What a summer...We have had a great time with friends and family. We are getting ready to move into our new house and I got a new job!!! Friday I accepted a position in Lagrange at a general surgery practice to be there new Practice Manager. I get to run the office with the exception of HR duties. I am so excited. This is a big step up from being a medical assistant, I am thrilled working closer to home and I am ready for the challange. The packing is almost done for the exception of last minute things. We get to look at these stupid boxes for one more week. We can't wait to get settled in our new home. Caden is officially potty trained. YEAH!!! no accidents and he wears his "undies" all day every day. As you can see from the pics he is very proud of himself and so are we. Well I guess the next post will be when we get moved in......

Feeling better than ever......
What a difference having your tonsils and adenoids taken out makes. Caden sleeps soooooo good now. He doesn't even wake the kids at daycare up from nap anymore!!! As you can see from the picture in the last 4-5 days Caden has been more himself and even happier because he is getting a good night sleep. No more snoring or holding his breath. He had a bad case of chronic obstructive sleep apnea, but not anymore. We have actually hit a milestone recently. Caden took interest in potty training when he was 18 months old, so we bought him a potty chair. He immediately took to the potty thing and thought is was fun , but since then he has what we call regressed several times. No interest to interest then back to no interest-- you get the point. Here is where the milestone comes in. The last couple days he has been wearing big boy underwear. Daycare sent his paper home Monday and Tuesday and said he stayed dry all day and pee-pee'd on the potty and #2. He even started standing up and peeing. That may be more of a bigger deal to me than him. Hopefully he won't regress anymore. We will keep our fingers crossed and see what happens. We are so proud of him. We are also amazed at the songs he has memorized. The cutest is "Jesus Love's Me". Hopefully I can figure out how to download a video and put it on my blog. We have to sing it every night before bedtime. On another note, we started packing since we will be moving in a few weeks. We can hardly wait to settle in our new home. Caden seems to be getting more excited about the fact. We will keep you posted on the move....
