Caden's World

Last week - mom tells Caden "no" about something, who knows what...

Caden: "You're mean mom."

Mom: "Sorry" (or I sure am, or something like that)

Caden: "I'm going to run away."

Mom: "Well, we're going to miss you."

Caden: "When you run away does the mommy drive you to where you want to go or do you have to walk?"

Mom: "You have to walk."

Caden: "Oh."

Mom: "If you run away you can run away to John and Sam's (our neighbors 2 doors up) and then I'll know where you are."

Caden: "OK"


Caden, today on the way to soccer...

Caden: "My girlfriend is on my soccer team, she's 5."

Mom: "Oh, what's her name?"

Caden: "Well, there are two Zoeys."

Mom: "Oh, so there is a girl named Zoey on your team and she's your girlfriend. Why is she your girlfriend?"

Caden: "Because I think she has cool toys. Even she has Barbies, and that's cool, I like Barbies."

What???

Saturday, Easter Eve, 6 pm

Caden: "Mom, is the Easter Bunny going to leave eggs filled with candy outside for us to find?"

Mom: "What?!?, I don't know, why do you ask?"

Caden: "Last year the Easter Bunny left eggs for us to find."

Mom: (crap) "Wow, Caden, you're right. The E.B. sure did."

Caden: "So will the E.B. leave eggs?"

Mom: "Don't know, we'll just have to see."

Mom, loudly: "Hey Bill...can you run to CVS for me?"

5 minutes later...

Caden: "I can't wait for the clothes the E.B. is going to leave in my basket."

Mom: (again, crap) "What clothes are those?"

Caden: "You know, the E.B. will put whatever I want in my basket and I want clothes, toys and candy."

Mom: "Well, we'll just have to see what the E.B. can fit in your basket."

(I guess 2 out of 3 isn't bad...)

8 Weeks Old

The 8 week old twins with big sis and big bro. Claire likes to hold the babies on mom's nursing pillow and of course then Caden must do it too.

Happy 4th Birthday, Caden!

Caden then...
