Every post of mine seems like it could be titled "another Kaden story"...just sayin'!
Today he was eating breakfast-toast, eggs, yogurt and banana (the boy can eat!) and Kaden says to me "I need more." I said, "Finish what you have!" and he says "It's all gone except the bones!"
It took me a minute. I was pretty sure he didn't have anything with bones. I realized then he was calling his crusts "bones" because we never make him eat the bones. He insisted...INSISTED...they were bones. And even after he ate them he told me "You maked me eat bones!" (I am pretty sure he's going to tell his Daddy on me.)

Another Kaden story...
The other day I had to run to Walmart to grab a card real quick. Of course, with kids I still had to grab a cart. We went in, got the card, paid and were out in a matter of minutes (only since it was 8am)... I put Kate back in the car and left Kaden in the cart to return it to the cart return. When I pushed it in I did what every other Walmart cart returner does (keeping in mind, not all Walmart shoppers actually return their carts!) I slammed it into the other carts in a nice, but forceful way. Kaden looks up at me and goes "WHoa MOM! Watch where you're going!"
I felt like I had a teenager. REALLY, Kaden? THanks. My very next thought was, "If I ever get into an accident and he says that-heads could fly." Just sayin'.
I just have to say, for being at Walmart a whole 5 minutes it was memorable. Between Kaden's mouth and the phone calls I got. One was as I walked in-from the Walmart pharmacy. Now-how convnenient is that? Except I didn't want the meds. Of course, I'll never be in Walmart when I do want the meds and they call. Oh well.

Cheyenne & Denver
Early this month we headed down to Cheyenne, WY so Luke could attend the WES Conference for his engineering stuff. (Can you tell I know a lot about it?) We headed down on Thursday and did a little shopping and took the kids swimming. Both LOVED the pool. And Kate was so adorable in her little baby swimsuit. Want proof? Ok, fine, I'll put some pictures in (since you twisted my arm, and all.)Ok "some pictures" might have been an understatement. Sorry.
While Luke was at the conference on Friday, the kids and I did some shopping. It was a really windy, cold day and by about 2pm I was SO done. Thankfully, Luke decided to skip out on the last 45 mintues of the conference and we got to head to Denver (and Brent and Claire's) early. We got there in time to eat some dinner and then Luke and Brent headed to a Nuggets basketball game. While they were there we did our best to tire out our 2 year olds...here's a hint to what they did!
I think they ended up having a bath everyday we were there. It was a great entertainment when we adults were worn out! They went to bed VERY well for us that night.
Saturday we took the boys to the mall to wear themselves out in the indoor play area. That's where my finger decided to swell, itch, and totally take away from my day. I survived, but it sure was annoying. For the afternoon, Claire and I got to go shopping all by ourselves. It probably sounds more fun than it was, since neither of us felt like we had money to blow! It was nice to get away and I'm totally jealous that Claire has access to all those stores within 5 minutes notice. (Traffic depending-of course!)That evening we made the men put the boys to bed. Let's just say it didn't go so well for them. It makes a mom feel good...is that bad????
Sunday was the superbowl, snacks for the kids, more baths, and just hanging out and relaxing.
Oh yah. And church! Kate got compliments for how good of a baby she is in the church nursery. She's such a sweetie!
Here's a picture of the boys...as you might have noticed it was a little hard to get them still enough to get a good one. This was MAJOR success!
We got home Monday evening and we were all so tired that we put on Lady and the Tramp and had movie night til we were allowed to go to bed!
Thanks Brent, Claire, and Parker for letting us see your world!

A little bit of ♥
The last time I posted I remember it was a sick day...it's been a while, and yet, not much has changed! Fevers seem to be the theme of this year so far, but we're glad that so far, they don't seem to be signaling anything too horrible. Kaden's the last one to have a fever, and today seems to be doing MUCH better. Kate's fever seemed to be a result of teething-although-we still have no teeth to show for it. At this rate she's gonna be a hairless, toothless, one year old soon. Poor girl. *edit* I think this picture is how she's felt lately...with her teething, etc...
We celebrated Valentine's day a bit early in the Antonich world. Tradition is for me to make heart pizzas and have candlelit dinner as a family. Kaden loved his mini heart pizza and the "fires". I think Luke did too. He brought home some roses-which are STILL sitting beautifully on the table a week later. Kate got to have mac 'n cheese...she seemed thrilled until she realized she didn't have pizza on her tray. I'd post a picture but my camera has disspeared. Very frustrating. VERY.
*edited* The pictures are now uploaded. I'm thanking the camera elves for bringing it back to me so soon! Here are my other two Valentines! I'm a lucky girl!!!
Every year I just can't wait til next Valentine's Day!
