My Frisky Lil' Tiger!



My lil' tiger getting frisky right before nap time. He didn't want me to wipe his face off until Daddy came home and saw it. Too cute, we'll see how much of it is still on his face once he wakes up!

ROAR!!

The mall by our house has a 'Mommy and Me' Carnival each Monday. They have clowns with free face painting, animal balloons, magicians, and carousel rides. I found out about it a few weeks ago but forgot to go last week so today we finally made it. It was a lot of fun and you can't beat free! We rode the carousel several times and I was a little worried about me and Kalli getting sick but we survived! While standing in the face painting line Kaiden was a little freaked out by the clowns walking around which wasn't a good sign b/c the clowns are the ones that do the face painting! He seemed to get more comfortable as we waited and once it was our turn he jumped up on the chair and she painted away. Afterwards Kadien loved walking around 'Roarrrring at people. It was a good time, but also complicated handling 2 kids. Plus we got a free kids meal at Chick-fil-a with a combo purchase and Kaiden got to high five the cow that walks around!

The clown in the background is the one that painted Kaiden's face. Nice but kinda creepy.Kaiden ridding Mike the Tiger...Go LSU!

Bye CeCe


My sister Carmen left for Utah on Wednesday. She's moving there for the summer or possibly longer. Carmen is queen for dressing Kaiden up in fairy wings and painting his toe nails so Kaiden will be a little less girly while she's gone...none the less we'll still miss her!

The Coolest Kids on the Block



I ventured out to Target the other day with both kids, all by myself, mind you...and yes I survived...somehow! But as I was passing through the jewerly dept Kaiden saw the sunglasses and wanted to try some on. He saw these Thomas ones and since he looked so dang cute in them I agreed to buy 'em. Then I saw these adorable Hello Kitty glasses and I didn't want Kalli to feel left out so I got them too! And now my kids are too stylish for their own good.

My Lil' Helper



Joe was vacuuming the other day and Kaiden insisted on helping all by himself. He missed a few spots but other than that he did a good job. I'm sure one of us could of got the job done a little quicker but slow help is better than no help!

**Rockstar**

Joe borrowed Guitar Hero from a friend of his and Kaiden loved it! He was always wanting to hang out w/ Dad and play. I made fun of Joe for the longest time while he played b/c he looked so dorky. But I have to admit when I tried it, it was pretty fun. I totally sucked but I had fun. It can get pretty addicting and there are a lot of good songs to choose from. Don't knock it until you try it! Kaiden was so proud of him self using his 'bobo hand'

Kaiden's Biggest Fans, Kalli and Aunt Lisa. I think this picture is so cute of the both of them.

Mission Call

My sister Autumn sent in her mission papers just last week and has already received her mission call! We weren't able to be there while she opened her papers but we were able to see it all on web cam. Which is the next best thing, right?! She's so funny and started to read the wrong paper and finally a friend of hers gave her the paper that said where she would be going. And here it is...Drum roll please...Rochester, New York at the Hill Cumorah Visitor's Center and Historical Site! How cool is that! I'm so pumped for her but very sad for me. We've lived apart for a year now and that sucks but we always talk on the phone. But now I won't really be able to talk to her for 18 whole months!! I don't know what I'm going to do. She will graduate BYU sometime in August like the 17 and then report to the MTC August 29. I know she'll be a great missionary and touch many people helping them to feel the true love of Christ, but selfish me will still miss her dearly. My parents are already talking about going up there to visit and see the Hill Cumorah Pageant...so maybe I can get a free trip out of them! If so I'll be giving you a call Megan!
