Back to School!!






Hi All,

So much has happened since I last blogged. I will try and hit most of the important things. One day last week we bought Kaden a potty to get him used to and he went pee pee in his 2nd attempt!!!! I was so happy! But needless to say he was not went since. We are not being aggressive about it at this point just asking him every now and then if he wants to go. He usually says yes and will sit down, get up run around, sit down... you get the drift! He has suckers waiting for him if he ever uses it again! We will see what Dr. Hood says at our 2 year check up about when we need to get really going.
Well school started last Wednesday, we can't believe Rachel is in 8th grade!! She didn't get on a "team" with a lot of her friends but I think he likes all of her teachers pretty well. She did get all advanced classes this year so we were really proud of that.
Last Sunday our cousins, Trey and Griffin, came to spend the night. Kaden loves them and they love to play with him. Monday morning, I took them and Rachel to see the Cincinnati Bengals at training camp in Georgetown. It was really cool to see a NFL team practice and up close and personal. We got lots of great pics and some autographs too!
Well I few weeks ago, I decided I wanted to have a yard sale... wow what a lot of work it was! We had it this past Friday and Saturday. Ashton really helped me soooo much! Candy and my neighbor, Tami brought stuff to sell as well. Ken and I ended up making close to $400 dollars! Not too shabby for getting rid of a lot of junk!! We sold our trampoline and are hoping to get a pool soon! We have one that is being given to us, we just have to move it and get it put in! Thanks Candy and Thomas!!!! Kaden loves all the goodies his late cousin Thomas gives him! Too bad they never got to meet!
Well now it's Sunday and tomorrow we are all back to work and school. We are getting geared up for Kaden's 2nd birthday in a few weeks and for football season! Kaden is perfecting his "Go Cats" and his touchdown signal!!! Here are a few new pictures of potty time, the 1st Day of school and the Bengals camp! Oh and Kaden's 1st painting experience too! Enjoy!

XOXO,

Rainy Day....





Hello All,

We hope you are all safe and sound after the crazy rounds of storms today. I think Louisville got hit pretty hard! We were stuck inside all day and it went great. Kaden slept through the strongest storms, that kid could sleep through anything! We just finished eating pizza and he managed to eat a piece and a half! He loves pisza!
Last weekend we went to my grandparents in Campbellsville to celebrate my Granny's retirement. We had a blast! I think she was quite surprised! I will attach pics. We hope she will be able to come and visit us more now.
I can't believe school starts next week, the summer has flown by. Rachel finds out her classes tomorrow night. Hopefully she gets on the "Team" with some of her friends.
Kaden will be 23 months old tomorrow, I can't believe it. Ken and I were just talking about how old he is getting and how he has grown so fast! I have been making a list of words he can say for his 2 year old page in his baby book, and he can say close to 100!!! Some of my favorites are of course Mommy, but also Bless Ya, Please, hi, hey, miss you... I could go on and on! He did hear it thundering earlier looked at me and said, "Choo Choo"?! We will be planning his party soon!
We have a busy weekend planned. Ken has to work :( and Rachel will be at her Mom's but Kaden and I have a lot planned. Saturday morning we are going to Mt. Washington and I am going to attempt to plan in my Alumni Soccer game, then we may get to see Maggie play golf in Shelbyville, then back home for our cul-de-sac cook out! Sunday we are hopefully going to see our cousins Trey and Griffin play baseball in Frankfort. They may come back to our house and stay with us, we hope so!
I am attempting to have my first yard sale the 15th so I have been cleaning out things. We have too much junk.. enough to fill up a storage unit. We are hoping to clean it out and save the money. We are selling a trampoline, treadmill, home gym and really whatever else I can find!
Hope all is well with you and yours!

XOXO,
