Caleb's 1st Push Pop
Tonight for dessert Emily wanted a Push Pop. Aunt Debbie was over for dinner and she said, "I think Caleb wants one too..." so here it is Caleb's 1st push pop (of course the only one left was RED!!
His face was PRICELESS!
I made Aunt Debbie clean up the mess, she just put him in the sink and sprayed him down :)

A Lesson in Being Thankful...
As some of you know, Caleb had an MRI at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital today.
Before you start calling me, it was not a big deal, just a precautionary test. To make a long story short, he has a small external birth defect at the top of his bottom and the doctors want to be sure there is nothing going on internally with his spine. They really feel it's just external, but bottom line is if there is something internal, it will be an easy surgical fix and he will be fine.
All that to say, as we walked the halls and spent time in waiting rooms at Vandy today, I was continually thankful for healthy children! I think all too often we take it for granted.
But also I was thankful today that there is a place as great as Vanderbilt Children's Hospital to take care of the children who need that extra tender love and care.
We've now been there once with Emily & twice with Caleb. I pray that will be all the visits for us, but it's good to know they are there if we need them... in the midst of life's craziness, don't forget to be thankful for the "little" things!

My Little Girl's Journey to Kindergarten
Well it's been an eventful few weeks for my Emily Grace... she has officially started Kindergarten. We had Parent Orientation, Open House, Testing Days and today she had her 1st official day...
Unfortunately she was sick yesterday on her real 1st official day so we celebrated today!
I'm so proud of my sweet girl, she is loving every minute of it so far...She came off the bus one day with a sad face, I asked her what was wrong and her answer was "I didn't want to come home!" I'm not sure if that's good or bad, but I'm going to take it as a good thing. Here's a few pics of our Kindergarten adventure... (look how little she looks with that backpack next to that big bus)

The Chaos of Cooking Dinner
Any of you that have ever cooked dinner with 2 children in the house will TOTALLY understand this...
While I was making dinner, Emily helped herself to a container of yogurt, half of a jar of Mrs. Dash seasoning and the leftover spaghetti sauce in the jars I was using and she made this lovely creation...
And then I turned around to find Caleb by the garbage can playing with an empty pizza box and a milk jug, check out the grin...
They also succeeded in making this lovely mess...
But I guess all the mess was worth it, we had a nice dinner :)
