A Day with Mommy!

Matt was out of town this weekend, so Caden and I went to Breakfast downtown, and then to Dow Gardens! He played in the sandbox, (which he loved, so I'm thinking that we are going shopping after his nap). He also splashed around in the stream, but there's no pictures of that, I was just trying to make sure he didn't get soaked, or fall in headfirst. :-) We had a great day!

Caden and Tulips

Matt went to the Red Wings game tonight so Caden and I went to Dow Gardens to play in the tulips!

April Playdate at Maddie's House

We visited Maddie's house for the April Playdate...and we welcomed our newest members...Ginny....and ....Ginny! Yes, there are two adorable little girls named Ginny. :-)

This is a lot harder now that they are all mobile!

Buford and Mindy's Prom

Caden isn't in any of these pictures....why? Because we hired our FIRST babysitter and went out to party! It went really well. Our babysitter, Maddie, is 13 and she did a wonderful job with Caden! He didn't even notice we were gone and went to sleep for her just fine!

So...while he was sleeping...Mom and Dad were reliving thier high school days at PROM! That's right, our going away party for Mindy and Buford was turned into a Prom. Complete with trellis pictures, a DJ, Prom King and Queen and lots of fun. Here are some pictures.

In case you were wondering, yes, that is my H. S. Prom dress. I should scan in Matt and my prom picture from 1998....we look a little different now! :-)

We will miss you Mindy, Buford, and Penelope!!

Visit with Jen and Arin in Erie

Before we headed down south to see the grandparents, we visited Jen and Arin in Erie! Caden had lots of fun catching up with his buddies - Austen, Eli and Naomi. The kids are all getting so big!

Trip to PA

Caden went back to PA for the first time since Christmas! It's hard to believe it's been that long! We had a great time and the weather was beautiful! Matt stayed in Erie for a hockey tournament and Caden and I drove the rest of the way home to see the Grandparents. Matt's team ended up winning the championship.

While Dad was playing hockey, Caden was playing outside in the yard. Here's a few pictures from our trip!

Making a break for it!
