Happy Easter!

Caden had a busy Easter! We had SO much fun. we hid his basket behind the dining room door, that he loves to open and close. He really was going to play with the door, and just happened to find his Easter basket at the same time....Check out the video:








After finding his Easter Basket, we went to Easter Brunch with Scotty, Dan, Shawn, Bek, and Chris.

Caden took a big nap after the morning's fun...and then we went to Easter dinner at Mindy and Buford's! It was so much fun, and Caden and Penelope played outside before dinner, and we went to the park after dinner.


The babies on thier daddies shoulders!

Saginaw Children's Museum

This weekend, Mindy and I took Caden and Penelope to the Saginaw Zoo....wait...scratch that...the Children's Museum (after it started pouring down rain!)
We had a GREAT time and were thankful for the change in plans! We had never been to the Children's museum before, and it is someplace we will definitely go back to visit!
All of the exhibits were interactive play exhibits for kids of all ages. Mindy and I were so tired afterwards from chasing around our toddlers. (who by the way are very fast now that they know how to walk).
Enjoy the pictures!!



In the Ball Pit!


Playing with Legos!



In the Kitchen - everything was kid sized!



Caden and Penelope are ready for the road!



Peek-a-boo!



The water exhibit was the BEST! They were both wet, and Caden had to change shirts at the end of it, but the loved playing in the water.



I would say Caden wrote his own name, but I would be lying. :-) I think the streak is the start of a picture of daddy. :-)




In the maze - built out of small walls with lots of things to play with along the way.


Taking a ride in the wagon!

Field Trip with Cheryl!

Caden and I went on a field trip with Cheryl and the kids during Spring Break week last week! We went to Whiting Forest first, then to Dow Gardens to see (What else?) The butterflies!!

We had such a great time, and it was so fun to see how well the kids take care of Caden! They treat him like thier baby too. :-)


Going down the ramp!



At the Treehouse in Whiting Forest!
