Early Halloween

This past Thursday I found an adorable shaggy dog costume at the church in Taneytown for only .50 cents! Ashton was anxious to try it on Kaden. He loved it, and refused to take it off!

Such a cute shaggy dog!

One of the best things about this Shaggy Dog, he likes to help with the cleaning!

Take me to school!

Each school day morning Kaden and I watch for the bus together. As it drives off with Ashton, Avery, Bryson and Kenzie on board we say goodbye and wave. Often times Kaden will fuss or cry as the children leave. Yesterday Ashton was trying to find ways to take Kaden along with her, and discovered he fits nicely into her backpack!

Are we ready for this?

Two weeks ago I bought Kaden a potty. Earlier in the week I put it together and placed it in the bathroom. Soon afterward he brought it out into the dinning room saying, "Potty! Potty!" He just had to try it out! Within a minutes time there was a small bowel movement in the potty! He sat a little longer and also urinated! At this point I left the room, turned my back for a minute and returned to find him still sitting on the potty, but with another small bowel movement on the floor! I placed it in his potty, because that's where bowel movements go! (Yes Shelley and Angie, I used a tissue this time! LOL!)

David Letterman and I now have something in common, we're both trying to potty train our sons! I know this is only the beginning, but I think we're off to a good start!

Another day, another hike

Our hike Sunday morning was absolutely beautiful! Unfortunately, my memory card had a malfunction! Another family hiked in the trail behind us and we ended up taking pictures with each other's cameras of our families. I saw the picture she took, but can't get to it now. I took several more pictures that I can't get to. My camera said, "memory card error". I don't know what that means or what happened, and my computer smart husband hasn't had time to look into it for me yet. I may have to buy a new memory card. That's fine, but I'd sure like to have my missing pictures! Oh well, good excuse to go back and re-hike the same trail!

Boy, would I like to have this brotherly love in my home 24/7! Guess I'll just have to take it when it comes and enjoy the moment!
