Loves to Eat!!!!!!

My little Katy sure does love to eat. She will eat almost anything. The first picture is of the fun she had devouring a warm chocolate chip cookie that we had made. She was in heaven.

The next picture we went through nana's garden and found that the carrots were ready. Katy nibbled and nibbled and loved chewing on the carrot. She has her 4 front teeth and just went after that carrot. Of course, the boys were full of, "What's up docs?" while they were eatting the carrots. Glad to see they will eat straight out of the garden. I hope next year when we have our garden they will be just as enthused.

Caden's new year

Caden is loving how this new year for him is starting. He is going to preschool 2 days out of the week this year. He loves how big he is getting. And mommy loves that he has something of his own to go to. It seems we are always taking him along when we go to something for his brothers. He is so good at just coming along and staying with mommy. But he got to the point where he would cry everytime I left for a short while. His first day he wasn't sure of he wanted to go. He said that he didn't want to go until he was 4. Took some coaxing, but now he loves it and says, "see ya, mom" when he gets out of the van.

Caden also had his 4th birthday yesterday. We celebrated with family on Sunday, and then celebrated Monday with Jake. He was very spoiled and loved. We love being in Boise where we can do things like this with family. He had a great birthday. It was exciting for him to realize that he actually was 4. We have been telling him for weeks that he was almost 4. Now he can actually say he is 4. Happy Birthday Caden!!!!!

What do you think?

Ok, I am curious to get feedback on this addition of our blog. So please feel free to express your opinion on how you feel or what you think. Maybe this will all help you to understand why Jake does not sit home and watch the kids alone, hardly ever. A week before school started I went shopping with my mother, it was nice to get out of the house for a change. When I got home I had a surprise waiting for me. Under the covers of my bed, 2 heads popped out and said surprise. Needless to say as you can see from the picture, they had mohawks. I didn't know whether to laugh at what they looked like, or be totally angry with Jake. I had just given them all haircuts to look nice for school. Needless to say it was a little bit of both. I told them that they could keep their hair until Saturday and then we would have to shave it because I would not let them have mohawks at church. Kyle didn't realize that in order to get rid of it we would have to shave him completely. He wasn't very happy about that. He didn't want his friends to laugh at him. Luckily his hair grows really fast and he could already use another hair cut.

Needless to say, if I ever leave the kids with Jake alone again, I will take the clippers with me.
