ON CLOUD 9

Look at little Caden Jace flexing his muscles, this is right before we went to take the kids fishing and the twins each caught their own fish! And if I could ever figure out how to get pictures from my trusty phone to my computer, then I could show you, but for now the before and afters will have to do!
After bath he did some cute posing. Yesterday Caden was so excited when I picked him up from school, he told me that he got to go in the treasure box because he did a great job at lunch! He also sang me 2 songs from class, it was hilarious and so cute. His clean up song was my favorite!
I also got an e mail from the teacher telling me of his good day and about a new gold coin system they are implementing to motivate the kids to reach goals, so exciting! Now Mom's you know when you get that good note from a teacher it can turn your whole day and mood around, those are great days!
I do have a swim suit on here people! Caden will also get to do a really cool gymnastics program that is different from the typical class at a gym, but the best part is, that the twins will get to do it TOGETHER at Camen's school once a week! I am so excited about this!
Keep up the good work Caden, the possibilities truly are endless, for you and all my kiddos!

NEW PHOTOGRAPHER

A girl in my Mother's of Multiples group named Stephanie recently started her own photography business and had an opening special to work on building her portfolio........so since I can't pass on a great deal we went out a couple of weeks ago and got a few shots of Ms Cashlen. If you want to see a few until I get the rest go to her blog at www.stephanieguinn.blogspot.com She is so sweet and great with babies and multiples, or busy little ones in general! She gets some great shots too and she is one of those people who you can just tell is one of the best mom's!

CAMEN AND CASHLEN'S FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL........

was today! The morning started off with only 40 minutes to spare........to dress 3 little ones, pack 3 lunches, do breakfast that not one of them decided to eat, (what's that) brush lots of teeth, take pictures and then last but not least, get myself somewhat ready! I was freaking out, I had not even had my giant cup of coffee, ahhhhh! Caden was so excited that the other 2 had their backpacks ready and were all dressed for school. And Camen and Cashy were super happy to finally be going as well!
Daddy and Cashlen, tiny tiny baby- 19 months, thinks she is a 4 year old triplet!
Camen Jude and Daddy, he has really hit a HUGE growth spurt! Caden is starting to look smaller and smaller, I am sure he will hit his soon =)
Caden Jace and Daddy O! He is doing AWESOME at school!
Baby Girl again!
Awwwww, don't you just love her "Hungry Little Caterpillar" dress, I do! It was the perfect 1st day dress.
My front seat minus Caden's stuff. Maybe I need to allow myself a little more than 2 hours to complete my morning missions! I put his stuff right below his feet since the teachers take him out of a carpool line, it just makes it faster and easier.
Walking into his first day, at a new school, such a big boy, sniff sniff~
And don't forget, little Cashy got her stuff in all by herself!
Me and some of my babies!
Starting a new adventure.....
and happy to be doing so!
And here is the point that I almost lost it, right before I let him walk into the "jungle," or the 4 year old pre k class. I was not sad when I dropped Cashlen, but with Camen and Caden I was. I think it's cause I realize they have gotten sooooo big. Doesn't he look handsome!
After dropping kids and running a couple errands I finally got to go meet Miss Addison Leigh! She is so sweet and she likes me too! I can't wait til she gets big so the kids can all play.
Lindsay Lakes.....check it out, we just remodeled and it is beyond amazing. You must see it in person, we added a whole new lighting system and knocked out a whole wall to open it up. I will add some videos of the kids dancing there from today after school so you can get the idea. Getting married? Need a place for an event, party or special occasion above the rest? Lindsay Lakes is the place for you! www.lindsaylakes.com
Pop, Cashy and Camen....they were so happy to see Bebe and Pop today since they are finally back from vaca! Today was exhausting but very exciting, I will have to get used to the new normal, yay for a great year for great changes!

CASHLEN AND BLAIR PLAYDATE

Cashy loves to talk on the phone, if I am on it she is screaming to talk, if I am eating she has to have it too, same with drinking, she will scream whatever she wants over and over and over. She is talking to Jil above.
Hey Jil, are you there?
HELLLLOOOOOOO!!!!!
Then in the evening time Baby Blair came to eat and play. First we fed the deer~
Then we went on the swings!
Blair is alllllll boy and loves to play, play play!
Cashy is thinking, dude, what is sooo funny?
Weeeee, swings, I love swings!
2 little cuties sittin' in a tree

and playing house is fun too!
Blair, I have a sneaky idea, come on.........
I am going to go and sit in the toilet bowl until someone finds me, shhhhhh!
Nice and comfy!
Her croc fell off and that is when she realized how much dirt she had from outside on her foot.....
She said, "towel, clean!" So girly, and surprisingly, she didn't even get wet sitting in there!
Blair, I love you, let me take care of you.......we tried to get Blair to accept her kisses, but he never would slow down enough for this to happen!
Listen, this is my house and my bath, you can't play with my monster toy because I use it as a cup to drink this nasty bubble bath water, ok!
And the fight was on!

I GOT A CAMERA! WHOOO HOOOOO!

Yesterday after Cashy and I dropped Caden Jace off at school, I went to pick up my new camera! I am not totally used to it yet but I love it sooo much! Then we went to pick up Camen from Jil's and he had a blast at Jil's house. They had a treasure hunt, with gold coins and pirate goodies! What fun!
My camera takes really good pics that don't really need editing but I like to mess around and tweek stuff, I am no professional though, it's just fun!
In the one above I faded the color out a bit. She insisted upon wearing tennis shoes since Bubba Caden was too.

Cashy has been telling me when her diapers in dirty, but has been really scared of the potty. I have not pushed anything, she is young and I am busy! But yesterday she wanted to sit on the potty, so I let her, she thought it was funny and kept saying pee pee, pee pee!
Look how far her feet are from the ground, 19 months~
Caden missed him some Camen Jude, they were happy to reunite and play super heroes together.

Last night we played outside a bit and just hung out. These pics are just me playing with my camera and getting used to it.
Camen Jude and Daddy- good picture
Oh no Daddy the sprinkler is getting us!
Lovin' him some Boots
And a note that came home from school this week from Caden, I never would have guessed, lol! He is coming along great in school and adjusting to his new school and routine! I love where were at and am so proud of him for taking these changes so well so far. Each kid was asked what they liked about being a Dragonfly (their class name): one kid said he liked Caden, so sweet! And Caden said "dragonflies fly!" Okay, maybe when he is more acclimated with the school and class he will have a more detailed and concrete answer, but for now, I like that answer. He is liking his teachers and they loving him! Camen and Cash start Monday and I start work PT, I hope we like the new school that Camen and Cash have too! We are off to get ready, go see Aunt Man's new baby, get Camen his backpack and go swim for a bit~
