got left home so we didnt get any pictures. Luckily Stetsy got a few of us. All in all it was a great weekend. It was so good to see family that we dont get to see very often and just have a good time. Congrats to Bailey and Josh...hopefully I can get more pictures to post later.
The reception was so much fun!

Both Kaden and Maddie loved dancing!

Swimming at Grandmas

If anyone has ever been to the ranch with kids it is almost a given that you with have to keep a close eye on them so they don't get in the ditch. Well, the other day Molly and I were visiting with Mom while the kids were having a good time playing in the front yard. Pretty soon Alice comes to the front door completely drenched. We ask her where Kaden is and she says "water". So I run out to the ditch yelling for Kaden and pretty soon I hear "Me swim Mom...Yeah!! I did it!!!" After seeing that he was okay I couldn't help but laugh however it really did scare me. We decided to since they were already wet we would let them swim for awhile and both of them loved it.
