So I've realized that Time Flies. Really.
I haven't posted at all since we made our big move in April. So I decided to sit down and get it done! There's lots that has gone on since we moved, and it would take a book to tell it all in words, so I'll post pictures of our last four months instead!
The last day of March, we arrived at our new home in Venedocia, OH. You can see it in the eyes of my boys that this was a move that was going to make them both very happy! We pulled up to the house in the moving truck- Cayden climbed up with Daddy and took a look at our new land with his binoculars!
We quickly settled in and on day 2 we got Cayden a bunny to play with in our new back yard...He LOVED him! He named his new friend RUDY!
Cyle has been working really hard at getting his new business going. He is working with Big Tom, as usual, and doing pretty well so far! Cayden loves to relax with the two of them when they get home from a hard days work!
We have had friends over to play, which Cayden absolutely LOVES! He loves to show everybody his new room and run like crazy in the yard. We invited Jackie, Mark and their girlies over for some kid and parent fun! We all had a great time. The kids were sweaty from running around, and the house was a mess...but SO worth it :-)
Cayden and Hadley have a special bond!
Cyle and Cayden planted tomato plants, peppers and lettuce...and Cayden has been such a good helper watering them every day!
Once the weather started improving, Daddy bought Cayden a bright yellow Volkswagon Bug car from a friend for pretty cheap. We thought this would be perfect for him in the yard - there's lots of space to cruise around!
Yellow just wasn't good enough though. Daddy and Cayden decided that a CAMO hunting vehicle would be SO much cooler! So Cyle made it happen...
And that made little Chump SO happy!
Mya may look scared (I would be too...Cayden is a crazy driver!), but she really does LOVE to take rides!
Since we've moved, we've been spending a ton of time playing outside. It's so nice here, set back, surrounded by trees, with a big yard to play in - we can't resist taking advantage of it! We taught Cayden how to play Tee-ball...and he picked it up so quickly! He's a natural! Look at that stance! He really whacks the ball too!
Mya takes a rest on the blanket, just taking it all in...
We've gone to the lake a few times this summer too. Cayden is really growing up, and doing a lot of new things that he wouldn't do last summer. He loves the water and really loves fishing with Dad!
My Big Guy turned 3 on July 19th. Can't even believe it. He's such a big boy now! Our babysitter had a big party for him that day, with a birthday hat, dinosaur cupcakes and even presents! She's so good to them...and Cayden had a blast! He doesn't hesitate to tell everyone he knows that he's "free" now, holding up three little fingers!
And this one. What can I say about her?! She's nutso! Mya definitely has a little mind of her own, and will do things in her own time. She's so darn cute, but has the attitude of a teenager already sometimes!! She's not crawling or walking, but sure can get around by scooting on her bottom! I think she's adjusting to this new country life pretty well too - she also loves to play outside, especially when big brother is doing something entertaining! She's quite the handful sometimes..and I've adopted the phrase "I've got one child with special needs, and one with LOTS of needs!" But I wouldn't change it for the world!
There's more to come...
