First, came Cayden.
Our honey-moon surprise, first born, awesome and easy baby.

There are not enough words to describe this kid. I am just head over heels for him. He is hilarious, super smart and respectful, caring, and onery. He is ambitious and is still a Mama's boy.

We survived the two's and three's and now I believe four will be our reward (optimistic, I am!!). He couldn't be more thrilled to be four. He keeps asking me if I'm sad that he's four. No buddy, but you can't ever turn FIVE. He got the flu for his birthday this year. He is always blessed with germs on holidays. Luckily, it doesn't hold him back much and he'll be on the mend soon.
Happy 4th Birthday my sweet Cay Bug :)

October 2nd, 2010.

October is a very emotional month for me. My kiddos birthdays are very bittersweet! I wish I could just bottle them up and keep them this age forever. I am just having a blast with them! We'll start with Asher, because his birthday came first this month.

Feels like just yesterday. I thought I had a stomach ache, turns out I was in labor. It was really tough having a baby without my husband by my side. Those four days in the hospital were extremely lonely, I was the only Mom in L&D who didn't have a husband to help me. Not to say, I wasn't ecstatic that I had a new baby boy to love on.

Asher has definitely given me a run for my money! He is very dependent, but is a complete people person. He LOVES to be around anyone, making them smile. He is so smart and has a long attention span. He is a great eater, he just decided at 12 months old he is done nursing. He is my little peanut! I am used to having my kid be off the chart huge, but I just love that Ash is still itty bitty to hold in my arms. I cannot imagine my life without him, he was definitely a missing puzzle piece in our family. Happy first Birthday, Cubby!!! <3
