Harper's 4th Birthday party

Cade got invited to a birthday party that took place at "The Little Gym". This was our first experience with this kind of place. Cade loved it but didn't exactly want to follow along with with everyone else was doing. Here are pictures from that day. Enjoy!


Below are Cade and Elle playing on the same equipment. They didn't talk to each other but didn't seem to mind the other being there too. :)





In the picture to the right, notice all of the other kids are leaning up against the wall hiding their eyes... not Cade! He's playing!

























This one is by far my FAVORITE!! The teacher had no idea Cade was sitting back there. How hilarious is this?!!








In all fairness, Cade was the only one around his age. They were all a year or more older or much smaller.











Cade spent the most time running back and forth on this part of the equipment.









Oh, and not sure what I did to get the pics all over the place like this. Obviously I wasn't paying attention when I uploaded them! And I certainly aren't going to delete and start over!










And at one point in time he decided to go play in the lobby! I couldn't believe he did that! It worked out though, that gave me a chance to feed Dylan.









Here is the birthday boy, Harper... notice Cade on the right side? Watching Harper peaked his interest in this group activity.








Cade says sign me up!!

And off he went! He Loved it! This was the last activity before cake and ice cream of the course the pinata!

Here is Elle taking pretty good swings!

Cade got his shot too! Only he gave little love taps... everyone thought that was really cute. I was surprised he didn't try and hit it as hard as he tries to hit us with his bats at home!

And once the pinata busted open, I had to tell Cade to go pick up the candy and toys! He had a great time!! That was a great birthday party!
And of course I couldn't not post a pic of Dylan. She was there also, I just didn't get any pics!

Memorial Weekend Pictures!

Okay, here are the pictures everyone has been asking me about... the photos from our trip to North Carolina to visit with the Villanos and Hildebrandts!! Due to the sick kiddo, we didn't get as many pictures as we normally would have. But enjoy!

Ethan says... more chocolate please!

Ethan and Cade hanging out by the kiddie pool.

Cade got a little wet and decided to sit down for awhile. Not sure why these pictures look so bright. The camera must have been set on something wrong.

Me and Dylan... I know, I don't post too many pictures of myself!

Here's Chris hanging out... sorry we didn't get any pictures of Melissa this trip!

Katarina and Conner Hildebrandt... is this too cute or what?!!

just hanging out in the playroom

I think Katarina would like a baby sister... hint hint!! :)

The kids had a good time playing with Oliver the dog!

Here's Cade playing Rock Band... and he Jim did a duet! Sorry, we didn't get any pictures of Heather this trip either!

Cade also tried his hand at playing the guitar!

It was SO cute watching Connor on the drums and Cade on the guitar!!

Is this hilarious or what? Conner did a GREAT job of hitting the right color!
Hopefully next year everyone will be healthy and we'll really be able to have a relaxing weekend!
