Daddy Time

These boys are blessed with an incredible Daddy!
 
Sleepy boys...(Andrew always falls asleep in the car on the way home from church)

 
Reading books together...



Trick or Treating

We did trick or treating in the dorms at Bridgewater College! 
Andrew the train conductor...

 
And Alex the monkey...
 
Andrew was a little timid at the first few rooms we went to...

 
But then really warmed up! He kept saying, "Blue can-day?  Blue suck-uh?"  At the end of the evening, at least the wrapper of most of the candy was blue


Family Day!!

November 3rd was the first Saturday since August that we got to spend the day together as a family, so we definitely took advantage of it!!
 
We had a big breakfast together, and then went to the Harrisonburg Children's Museum.
Playing at the museum with Daddy:


The library was having a book sale, and since it was next door to the museum, we stopped in and bought 5 books for $1! 
 
Next, we had lunch and then went to Pet Smart for adoption day.  Andrew loved seeing all of the animals!

 After naps, we went to the park!

 
 
I love spending quality time with these fellas!!!
 

Two months old!

Andrew was excited about the photo shoot, too!

 
We love how easy it is to make this sweet little boy smile and laugh!


Baking cookies with Daddy

 Andrew loves to help us bake!  He was a little afraid of the "BIG MIX" at first, but then loved watching. 

 
Mr. Personality!  He reminds me so much of his Daddy!
 


 
Who doesn't love cookie dough?!
 



Carving pumpkins!

Andrew loved helping to scoop out the inside of the pumpkin! 
 



 
Benny's masterpiece...Mickey Mouse!! 



Last Home Soccer Game 2012

October 24th was Bridgewater 's last home soccer game.  They finished the season 10-8, which is the 3rd best season in the 20 year program history!  I can say without a doubt that Benny is an incredible coach, and these players are better athletes and better men after having been under his leadership! 
 
 

Andrew's Second Birthday!

On October 4th, our sweet little man turned TWO!!
 
One of our amazing babysitters Alyssa, made this cake for the party!
 
We had the party at one of the sweet little parks in Bridgewater that Andrew loves! 
 
 Opening presents from his sweet little friends, Will and Olivia.  (Their daddy is the lacrosse coach at Bridgewater, and they live just down the street!)
 
 Andrew's cupcake eating was very entertaining!
 










Alex was the life of the party!

 
Alex and Karla


Laura, Alyssa and Karla.

 
We are so thankful that the Lord has blessed us with Andrew--he has a sweet, loving heart, and is VERY full of life, energy and personality!  We love you Andrew Caden!!


One Month Old!

Andrew is such a sweet older brother!!
 

 
September 31, 2012--one month old!!


Visit from Pop and Grandma Leta

Shortly after Alex was born, Benny's dad and his wife Leta came for a visit!
 

 
We are so thankful that they were able to make the LONG trek out to Virginia for the weekend!  We love spending time with our wonderful family!
