Picture Day

I snapped these pictures of Kaden just before spring picture day. His pictures turned out really cute, but we haven't gotten them back yet. We'll send some out when we get the order.

Park & Play

There's a park that's close to home now. We've been able to enjoy it for a few months now. Kaden loves to go play there. And he loves the monkey bars. Friday, he fell off the monkey bars at school and landed on his back. Luckily he was ok. I picked him up early from school and as soon as he got in the car, he requested to play Xbox. And by the time we were home, he said, "I'm just feeling good now, can I ride my bike?" ---It's good he wasn't hurt too badly.

Our Little Monkey at the Zoo

Friday we went to the zoo. Kaden didn't have school Thursday or Friday because of Parent/Teacher conferences.

Playing on the tractor.

This pictures dark, but he was having a lot of fun running back and forth in the loft of the Zoo's barn.

Our little cowboy.

The boys had so much fun watching the polar bear.

Kaden playing in the bear cave.

"All these bears are taller than me!"

Snack time.

Spinning the big fish.

Monkey see. Monkey Do.

Kaden loved watching the bats too! He has a book that talks about bats, so it was fun to see them in real life.

Goofy Goggle Boy

We got the boys goggles that they could wear in the bath. They end up playing with them more than they wear them. But they have fun!

Kaden's Artwork & Writing

Kaden drew this picture at school. "I wint on the plene ol pi mi self."

He's very in to writing his whole name, although we need to teach him how to spell Michael.
Another picture that he drew at school. "Me and Alex and Rich playeg lago stor wrs."
He loves to play Lego Star Wars on the XBox. But he really loves to play it as make belief on the playground at school with his two best friends. One of his friends, Rich, is in a special reading group with Kaden at school. Both of them read at above grade level.

This is what Kaden wrote and drew at our Primary PJ'S Party. It was last saturday and PJ'S stood for "P"rayer, "J"ournal and "S"criptures. This is the first page of the journal he made. Notice that when he grows up he wants to be "bad." And I love the little muscle he drew!

Openning the Valentine Package

He actually opens it up about a minute into the video, I think. It's pretty cute. One of the cutest things he says is kind of hard to hear. But at some point, he says, "I got everything I wanted for Christmas!" as he was looking at the pictures. He really enjoyed looking at them.

Seaside Beach Trip - Valentine's Weekend

We went to the Seaside Aquarium and they asked if we want to buy food to feed the seals. We said, "Sure." --- I love the look on Kaden's face while he was holding the food.

At first Kaden didn't want to touch the sea anemone's, but then he got brave and went for it.

After we went to the Aquarium we went over to the Funland arcade. Kaden had a lot of fun riding on the bumper cars.

Then we went up to Astoria and went to the Mariners Museum.
