Lots about Caden!

This blog is all about my favorite boy child!
Here is Caden dressed for Wacky Wednesday in Kindergarten!
He had very specific ideas about what he was going to wear!

A few neat art projects--the spider above is one they did in kindergarten.
The insect below was an at home project that he and Layne did--they got many compliments!


In May--our school had a celebration carnival for all the hard work done by students called IRock!
The morning session was for K-2 so I got to watch Caden in action--he and his friend Tate spent a lot of time at the lego station where you could make cars and race them!



Right around his birthday in April--this boy lost his 1st tooth--Layne and I did not even know it was loose--he bit into a strawberry and started hollering and crying--all we could see was red--we thought he had bit his tongue--but we finally got the story out of him and got Caden all cleaned up and calmed down so we could enjoy the 1st tooth!


Picture of the tooth!

We then got to watch Caden at Track and Field Day--again--the morning events were for grades K-2, so I got to watch a few of his events while keeping an eye on my 1st graders!  We were super excited that Daddy and the girls could come watch as well as some of the grandparents!
Lakyn got super spoiled up in the press box with all my teacher and administrator friends!


Long Jump

Class Races!


Wow--and then it was Kindergarten Graduation!
Our family got to come and watch Caden march in, sing, and get his diploma--plus we got to watch an amazing slide slow that the teachers had made--yes, I had a few Mommy tears--but super proud of this kiddo!  A kindergarten favorite song was on the video FARMING AND I GROW IT--the Peterson brothers came and talked to the kindergarten classes about farming--so cool!

Here is Caden and friend Cali.

Marching in....

Singing time
Lots of Number 1 fingers for 1st Grade

Look at all this hard work!


Hooray for Caden--we love you and are proud of you buddy!




Thanks for coming Grandparents--we are blessed!


Friends--Ian and Caden

Brynn wanted to check out all Caden's hard work.

Last day of Kindergarten--a whole school awards assembly--Caden got an award for good behavior!


Then we started summer and broke our arm--bummer!
Caden was swinging at our house and was meaning to jump out of the swing--he lost his balance and flipped backwards and had a bloody nose and was screaming/crying about his wrist.  Mom and Dad happened to be out our house---we calmed him down and looked his wrist over--very little swelling and he could move everything--it just hurt.  Layne and I decided to wait a day and see--the next day--still hurt, but again no swelling and then next day he was using it and seemed fine.  Two more days go by and Layne and Caden are playing kickball and the ball hit Caden's good wrist and then bounced over and hit his hurt wrist and he screamed and cried again and this time the wrist swelled up slightly--so off to StatCare the boys went and Caden came home with a blue cast--it was a buckled fracture--3 weeks in a cast and 3 more in a splint--it could have been a lot worse and after about a week of resting his arm- this trooper went to golf camp and played baseball as well--even made a hole in one at putting at golf camp!  Caden also got spoiled and loved by having a lot of friends and family sign his cast--I wish I had gotten a picture of the signed cast!


So in a nutshell--that is what Caden has been up to!
