{You Better Watch Out, You Better Not Cry}

Ryan, Kaden and I went to The Riverwoods Mall one night last week with
Angie, Greg and Abbie. Kaden was lucky enough to meet this guy....



 
I've got to hand it to Kaden... he knows when to turn on the charm...

Stop Apologizing already...

Okay--
I am most definitely not sorry about the length of time between posts....
really....... I am not sorry..... okay, maybe a little.

darnit.
Here's what you've missed. (it's alot, prepare yourself)
Kaden is growing soo fast. He loves pretty much everything about fall:
watching dad play flag football
munching on leaves, crawling on the grass
and goint to Aunt Et's cabin





We took a trip to the zoo with friends... which was a blast.
Kaden really loved looking at the animals, though I think he relates them all to our pup Izzy.


 Our little monkey is actually about the right size to be a monkey... go figure.





Also for Halloween he was Harry Potter!
(they both had glasses, but they didn't last long)



He loves to swing at the park, too bad he started to enjoy this right as the cold set in.
Not to worry, we'll get some swinging in on warmer days. 
He liked going down the slide with Ryan too.





And lastly we left this little guy in care of Shelly (BFFFF) and 
my sister Katie while Ryan & I took a little trip to Hawaii.




Needless to say, we missed our little guy. 

Ryan & I have been extremely busy with Kaden, Church, Work and School.
We got put into a new ward in which we both received new callings in the Relief Soceity and Elders Quoram. We love our new ward so much, but miss alot of our old ward buddies.
Ryan is doing amazing at work. He is one of the top Bankers in the nation and gets to go to Orlando this February for a sales conference. I am finished with my first semester back at school since having Kaden, and a busy semester at that.

We are excited that Christmas is just around the corner even though, in honesty, I can't believe it's here already.
I'll be blogging again soon, at least until the beginning of Jan. when school starts.
So check back... hopefully it won't be another apology.
