Cade is 4

Well technically not until the 12th, but we celebrated on Saturday.
We had a Toy Story/Buzz Lightyear party and he loved it.
I can't believe my lil boy is 4. 
I never understood other mom's getting sad over their children growing up,
but this birthday really hit me.
I was an emotional wreck.
He was my first baby, my first everything, 
and suddenly he doesn't need me so much.
He so grown up he can handle it on his own.
And suddenly I'm wrapped up with a newborn also.
Where has the time gone??

someone's excited for their party!!


Garris got all dressed up for the par-tay!

Olive, love those eyes

sugar high

make a wish!
As I think back over the past 4 years, I'm feel so relieved.
I sometimes can't even believe Cade has ACC (agensis of the corpus callosum)
He seems so unaffected by this.
How blessed we truly are.
Sure there may be times where there will be bumps in the road
But we are just so relieved that he has led a very happy and "normal" lil man life.
We are excited for him to start preschool in the fall and learn the ins and outs of school schedules,
and to make new friends too.  He's such a shy, caring, loveable and thoughtful lil boy,
we couldn't have asked for a better person to be in our lives.
He has taught us so much and our lives would not be complete without him!
XO Cade we love you!

what a wonderful world!


This year I got to celebrate Mother's Day as a mom to 2 boys!
I feel so blessed to have this day also spending the weekend with my Mom.
I love you mom, Thank you for showing me the way to being a mother!
I know what it means to love unconditionally and selflessly.  My kids are my world, and I get it now.
XO

Cade ran inside today and handed these to me and Nana screaming, "happy Mother's Day"
Such a sweet boy!


I'm loving my new insta canvas. 
walgreens has such cheap prints for insta





These two dreams are napping while I have a moment to myself today


Nana and I got my annuals planted this weekend too


While Miss Mia watched guard


I'm so bummed I had a great photo of me and Mom and it got deleted from my Camera before I got it uploaded.  Lesson learned.
Happy Mother's day to all the lovely mothers out there!


Cheers, Carri

A day at the museum

Playing catch up here as the boys nap!
I forgot about our fun trip to the new Fort Collins Childrens musem before Garris arrived.
Cade loved it! This was the week prior to Garris being born








Cheers, Carri

A day at the zoo

Last week we took advantage of he lovely weather and headed to the Denver zoo with the boys and their grandparents.
I feel so blessed to have such amazing grandparents for the kids to grow up around, and see so often.
We had a lovely day and spent the entire day there.














Cheers, Carri
