Caden and Mommy Visit the Park

It's that time of the year for Mommy to work nights again. I have every Saturday morning off with Caden alone. I'm usually lacking sleep and try to entertain for 4-5 until my mom can watch him so I can nap.

Last Saturday I took him to the park. I was really excited because they have a brand new state of the art playground there. He played on the playground for like 10 minutes and then ran off.

He would rather wander around and chase the ducks. Those poor ducks, he would not leave them alone. Next time, I will have to take a better camera with me. These pictures were taken with my cellphone.

Potty Training

At the beginning of September, Caden's teachers approached me and wanted to have a meeting. They told me that we need to get rid of the pull-ups and put Caden in big boy underwear. I agreed.

So the next day, we put him in underwear. He's been doing pretty good. He's had some accidents here and there, mostly with #2. The kid always forgets to tell someone that he needs to poop.

He has only worn diapers and/or pull-ups for bedtime the past month. Sometimes he gets lazy and pees in the middle of the night. We understand, he's a sound sleeper.

He's holding out on going poop in the potty, but we will live with that. Every day is touch and go. Hopefully soon we will say that he is completely trained. I would say that he is about 75% trained.

YAY Caden!

Watermelon Day

A couple of weeks ago, they had a "Watermelon Day" at Caden's school. This occurred after school. They had some decorate watermelon's and all the kids we were little watermelons around their necks. They have watermelon on a stick for everyone to snack on. Here are some pictures of Caden and his buddies from school.

Caden in Stacey's Office

Caden goes to The Little Gym every Monday night. Sometimes we get there a little early and just let him run around and play. He usually finds his way into Stacey's office. Stacey found him in her office one day playing with the Post-It notes. He loves them.

Catalogs

Caden has a new favorite pastime of looking at catalogs. They are mostly toys and children's things. While he's looking at them, he says, "Mama I NEED this, Daddy NEED this." It's quite funny. He's been especially obsessed with the Halloween items. He can't make-up his mind on what he's going to be.

Unfortunately this year, we can't just buy him an ole' costume. He's very particular and has to chose it himself. "I do it myself!".

I asked him to try on some clothes for this picture. He decided to put this outfit together. I tried to tell him that it doesn't match.

Long time, no blog

We've been really busy with summer, working, and preschool. I will have to post some updates to Caden's blog.

I also changed the design on it. Hopefully, everyone will like it!!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Caden Updates

Caden is doing great in his class at The Little Gym. Stacey is now one of his teachers. She has alot of patience. I know I couldn't do it. We've been taking Caden every Monday night. Sometimes we have good days, sometimes we have bad days.

About two weeks ago, Caden moved up in his preschool class. He's now in the 3-4 year old room. He's slowly adjusting to life with the big kids.

They have been doing water play in the afternoons. Of course, Caden loves it. He comes home soaking wet every day.

We went to Disneyland for two days last week. We actually stayed in a hotel this time. I will include some pictures in my next post.

Spring Semester at The Little Gym

Caden has been attending gymnastics classes at Stacey's, "The Little Gym" recently. We take him there every Monday night after school. He really likes it. He gets to climb, jump, and run around for an hour. Most of the time, he actually pays attention.

He was very happy this night, because his best friend, Stella, was there. This was also the last night of the Spring class. He got a medal for completing the class. YAY Caden!

Joyous Times at Disneyland in June

Great Nana and Great Papa Visit

Mike's Grandparents came to visit us last weekend. Caden had a great time with his Great Papa and Great Nana. We went to the Aquarium. Of course, I only get Caden in the pictures and not them. Hopefully, they got better pics than I did.

Some Recent Artwork

I cleaned out Caden's folder at school the other day. Here are some pictures of Caden's recent artwork.
