This is my very own Wall-E, and he's even in love with EVVAAAA. When he see's an airplane, he says it's eva's plane. He can't wait for his Wall-E birthday, and the backpack he "thinks" he's getting. Now if I could only brib him with Wall-E underwear. Maybe I can get him potty trained.

Fishing with Dad

So after months of promising Kaden to go fishing, we finally went. Well, just a short trip up to the Spanish Fork Reservoir. Kaden was so excited, he just knew he was going to catch one. But then Eli had to have a fishing pole as well. So after a short trip to K-mart we were on our way. Kaden soon found out that it wasn't all that great, and was very mad that he wasn't catching a fish. He did get the hang of casting out his line, and Eli had fun just flinging his around, and sometimes getting it in the water. So when we told Kaden we would go again, he said he just wanted to go swimming then maybe fish after.

Spanish Fork Carnival

So Monday night me and my sister Chris took the kids to the opening night of the carnival. Thinking it was smart because we were saving money. Well it turned out to be crazy busy and we stood in line for ever on each ride. Well she stood with the kids and I sat on a bench (thanks Chris). The kids really had fun. And it's amazing to see how protective Kaden is of Eli. So were leaving at the back of the park, walking back to are cars, when we pass a bunch of teenagers who are smoking. Clearly under age and I couldn't help but think, that used to be me. Well we get past them, and out of hearing range. I turned to Kaden and said, when you get older and your friends offer you a cigarette you tell them no. Because it's stinky and gross you. You can't breath and it's addictive so if you wanted to quit, you can't. When you grow old you'll have yucky teeth and you won't be able to do anything because you can't breath. Then you will get sick and die. So make sure you tell you friends NO! He says okay mom, but what if I forget? That's my Kaden for ya. I laughed and said you better not forget. But then my night gets better. It's 9:30 and we haven't had dinner yet. Kaden wants chicken strips and cheese fries from Berry's. So I go to the drive up, order the food and I'm waiting in line. I'm 2 cars from the front and I realize, I don't have my debit card, I left it at home. So I'm freaking out thinking crap how am I going to pay for this. I guess I can tell them, go home get my card and come back feeling really stupid. But then I remember Meg had repaid me in a bunch of quarters and change in my ash tray(thanks Meg). So I get to the window and tell them that I forgot my debit card, but I might have enough in change. My total is like $9.70 something. I had a couple of dollars, and I'm counting quarters, down to the pennies. The girl noticed my Mexican change, and I asked her if I could pay with that. Well the girl was really nice, and I was like 90 cents short but she gave it to me anyways. But that is my worst fear, not having money to pay, and locking my keys in my car. Over all it was a good night. These days I'm just glad to get off the couch, and out of the house.
Look Mom no hands! SAY CHEESE!!!! This reminds me of the Captain Morgan commercial. Eli rode all by himself.

Okay, so I know my blog has been really lame lately. I haven't added anything in a while. SORRY! I haven't been taking any pictures. So last night I'm laying on the couch, my usual spot these days, and the baby is just kicking like crazy. The kind where you watch your stomach and you can actually almost see the whole foot. So I call Kaden to hurry and come see. He hasn't really felt the baby yet. He's to inpatient to wait a feel for it. When I breath he says "oh, I felt it". So I'm kind of laying on my side and I grab his hand and put it on my stomach. And right after I put his hand there, the baby gives this huge push. I'll never forget the look on Kaden's face. His eyes went huge and he backed away. It was like he was thinking "there's actually something in there". He looks at me and says "Why does he kick you mom? Does it hurt". So I explain that the baby is big now and there's not much room to move around, so he bumps into the sides of me. That the baby is as big now as when he was born. So he wanted to get his baby book out to see how big that was. It was so cute and I got teary eyed. He's so excited for this baby to come, he'll be a really good BIG BROTHER. I have about 8 more weeks until my due date, I'm just hoping I make it 5 or 6 more. My nursery is all ready thanks to my sisters. They came over and painted the room and it looks so cute. As soon as I get the pictures I will post them.
