So the summer has ended and it only my second blog post !!!  I have a lot of catching up to do! 

I feel like it rained a lot this summer, so Blake did crafts.  He loves to paint, color and put stickers everywhere!!  I hope Max loves to do these things as well in a few months!

On the days it was nice, and there were many of these, we did it all!!  Water parks, festival’s, Indianapolis Zoo, Louisville Zoo and our very Cincinnati Zoo, Parades, Museum Center, and the list goes on….. I will try to up load the pictures in order so you can see the boys GROW!!!  Little Maddox got his first tooth on Father’s Day, June 21st and his second a day after that.  He will soon have as many teeth as his big brother.

Beach, WOO HOO!!!  Was what I heard for a week leading up to our vacation.  Blake was so excited about going to the ocean!  I believe I heard, “I wanna go beach” or “I wanna go on a cart ride” several dozen times a day!!!  We have been home for a few days and Blake is still asking for the beach and golf cart!!!  On our first day there Carly and Jay brought over their beautiful girls!!  Olivia and Preston were all about the the girls, but who wouldn’t be!  We had such a good time and look forwad to the next trip!!

Here are a few more shots at the beach!

Brad and I are so EXCITED for Carly and Jay!  They welcomed Sydney Kay Louden on March 19th at 8:36 AM, weighing 5 pounds, 9 ounces!  Abby Gail Louden was born a few minutes after her sister, weighing 4 pounds, 13 ounces!

We are pleased that both girls are now home and Carly and Jay are doing well!  They may not be getting much sleep, but all are in good spirits and look forward to the many sleepless nights looking into their beautiful girls faces!

Please Check Carly’s Blog for all Abby updates!   www.carlyandjay.wordpress.com

or lets get the kids together and play!   I love that so many of my friends have children around the same age as Blake and Max, it makes it so nice when we all get together!  It has been fun watching them all grow up and now playing together!  I can not wait for the many more mommy brunches because of the many more children that will be joining our group in the next few months!  Congrats to all of my girlfriends who are expecting!!

Here are a few pictures from today!

I am so excited that Carly and Jay are Blogging, well Carly is blogging!   I feel like I stalk my friends by their blogs, facebook account and myspace.  I am sooooo busy during  the day with my kiddos that I have not really keep in close touch with my friends!  Lets face it, with2 under 2 I just can not hang out on the computer or phone all day!  Plus, I really like playing with Shakers and Little Max.  Carly is about to find the only free time that she has is when the girls nap, I really hope for her that they get on the same schedule before 3 months.   I will be sad for the next few weeks because I know I will not be able to call and chat with Carly (and Heather), but I will be stalking their blogs!  Carly, Brad and I are so excited for you and Jay!  Twins are double the blessings and double the fun!  I know you will enjoy and love these babies soooooooooooo much!

I never thought the title of this Blog I created a few short months ago would continue to ring so true…..

Monday (10.27.08) I spent at Children’s for Blake’s last surgery.  This was a breeze and he did so well!  I believe that Blake went in to the OR at 11.00 and we were talking to the Dr. at 11.30.  We were ready for baby #2 to arrive at anytime. 

Tuesday (10.28.08) Brad caved to the itch that he has been having to get back on a bike.  He thought that he would play it safe and instead ride an ATV or what he calls a “retard charriot”.  I was sitting in Mercy Anderson’s ER by 8.30 with Brad and his broken collar bone.  I don’t think it matters how many wheels it has, my husband will still get hurt!  Now we are wanting baby #2 to stay put for a little longer.  Brad will not be any help with my little men for a good 6 weeks.  So my door is open for all who want to come over and hold babies! 

On a better note my dear friends, Heather and Nate, will be bringing home another little BOY in March.  We can not wait to meet little Nolan Jude, named after his daddy!  Congrats to the Wolff family.

We hope everyone had a great Independence day and a nice long weekend!  Blake liked the fireworks with the help of his Aunt JJ.  We spent the 5th lounging around the pool at the Cahill Manor.  Blake’s “Aunt” Cindy loaded him up on chocolate covered bananas and then “Uncle” Daniel took him for a trip on his scooter!  A long nap was much need for our busy boy!
