Summer is over :-(

My high school friend, Megan, came to visit with her son, Patrick. It was great to see them. Patrick is 6 months old and Addie is only 3 months, so you can see what a big girl we have in the picture below.

We knew it was time to get a haircut when we could make a ponytail out of Caden's hair :-)

Our first baby, Xena! She is 11 years old now and still kicking.

Our second baby, Molly. She has more energy than all of us combined :-)

Well the summer is coming to an end this weekend. It is time for me to go back to work :-( I am happy and sad about this. I will miss my free time and spending time with the kids but I am looking forward to a steady routine and being with adults at work too. Addie has been going to daycare at my aunt's house with Caden for the past few weeks. She is doing really well and it is comforting to know that she is in good hands. I don't have to worry like I did when Caden was an infant.

Overall, we have had a great summer. Caden has really grown into a little boy now instead of a baby. He is talking up a storm. It amazes us each day how verbal he is. He is singing his ABCs and a bunch of other songs, too. If I have to listen to his kid CD in the car one more time, I think I might shoot myself! But driving to work is entertaining each morning listening to him in the back seat. He even tells me to stop singing so I can hear him sing :-)

Addie is sleeping through the night finally. Now I wish she would just wake up a little later. Five AM is just too early for me! But I am glad she has decided to sleep through the night now that I have to go back to work.

Enjoy the pictures. We hope everyone had a great summer. I had to include our "other" children in the pics...they tend to be forgotten now that Caden and Addie are here, but we do still love them!
