Kaden's First Shaving Nick

Yes... I was a bad mom. I left out a razor, and for a split second he was out of my sight and tried to "shave" like Dada :)
So.. now if we call get over the fact that my son was in danger with a razor and I failed to catch it all it time... the story is really funny :P

Before and After Kaden's Surgery

I don't know how much weight Kaden has gained after his surgery... but I can tell he has. Keep in mind that he lost some in the 2 week recovery as well... so he is doing great! Just compare his face :)
Sequence of photo's is before, after, and then before again.

Little Pool Fun Jun 09

Heat index that day got up to 107 - there was nothing else to do.. and these pictures were taken at like 9:30 am. And it was hot then :) No.. I didnt' have the kids out in the 107, later that day.. we stayed inside :) Painting pictures.

All these photo's are of the little ones (Kyler, Mason, & Jadyn). Kaden is in a different class.
But.. they have fun.

Kaden's Surgery May 28, 09

Ok... I'm not going to lie. This was / is very hard. The 2 hours after the surgery in recovery were just awful. He was in sooo much pain, and the pain meds made him so sleepy that his oxygen stats were falling to far down, so we would have to wake him up and that scared him, and the crying would start all over again. Once he figured out that popsciles felt good, that was a good start to going home. We got home about noon. Yesterday he ate 9 popsciles, 1 bowl of pudding, 1 milkshake, and a few sips of gatorade. Last night was a tough one. We had to do a medicine of come kind every 2 hours... waking him up to swallow was just pure torture. But, this morning he actually wants to play... However he has to play on the futon, no running around. And he is on is 3 popscile already, after 1/2 a bowl of pudding and 1/2 bowl of applesauce. The drinking thing is still hard to get him to do... but that is why we are pushing the popsciles.
Winston is never far away. He seems very worried about Kaden, especially when he is crying. Kyler wants so bad to help his big brother...that and he doesn't understand why Kaden gets to eat treats and he has to eat real food.

Here are few pics.
They say day 5 is one of the worst so remember us on Monday :(

Memorial Day 09

Well it was a great 4 days. We left Thursday night right after Matt got home from work. We went to the Ramariz's home and met up with the Fergusons. 3 college / lifelong friends and their families...7 kids...3 Mom's...2 dogs...2 goats...and countless fun. Here are a few pics. They also drove a go-cart, spend a day at the lake (where Matt and I got burnt - but the boys did not). We ate like king's - John is a wonderful cook and I even won $180 dollars at a casino on "girls night". We had a blast.
We did have to leave sooner than planned on Monday morning becuase the kids shared - like kids do and several were coming down with strep throat - including Kaden. Last night he had a very high fever and does not feel good at all. But.. his surgery is on Thursday and hopefully that will still go well.
Just thought I would share :)

There have been a few times were I look around and think were did the kids go? It's only ben 30 sec. But... this is usually where I find them.

Eat up little brother :)
