Trip Home

I flew home last week to spend the week visiting my family and so everyone could meet Donnie. The week seemed to go by too fast and with everyone's busy schedules we spent as much time as we could with everyone. Cadynce had so much fun again seeing her cousins. Robbie was by far her favorite this trip. She was attached to him the whole time. At one point in the trip she was running around the house saying "I'm having so much fun with my cousins." It was so cute. While the cousins were out of town for a few days my mom drove with me to Indianapolis to visit Catherine and Chase and to see their apartment. We took a trip to the Indianapolis Zoo. Cadynce spent every minute she could tormenting their dog Rex which was a nice break for Donnie. We had a great flight home with Donnie laying on my lap and Cadynce asleep like a baby in my arms. Traveling alone is hard work. I was so thankful for the woman sitting next to me who offered to hold Donnie when we got to San Antonio so I could get all my stuff and handle Cadynce who had just woke up. She carried him off the plane for me until we got the stroller. We were so excited to be back home and I don't know who had the bigger smile...Don or Cadynce. We got home around 11pm and Don had a surprise for Cadynce...her first bicycle. So we got out of the car and let her ride her new bike in the street. She thought it was so cool and she loved wearing her helmet. I can't wait for our first family bike ride with Donnie in the trailer and Cadynce on her big girl bike. View Album for more pictures.

Clark Vacation

We met Grandpa and Mimi and Jeff and Julie out at Lake Tahoe for a family vacation last week. We stayed in a beautiful condo right on the lake and had a fantastic time hanging out and also enjoying the beautiful mountains and of course the lake. We rode the gondola to the top of the mountain, went jet skiing, horseback riding, and had our pictures taken while we were there. Everyone got a lot of quality time with the kids and we really appreciated all the help we had. Cadynce is also potty trained now...no more diapers!! View Album for more pictures.

2 Months Old Already!!

Donnie is growing up so fast! He is getting so big and I'm enjoying every second with him. He's doing quite a bit of talking when he's awake, but it will always be a struggle to get a word in with Cadynce around. His arms and legs are constantly going and he looks like he's riding a bike most of the time. When he's laying in his bed or the pack and play he gets the whole thing shaking. We finally got out the little gym for him to lay under and kick the animals, and they are taking a serious beating. His hands are still in a fist so he looks like a little boxer. Cadynce better watch out when she gets in his face. He's got to be tough to put up with her. He is sleeping through the night now...wooohooooo!!!! View Album for more pictures.
