So far we've had a really good weekend. We had friends over for a cookout last night. This was the first time entertaining on our new deck. The adults were able to hang out and talk while the kids played in the yard. It was a very nice evening, except for that the neighbor decided he needed to mow his lawn while we were out there. Oh well. I'm up early, which I am not loving, but Caden has a little cough and I don't think that he feels very good. Neither boy has been sleeping all that well lately, so Mommy and Daddy are pretty tired. Yesterday we had both been to the gym and showered by 8 am. Yuck. Today is a work day at church, so Johnny won't be around much. I don't even try to get involved with stuff like this because I would spend more time chasing the boys than working. Tomorrow is church and a cookout at Don and Bonnie's. Libby and Cameron had talked about coming down and taking the kids to the zoo on Monday, but that didn't work out. Now Johnny and I are trying to find something fun to do.

We found Caden's first tooth on Thursday! He does patty cake now and I'm pretty sure that he's said "bye" a few times. His "Ma Ma" and "da da" noises sound more and more like he's actually saying our names. Both boys are getting hair cuts in a few weeks, and then we're finally going to have Caden's "9 month" and Corban's 2 year pictures taken. I'm looking forward to that.

Mom and Dad have been out with their stawberries all week, they'r having a lot of fun with them, but I am so jealous not to be eating any of their strawberries! Maybe next year the boys an I can come down and "help." Have a great Memorial Day weekend everybody!

Hey Janette, I finally found your blog. Didn't even realize you kept one until this evening. We think of you guys often . . . about everytime that McKenna takes a bath and uses her special towel with her name embroidered on it. We're going to have to find out where you got it made so we can order one to match for our next one due in September.
