We met some friends up at Strawberry Hill Park today for an annual Easter Egg Hunt! We got there just in time and had a great time! Caden was able to practice his "finding" skills for the big hunt tomorrow!<br />

Caden is still not too sure about these giant sized animals!David and Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03859166031616546884noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329669781969009894.post-33784209126663154492013-03-25T19:12:00.000-07:002013-03-25T19:28:38.571-07:00Fashionably Late...But We're Happy You're Here!I was just telling a friend that these dreary days can go away any time now...well, they have! At least for the moment! So, spring was due here on March 20, but you would have never known. It was about 50 degrees at its highest, spending most of the day in the 40's...Brrr! It was very cold, not to mention the mood swings that Mother Nature was having! One moment it was sunny, an hour later it was hailing, then pouring rain, then snowing, then sunny again! This went on for about a week! It was wild! Some schools in the area were canceled or delayed due to snow! But...now she is here! <br />
<br />
Caden was home sick today, so he and I spent the day together. We spent the morning playing farm, indoor soccer, baseball with a balloon, building and cutting with his new Black and Decker work bench, and being lovey. It was great! Then the afternoon came and pow! The sun was shining and not only that, but it was actually warm! Warm enough for me to take a walk with Caden in a tank top! We loved it! We had a great afternoon playing in the backyard and exploring the woods behind our house. I couldn't have asked for a better day to be home with my sick little boy!<br />

So we packed up the stuff (a LOT of stuff) and headed up. We went to Franklin Falls near Snoqualmie Pass. It was a 3 mile hike round trip from where we parked the car. A perfect trail for our maiden trek. At first Caden wasn't too excited about the pack, he wanted to play in the snow more of course, but he did well.<br />

Week One!Most people dream of taking a trip to Hawaii, anywhere tropical for that matter. Most people who do travel there may stay for a week or ten days. Most people do not stay for TWO WEEKS! Yes, I said two weeks! My parents generously took our whole family to Maui for two weeks. We shared two condos just a couple doors down from each other and they both had the most breathtaking view. I mean, every night we tried to be home by sunset so we could all sit on the lanai and watch the sky turn a million shades of orange, purple, red, yellow and pink. Each night it was different and each night it was even more beautiful than the night before.<br />
<br />

The first day we arrived, we skipped Costco (told it wasn't open on Sundays...haha! We were fooled!) and went straight to the condo to unpack! We arrived early around 12, so we had the day. By the time we arrived at the condo and got settled, it was about 2pm...5pm our time. So...we had dinner! We found this hole in the wall restaurant that was open air and had a wonderful dinner. We then headed to the beach for taste of what was to come.</div>

The next morning was an early one. We had heard of this beautiful adventure that we just had to take. We needed to get up at 2:30am (Maui time) and drive up to the top of Mt. Haleakala for the most amazing sunrise...and it was just that. Believe it or not, it was freezing! We were at 10.000ft and absolutely freezing! The sight we witnessed was worth it, though.</div>

The following day, we ventured out to the aquarium. Caden LOVED it! He ran all around looking at all of the fish and touching anything and everything that he could get his hands on! It was a blast!</div>

We had a great time the first week in Maui! We all sat at the pool and talked about how sad we would be to leave if our trip were to end after just one week-We still had so much to see and do! I think we spoiled ourselves with this trip! </div>

David and Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03859166031616546884noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329669781969009894.post-63301152403669661902012-08-01T21:23:00.004-07:002012-08-01T21:29:35.463-07:00Caden's First Haircut!It was time. As much as I fought it, it was time. I had been trimming and snipping here and there, but it was time for the real thing. He needed more help than mommy could give and mommy was not ready for the buzz yet. What does this mean? It means that it was time for Caden to visit the barber! <br />
<br />
David has been going to the same barber for years and thought it would be a good idea to take Caden there as well. I knew it would be tough convincing Caden that this was a fun idea and I was right! David brought him in and I met them there. As I walked in, Caden was sitting so patiently completely mesmerized by the man snipping away at another gentleman's hair. He carefully observed each move he made, checking both men out trying to figure out what was going on. Eventually he decided to play with the dinosaurs over in the corner.<br />
<br />
When it was his turn, the nice barber, Mike, put on the old fashioned child's "plank" across the top of the barber seat and we sat Caden on top. His new love right now is to sit in or on anything, so he was loving this. Then Mike came over with a cape and it was all down hill from there! Mike started snipping away as I held a screaming boy on the chair, praying that he would not be stabbed in the head with the sheers! We decided that it might be better to have him sit on my lap. Well, that made all the difference! He sat so still, just staring at David. He loves to brush his hair with our brushes, so it didn't surprise me that he seemed to enjoy the grooming. He had a few wiggles, but we came out with a handsome (much older looking) little boy. <br />
(Please excuse the poor quality of picture...all we had were our cell phones!)<br />

What a summer it has been. We just returned from Maui to some crazy weather in Seattle. It gets warm but the skies either don't clear or wait until about 5:00pm to clear! But, clouds won't stop David from mowing the lawn several times this week! We decided that it was time for Caden to learn his fate...he will eventually take over this duty...if David can let go of it! They were SO cute out there today! Caden would do a pass, turning often to check and see what David was doing or where abouts he was. Sometimes he would stop and check out his mower, like David. Other times he would get bored and just wander over to me or the soccer ball for a bit. It was very sweet! He even wanted to mow the front with David when he moved up to the front yard! I love to see how Caden has started imitating everything we do, usually after seeing it only once! He is getting so big!<br />

Rain, clouds, peek-a-boos of sun, a high of 65...if we are lucky! Well, not today, folks! Today was around 70 degrees and just perfect! Caden and I headed over to our friends house in Suquamish for a day at the beach! It was such a great time, and perfect prfactice for our trip to Maui in a few days!<br />
<br />

Caden seemed to love the sand, after he got used to it sticking to everything! He loved digging, the buckets and especially sharing snacks with Benton! We did venture down to the water-Caden has made it very clear that he does NOT love cold water! He kept a safe distance but when he bent over to pick up some rocks, he took a total nose dive right into the wet sand. When he popped back up, screaming, he had a face full of sand and shell pieces! It was pretty funny, but he didn't find the humor in it! I wiped him up and kept on playing! In fact, he loved playing so much that we came home and took out our water table and kept on playing! What a fun sunny day! Can't wait till the next one!</div>

Where has the time gone? I feel like I say that a lot lately, but it feels true. Caden has been making us smile for 15 whole months now. He is better than ever, too! Each new day, I think I tell myself, "This is my new favorite Caden!". He grows and changes every day and his personality is coming out left and right! He thinks it is hilarious to offer us food (which was so cute about 6 months ago!) and then snatch it back and shove it into his mouth, with a huge smile, none the less! It does make us laugh! He reads like a maniac! or at least likes to pretend that he does! He loves to lay around and look at books, flip pages, point to pictures, jabber, and then flip the page! I hope his loves for books sticks around! He also loves to fall into Sophie's bed. He will walk over and just fall right onto it, dig his face into the cushion and laugh! He is a climber! He loves to climb on anything, even over us to get onto something higher! Soccer is probably one of his favorite activities, as you can see. David likes to watch the Sounders games with him. He points up at the TV and grunts non-stop! Hilarious! We are so delighted to see how his relationship with Sophie has grown and developed. They LOVE each other! He loves to pet/pat her and climb all over her. She loves to give him her toys hoping that he will hang on for a game of tug-a-war!...and he usually does! He has started imitating silly things we do like snoring, shaking his head "no", tickling, fake coughing, fake laugh, etc! Cracks us up. Two of our new favorites are when he raises his hands up and shrugs his shoulders when he doesn't know what is happening or why something is happening <em>and</em> he just started hugging! He loves to give a hug and pat you on the back! So delicious! We just love him! His biggest accomplishment has been learning to walk! It took a while, but he is off! He is so proud of himself! He comes running toward you with a huge smile! We are so in love with him!<br />
<br />
<u>Here are his stats: </u><br />
Weight: 23.6lbs<br />
height: 33in<br />
<br />
This summer is full of fun trips again! We are off to Maui with my family for two whole weeks! Stay tuned for some fun (and sandy) pictures!<br />

It was beautiful! The sun was out every day and it was about 80...perfect! We had such a great time biking, swimming (well, Sophie swam!), tubbing, sitting around the campfire, and just being together. It was a perfect way to spend the weekend! Now that Caden is a little older, he can really enjoy camping and playing with his cousins! So excited for a summer full of sun and fun!<br />

With our nephew, Brady staying with us, we were on a hunt for fun activities for boys! I have always wanted to take him to the Olympic Game Farm but since he lives in Lynnwood, it just hasn't happened. This was the perfect opportunity. <br />
<br />
We all laughed and screamed as the animals approached our car! I don't think I have ever wished the window to roll up faster than I did today! With Caden in my arms, I was a little nervous of the long tongues that might slurp him! Brady was all about feeding the buffalo, yaks, bears, etc! He loved it! Did I mention that Caden looked super cute in his flannel shirt? Well...he does!<br />

It was perfect! The sun was out, temp was just right-about 65 degrees, and Caden was raring to go to the game! We discovered that his 2T Sounders jersey would (kind of) fit, so we threw it on! He also has a hat that (kind of) fits as well! It was just adorable! And...the Sounders won! Can't wait for the season to unfold!<br />

Last year at this time, we had a three week old baby and were so sleep deprived. We drug ourselves out of the house to show off Caden and spend time with family. This year was totally different! We really did it up for Caden! He had a basket from the Easter Bunny and and got to hunt for eggs that the Easter Bunny hid when he stopped by! It was so much fun.<br />
<br />
We spent the majority of the day at my sister's house with most of our family. It was so fun. The weather was absolutely glorious! I think it made it up to 67 degrees! This is beautiful for Seattle, especially in April! We spent most of the day outside on the back porch enjoying every ray of sun on our milky white skin. Caden enjoyed crawling around and playing with his cousins. The egg hunt was the best, though! Caden was a little slow on the start so he had to find the trickiest eggs! His older cousins were just too goodand fast at the egg hunt! He had such a great time! We also realized that this was really his first time to be on the grass! That is what slowed him up! He wanted to mow the lawn! All in all, he loved the eggs, the basket and noise the eggs made when he shook them. It was a perfect day!<br />

Well...knock on wood...not this year! We have had a beautiful winter and spring! The sun seems to be sticking around more than the rain. It is so lovely!<br />
<br />
Today, we decided to take our first family trip to the zoo. Aunt Lynnsey is visiting for spring break, so we thought, with all of the sun, this was a perfect spring activity! Caden LOVED it! Despite what he looks like in some of the pictures, he actually was full of smiles and loved seeing all of the animals that we read about in his favorite books! He even got a young gorilla to come over to the window and pound on it, right in front of him! He didn't even flinch! It scared <em>me</em>! <br />
<br />
We hope this weather sticks around and even leads into a fantastic summer! It's been a while since we have seen one of those!<br />
<br />
Happy Spring!<br />

He wasn't too excited about wearing his birthday hat!</div>
<br />
It was so fun to watch him interact with the other "almost" one year old and older kids! He played like such a big boy! He loves to spend time in his play corner where all of his toys live. He pulls himself up on the toy bins and starts pulling everything out! This time had had buddies to help him out! It was the cutest thing ever! Most of our weekly play group was able to make it, so he had most of his buddies here. They had a glorified play date! It was great!<br />

And we were all wiped out by the end of the day!</div>David and Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03859166031616546884noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329669781969009894.post-33446997933516361262012-03-18T07:00:00.000-07:002012-03-23T14:36:57.626-07:00One Year Ago TodayI can't believe this day is finally here. I have been thinking about it for months now-planning, shopping, preparing, and the day is finally here. Happy 1st Birthday, sweet Caden. You are one whole year old today.<br />
<br />
This day has brought up many different emotions. We can't believe that our sweet boy is one year old already. We have been parents for one year! I gave birth one year ago! These thoughts have been racing through my mind and it all seems surreal. I never thought about how the parents felt on their child's birthday. We only think about the child and celebrating another year of life. But it is also a celebration for the family. <br />
<br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
Dave and I have spent the last month recalling our every move-different places we were, pictures we took, Sounder's soccer games we went to and little did we know that our son would be arriving in just a few short weeks! Every time we see the TV show "Wipe Out", we think of me sitting on the yoga ball, eating salmon, mashed potatoes, and broccoli, drinking a strawberry milkshake and breathing through the contractions-all while "Wipe Out" was in the background trying to provide a few giggles between bites and contractions. Shortly after that, the <em>really</em> hard labor started, which seemed to last forever.All I could focus on was the fact that I desperately wanted to meet my son and hold him in my arms. He was our baby that we had fallen in love with before he was even conceived.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
Thirty hours after this all started, we finally met our sweet son. He was the most beautiful boy we had ever seen. The emotion that overcame me was something I couldn't imagine. He was finally here. The boy we had cared for, sang to, talked to, dreamt of, was finally here and he was breathtaking; a true gift from God.</div>

Today, as I watch Caden crawl all over the living room, pull himself up on the furniture, reach for a book and flash us a huge smile with those 6 teeth of his, I think back on a year, the best and toughest year of our lives. There was a day when I thought I had traded sleep for a son to love. He was four and a half weeks early, but has surely caught up to his peers! He is busy, inquisitive, silly, loving, curious and persistent. He loves his dog Sophie and both David and I. We are so excited to watch this little one grow and become the man that God has planned for him to be. This Journey will be exciting and we are so blessed to walk beside him. We love you very much, Caden.</div>

Honestly, where has the time gone? I have been gearing up for his first birthday and I can't quite believe what I am doing! <br />
<br />
Let's see...at 11 months, Caden is the happiest boy we have ever known! He is constantly smiling and giggling and even gets down with Cookie Monster when he sings, "Let's Count Cookies"! He loves to eat Cheerios and claps like crazy to tell us that he wants more! We have been working on some signing-more and all done, and he does a pretty good job and telling us what he wants! He is becoming more and more interested in what we are eating. If he sees us eating, he army crawls over and reaches for what is in our hands-this is fairly new. He is almost crawling-the fastest army crawler around! He thinks it is hilarious to army crawl to a place that he knows is off limits such as the fireplace, look back and make eye contact with us, then, as fast as he can, he scoots toward the fire! What a stinker! He smiles all of the time and loves to flirt with all of the ladies in the stores. His favorite hobby is riding in the grocery cart at any store. He's such a flirt-especially in the line while we wait to check out! So far, I think Costco is his all time favorite store. He giggles at everything, which makes my heart so happy. Pulling his socks off during every car ride is his how he enjoys passing the time. If we are in the Tahoe, he loves to "share" his toys with Sophie! Sophie now rides at the far side of the car so she doesn't get hit with flying toys. He talks up a storm-especially mamamamama and dadadadada. He loves to look and play with other babies-especially pull on their ears and touch their face...we are working on being gentle. Caden also plays like such a big boy in the bath tub-this is after he practices his dolphin kick and gets mom soaking wet and the floor looking like a lake! He loves to sit and play with his bath toys. Swimming is one of our families favorite past times! We try to go as much as we can. He loves it! He also likes to stand up and hold on to things like the back window or an ottoman. He looks so cute doing it too! One of our favorite talents of Caden is his ability to drink out of a Camelbak water bottle! The kind you have to bite and suck at the same time! Our friends Alex and Evan had this same talent and I couldn't quite believe it! Now Caden has followed in their footsteps! He does not like to drink out of a traditional sippy cup. Finally, he has 6 big teeth! Well...really it's more like 4 full teeth and his two incisors are about half way in! His grins are so darn cute! <br />
<br />
Well...I think that about it! He is busy and keeps us on our toes but we love him more every day! Can't believe he turns one next month! Oh dear...<br />

They have so much fun together. David has this amazing way of always getting Caden to laugh uncontrollably. They are so cute together! I am so glad that David's job allows him to be home with our son as much as it does! They have such a sweet relationship, which is so important!<br />

I remember the day we met in the parking lot of Third Place Books! We had the best date I'd ever had. I knew after just a few hours that David was someone that I could spend my life with! At the end of our date, we drove down to Alki Beach to spend the rest of our evening. David excused himself and went to his car. When he pulled out a cooler of pink lemonade, I knew he was a keeper! We both feel so lucky to have found each other and now we have an amazingly beautiful family. We are so blessed.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">For our fifth anniversary, David and I decided to get away. This was one of the reasons we decided to get married in the winter. We both love snow and snow sports. What a great reason to get away and play in the snow! </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">We headed to Lake Wenatchee, right outside of Leavenworth. It was beautiful! We rented a cabin, which came with about 12 inches of snow! The whole family came-David, myself, Caden and Sophie. We loved every minute of it! We spent some time in the town of Leavenworth but a lot of time just relaxing around the cabin and playing in the snow! Sophie was in heaven! She was begging us to go outside every chance she got! We went on a great hike in the snow, where I thought we might be eaten by a snow cat of some kind...thankfully we made it back! </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">We celebrated our anniversary with dinner at Mountain Springs Lodge. We actually thought we would get married there, but decided that having all of our loved ones attend was more important than a far away destination with tough driving conditions. We have visited many times since, snowmobiling and going on sleigh rides, but we just had dinner this trip. It was fabulous and Caden did great!

We get to celebrate Christmas for a week! With everyone's crazy schedules, we have to find a date that works for everyone to gather for The Bailey Family Christmas. With everyone living so spread out, it is best if we find a time that allows everyone to stay the night and then we celebrate the following morning...Great fun! <br />
<br />
This year we decided to spend it at the Baily B&B-AKA David's parent's house! We love it up there because they live on a farm. Caden got to spend time with Great Grandpa and all the rest of the Bailey family. We had a great time!<br />

I think it was because he didn't have to get any shots! At least mom was smiling for that reason!David and Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03859166031616546884noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329669781969009894.post-65261227101726678952011-12-25T20:58:00.000-08:002011-12-25T20:58:17.335-08:00Christmas With DaddyWe are very lucky that we have so many families to share our lives with. This year David's shift was assigned to work on Christmas Eve and Day...That's just the way the cookie crumbled. Thankfully they decided to split it up this year so that they could have at least have the Eve off, which is posted below! <br />
<br />
So...off we went to share in Christmas day with David at the fire station. My fingers were crossed that we would actually get to eat together this year. There was one year that the tones went off right as we were pulling dinner out of the oven and off they went...to a <em>HUGE</em> fire that lasted through the night (until 4am!). So, the wives played games, ate a <em>great</em> Christmas dinner, hung out, wrapped up the food and went home for the night. This year was a little different. David was gone when we arrived at the station this evening on a transport to the "local" hospital (thank goodness it wasn't a ferry ride to Seattle!). Soon after we arrived, there was another call and off the rest of them went! It was just Caden and I...all alone...<br />
<br />
About an hour later, they started to show back up and around 6:20 David arrived. We were able to make a great dinner (any dinner at the station is amazing!) and actually eat all together. Caden and I were the only family that could make it this year, but that is okay. It still felt like a family dinner. I love the feeling of brotherhood that is shared amongst the guys. It is very comforting to know that when David can't be with his wife and son, he is still with family.<br />

Santa's got a beard that's long and white! Who comes around on a special night? Santa comes around on a special night! Special night, beard that's white...Must be Santa! Must be Santa! Must be Santa! Santa Claus!" Must Be Santa by Tim Moore...<br />
<br />
Caden loved reading this book, especially with David because he knew the real song! We spent a lot of time this holiday season sharing the gift and delights of Christmas with Caden. He loved every minute of it from shopping with mom and dad to wrapping the gifts...or eating the paper...to reading books every night about Baby Jesus and Santa. It has been such a blessing and so much fun to share in this first Christmas experience with Caden. <br />
<br />
He had his first Christmas with the Smith/Yamada clan yesterday since David has to work today. Caden loved opening gifts with his cousins and playing with his new toys! I think the amount of toys was a little overwhelming for him! He is not used to having so many new things in front of him at once! He still enjoyed every minute of it.<br />
<br />
This morning, he was so excited he tried to wake up at 1:50AM! I quietly reminded him that Santa won't come unless he is in bed with eyes closed...preferably sleeping! Soon after he fell fast asleep and thought he heard Santa up on the roof top with a click, click, click! As David and I rolled over and noticed that is was 5:40AM, we decided that this would be as good of time as any to start our first Christmas with our son. Since David needed to leave for work at 7:00, we flopped out of bed and decided to get the day started!<br />
<br />
Caden was an old pro this morning after his practice last night with Grandma and Grandpa! He pulled his toys right out of his stocking and started playing with them. Sophie was the real pro! She ran down stairs faster than fast and pounced right on her stocking...passing up Caden's with a cow puppet sticking out! She knew just where to go!<br />
<br />
We had a great morning together with our little family and next we will be joining David at the fire station for dinner tonight...hopefully!<br />
<br />
Many blessings this holiday season and wishes for a wonderful 2012! We can't wait!<br />
