My NuggleBug

Today as I was going about my busy afternoon of submitting Credentialing paperwork and billing, I got Caiden ready for his nap here in the office. I laid out his bed and got him his blanket and set him down with some water. He immediately popped up and said Momma, nuggle????? I had to stop then and there and decide what to do, get my desk cleared for the day or snuggle with my best boy. The decision should have been quick but I did think for a sec and of course agreed to snuggle. So I sat down on the little fold-out couch with Caiden and dee-dee (blankie), bear, Meen (lambie), his cup, ball and anything else he could have wanted in order to nuggle. We sat and watched part of Ratatouille and all the while I was thinking okay any minute now he'll crash. No luck! I suddenly got a little finger pointing at the owie (zit) on my face and a need for tied shoelaces, and a kiss, and a fly kiss (butterfly kiss). He did eventually crash but in the end unlike so many other times, that was not the best part. The best part was that I got to nuggle with my best boy. I can't believe how big Caid has gotten in such a short period of time. I am taking all the nuggle I can get!!!!!

Doing the pee pee dance!!

He pee-peed in the pot-tay! Pee-peed in the pot-tay!

We have recently added new fixtures in our bathrooms at the house and Caiden has been interested. He asks to go and we get him to the bathroom, get him all ready(which means completely undressing him, someone told him you pee totally naked), to find out he meant he already went. Fast forward to last week about three minutes before we all danced, jumped and cheered like a bunch of crazies.....

Mike was sitting Caiden in time-out for something he had done, when in tears, Caiden said he had to go potty. Mike, nicer than I said okay (I would have assumed he just wanted out of time-out), and took him to the bathroom. Mike got him totally into nude dude mode and sat him down. He walked away as Caiden began to sing to himself and then went back a few seconds later to find that he had in fact gone. He pee-peed on the pot-tay! Pee-peed on the pot-tay! He got a big Sees lollipop! We partied, danced, sang, and acted like the crazy people we are.

Fast forward to Saturday......He did it again!!!! My boy is getting so big and makes me prouder and prouder every day!!!

Yay, the idea of having only one in diapers at a time MIGHT be feasible.

The Easter Bun

The Easter Bun (as Caid called him) came to both our house and the church on Easter. We collected all the candy and treats we could and then had brunch with Mama, Papa and Uncle T (Aunt Marci got roped into working for someone) . It was such a fun day with Caid.

One of the biggest highlights was getting to see Uncle T's new bike.
