Narlins & Florida!

So Andy and I had the chance to go back to where he served his mission. New Orleans! It was a really good opportunity to meet some of the people he taught and to hear him speak Spanish with the members there! We ate at some AMAZING places...I lost 15 lbs before we went...and seriously gained all of it back! Terrible I know!

We also went to Florida for a couple days! It was so fun...being in the gulf and the water about 85 degrees...amazing!

And for those of you that read my blog a few weeks ago! I am doing lots better! Thanks for all of the positive comments and phone calls! I can't help but be so grateful for all of the wonderful people in my life! Test so far are showing good results! So we remain optimistic!

Cooking Class-Learning to cook local food! So good!

Yep thats a baby Aligator I am holding...if you're wondering!

And we Saw lots of BIG Aligators too!

Out Takes!

Kaden while eating his microwaved Chicken nuggets says"mmm dis is delicious"-Oct 2009-2 years old

Christmas morning walking down the stairs and he sees the train Santa brought him his words exactally "Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, a train, a train..."-Dec 25 2009-

While laying on the bed with his good friend Avery(7 months), she starts to scream a little bit and he rolls over....looks at me with his forhead scrunched and says in a very serious voice "Avery no screaming, no screaming." Can you tell that is something we say to him often...yes, yes it is. Jan 15 2010

As I am giving Kaden his much needed Tylenol he spits all of the beautiful RED dye on his new WHITE shirt! In absolute frustration I Yell...."Come on Kaden don't spit it out, you know how to take this medicine....HOW OLD ARE YOU? Your old enough to do this" He looks up at me with his sweet blue eyes...and says "I'm two!" ~Case closed...what a stupid question mom!

On the morning of his surgery to get tubes in his ears I quietly walk into his room, rub his back and tell him it's time to get up! It's 5:45am and I am ready for him to have a tantrum...being to so tired and all.
He looks right up and me and says "Okay mommy...time to go to the Dr." Funny thing...I never said ANYTHING...about going to the dr. Not even the night before. With all of the ear trouble he has had he hates the dr. But I think someone was looking out for him! "May 11, 2010"
