One Week With Roonie

We have had Roonie for a whole week. The first few days we had him he slept most of the time. I think around Tuesday is when he started getting his nights and days mixed up and now wakes up at 3am and wants to play. We are working on that.

At first we bought him the necessities collar, leash, food, 1 chew toy, and bowls. Then we found that he loved my Brother and Sister-in-laws dog Daisy's bed so we went ahead and bought him a little bed and he loves it. He prefers to sleep in it than in Kaden's bed. He will go and find it and snuggle up and go to sleep.

Saturday - The rest of the day.

Sickness Update: Kaden did not get sick at all today I have continued the medicine the doctor prescribed to Kaden and limited his diet. He only complained of stomach pains. He was even up to helping his Daddy in the yard.

I was going to blog about this yesterday but I did not get a chance.

Kaden always asks when we take him to the doctor if he will be getting shots. He was so relieved when we left the doctors office that he did not get any shots. Well when I picked up his medicine from the pharmacy it looked like this.


It is just a cream you can put on the inner arm and stomach for nausea but it took alot of convincing before Kaden would let me go near him with it.

After the call this afternoon I went back to Academy to take one more look at there soccer selection. Thankfully I went into the department another way and found a huge stash of soccer gear. I found the size and color he wanted and at the price we wanted. I know it looks like Kaden is sponsored by Nike but Kaden really wanted red equipment.



Karson turned 14 months old yesterday. I think I can officially say he is walking. A few days ago he decided to walk instead of crawl most places and has been crawling less and less each day. I have to watch my little dude closer now days because he has found a new love for climbing too.
Here is our little dude walking.

Soccor Update

I just got a call from Kaden's soccer coach. He is on the Bobcats and practice starts next week. I will have the camera ready for his first game. The problem is we have 3 sports stores in town and have had some trouble finding his shoes. So now we are in a mad dash to get some so he can wear them in before his first practice. Also I had checked a little box to be a team parent when I signed Kaden up. I had no idea what it meant. Today I was informed that I am the Bobcats team manager. This is really comical if you know anything about me. I do not know the first thing about soccer rules my plan was to show up and cheer for my boy and to maybe understand it as the season progressed. I have to wear a team shirt and an official badge to the games. To be honest from the description the coach gave me of the job I am just a glorified water boy and just organize the snacks and drinks and plan a end of season party somewhere. It should be interesting and fun.

Kaden is excited that he got to pick his number Kaden is #1.

Update

We are doing much better tonight.

Kaden has a stomach bug and Karson had his 1 year old check up which meant shots. Karson did well with them and was back to his normal self just tired.

Good Find Friday

February is National Children’s Dental Health Month


Kaden did not like brushing his teeth it was a chore to do until we found this.


Tooth Tunes

A few weeks ago I bought this toothbrush for Kaden. It was on sale so I do not know the regular price. I have to admit going through all the boxes to pick one was fun. The range of characters and songs were more than I can recall. We finally narrowed it down to three:
- Spiderman
- Transformers
- Toby Mac (they had one that played One World and I almost bought it for myself).

Kaden chose Transformers.

I go around singing the theme song after I brush his teeth.

Transformers
More than meets the eye
Transformers
Robots in Disguise
It is fun being a Mom of boys.

A messy morning.

Around 4 something Kaden woke up with a tummy ache and then at 6 something the throwing up and fever started. After 1 load of laundry and 1 more waiting it is cleaned up. Thankfully Karson has his 1 year old check up today and the Doctor could fit Kaden in too when I called.

I am rethinking my reasons for not getting Kaden and Karson the flu shot when it was offered.

Sick birthday song.

Since Sunday I have had a sore throat, chills, and everything else that comes with a cold. Last night Kaden wrote me a song.

Even though my birthday is not for a few more months I think the song made me feel better than the cold medicine has.

Wednesday - Preschool Book Review

This is a book Kaden received for Christmas. Kaden loves looking at all the different breeds of dogs. This book also includes pull tabs, flaps, and textures.

We are home.

It was nice to see everyone on our trip.

The boys and I had so much fun but it is nice to be home. It is true there is no place like home. Thursday when we arrived I had a surprise visit from my youngest brother Nathan and my Dad. The boys love to wrestle and rough house with their Pampa.

On Friday the boys and I spent some time at my Pawpaw and Nannies house and my cousin Christy took Kaden to the park. For dinner the boys and I met Papa and Grannie at Cracker Barrel. Thank you so much for meeting us Papa and Grannie. We enjoyed spending time with you.

Saturday we went to Caleb's Spiderman birthday party. Kaden had so much fun.



On Sunday the boys and I spent the day shopping with my Mom and Sister-in-law.

Kaden met his new friend on Sunday too.

Meet Roonie

Roonie was given to us. He is 6 weeks old and was in a litter of 3. My Moms friend had to get rid of him and his brother and sister and knew through the blog that he is the type of dog and color Kaden wanted. Roonie is doing great with potty training. He stays pretty close to Kaden and sleeps alot.

Where is Kaden .... Where is Kaden

I hope you all are having a wonderful Sunday.

IT'S SUPER BOWL SUNDAY!!!!!!

I am not a big football fan but I am a fan of Super Bowl party food.


Now... Where is Kaden?

When we put Kaden to bed we always hear some shuffling and playing in his room for a little bit but sometimes it also goes on too long. There are times I have to take a double look to find him with everything he puts in his bed to sleep with. I guess it gives him comfort because this is what his bed looks like most nights.
