Kaleb's 4th birthday party



Ahh, what a great time Kaleb had at this birthday. All the kids (and some parents too) were dressed up. In this pic, we are missing 2 little ones, but overall, it was the best pic I got. Do you see the birthday boy?? He knows to sit all the to the back of the couch and I was unable to get him to move forward to be seen. It was a fun filled weekend with his MeMa and PaPa being here and all the fun activities.

Kaleb loved his cake. In fact, we just finished it last night. Sams Club did a great job! They made his cake to look like a pirate scene and I made sure they spelled his name right. We had such a fun time. Tonight is Halloween and I'll get a few pics of the kids tonight and then post those as well (our silly pumpkins too). Have fun and stay safe tonight.

Kaleb's big boy bed!!




It's done... finally. This bed took all weekend to get ready. We were given the mattress so that needed cleaning. Then we bought the bedding and it got washed.....it felt like 10 different loads. Once the frame was put together (after injury to Nekol's toe when it married the pieces on the floor.....which lead to major carpet cleaning from the pool of blood it left) we needed to add his headboard from his 4 in 1 crib....."it just bolts up"....not!! Clif had to drill holes in it and find different nuts and bolts so it would stay together. I guess I know a good christmas present for him, more batteries for his drill. That was the main reason this took so long, his batteries kept dying on him. After all of that, Kaleb loves his new big bed.


"It's more comfy" he says. The best part is that he has stayed in his bed all night long.....and no little boy accidents!!! I think Dexter is happy too. We finally got the windows done as well. We've had "temp" window coverings up for 3 years now. Isn't that the way it seems to go. Finally we got the blinds up and a valance. Of course they will stay with the house if it ever sells.
