The car is loaded completely full of luggage and kids and we're off! For one night that is. Wow, the amount of packing that goes in to taking four kids, even for one night is crazy! During the end of June every year, Mark has a coaching clinic in Fayetteville. It is also all star week for the different high school sports. The bad thing is that now for Cale's first two years of life, it has landed on his birthday. Last year Mark drove to Ft Smith to meet us for dinner. This year, since everyone is a little older, we decided to go stay with Daddy. This is Cale watching Dora on the iPod! What a big boy! When we got to Fayetteville we went to Build A Bear. Cale and Ellie had never been! Cale built a dog and Ellie a bear. Ellie went first and Cale watched as she helped put the stuffing in her bear, gave it a heart, did all the "rituals" with the heart, putting it inside and watched the lady sew it up!! Then it was his turn....he didn't want to step on the peddle to stuff his doggie (auggie) so the lady did it for him. I helped him grab a heart in which the lady tried to just take from him to stick inside. She was going to skip all the, rub the heart on your head so your doggie always knows who you are, rub the heart on your heart so your doggie will always love you etc.....when she went to take it from him though, he started rubbing it on his head! Me, Mark and the lady just died laughing!! So she went through everything with him and he had a great time!!! He and Ellie then washed their animals and picked them out some clothes. Callie and Cade brought along their build a bears and each got a new outfit! It was a great time!! Sadly though, not a single picture. That evening we let the kids swim in the indoor pool, went to dinner at Powerhouse and had a late night run to Shake's frozen custard! Yummy! Then we all crashed! Here is a picture of the Birthday BOY on his 2nd Birthday!
Here he is with his bwantie (blankie), sippie cup and Auggie!!
Then it was time to hurry back home for Cade's ballgame!
Quick picture before we left for the game!
One exhausted mommy after two days of nonstop running! But isn't Cale cute here?
What Birthday would be complete without a cake! We love Cookie Co Cakes! This is right up Cale's alley! He loves anything that has to do with tractors and cows!
He wanted to eat the cow!
Cade digging in!
Ellie thought it was yummy! I love her face here!
Callie Grace eating the piggy!
and as always..the challenge of getting a picture of all four kids together! It is funny to look at all their different expressions!
CALE AARON
At 2 years old you are...
A complete sweetheart! You love to cuddle. You carry a St. Louis Cardinals blanket that is silky on one side. You call it your "Bwantie" You love nap time!!! You usually take a 2 hour nap around noon. You love tractors and cows! Your favorite TV show is Dora. You love to sing songs. ABC's, Twinkle Twinkle, certain Dora songs and Taylor Swift songs that Callie listens to! You are all boy! You run, jump and bounce everywhere you go! You aren't completely potty trained but do go to the potty successfully often. You really don't like toys. You do love to play outside! You have been a pretty good boy at the older kids' ballgames as long as Nanny brings you your Gatorade to drink! Your blue eyes light up the room. You love to swim. Our first swim this year you were a little gun shy, but you quickly got over that and start screaming "WATER" as soon as we pull up at Uncle David and Aunt Mara's house! I could go on and on! Just know you are loved my sweet little man!
