Santa according to Caden

In case you need to know, according to Caden, Santa keep his cell phone under his hat or in his boots. Don't you love the way children think?!? :)

Caden's questions

I share with you the deep, thought provoking questions Caden asked me this afternoon as we were driving home.

1) "Mommy, do you think the Sun has a blankie when he goes to sleep?"
2) "Where's the Sun's bed?"
3) "Why don't the stars and sun and moon have eyes and faces?"

If you have answers beyond
1) Yes, I bet so and he probbaly has a teddy bear to snuggle with too.
2) I'm not sure. I've never been to the Sun's house.
3) God didn't make them that way.

Please let us know.

sigh of relief

At Caden's 4 year well child check, his pediatrician recommended we take Caden to a pediatric gastroenterologist at Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City because she was concerned that the hole in his back he was born with might be interfering with the sensation to have a bowel movement. He has never been able to tell us when has to poop. That is until this evening. As we were getting ready for his bath, Caden told me he had to poop and then he did so in the toilet!! A first mini sigh of relief for Doug and me. Maybe, just maybe, this means we won't have to see the specialist in KC in January.

in case you wanted to know . . .

According to Caden . . ."Pink piggies can't dive cars."

Big 12 Champs

Tim and I (Doug) drove to KC yesterday to watch the Sooners claim another Big 12 Championship. Of course I'm thrilled that the Sooners will be playing Florida for a chance a national title. Here are just a few of the 73 photos I took at the game last night.

Caden quotables

When Caden tastes something he doesn't like (especially toothpaste), "That's tasty!" I think he means nasty, but it's so funny to hear him say tasty when his face is all wrinkled up in disgust.

Tonight during his bath, "Mommy, my juice is going to melt."

After a not so delicious dinner at the new Chinese restaurant in town, "Umm, that was a gooood dinner!" Doug and I beg to differ.
