In like a Lamb.....

It looks like March will be coming in like a lamb-they say it could hit 40. I'm not sure I want it to go out like a lion though-does it have to go out like a lion? Unless of course it is a gentle lion and we get some rain showers. Oh well....most of you know what time of season it is-well those who graduated from Canby do. Yes, Doug is at the state tournaments today. He met up with his friend Craig and away they went. I believe he will meet Randy and the whole town of Canby there. Caden didn't want to go-"it's boring". Doug believes he is getting punished for his younger years. First the Packer thing and now Caden doesn't like wrestling. Doug tried reverse psychology again last week by saying "I like the Packers" (yes, Doug said that-I think he had his fingers crossed) and Caden said" welcome to the Packer Fan Club!"Yeah- didn't work.
We spent a few days at Wisconsin Dells at this resort. The boys had fun. Caden, who doesn't like getting his hair washed because a drop of water might fall in his eyes, had a blast and now misses the Dells. He kept going up and down the slides. Colton even got in on the slides. We went down this family tube ride where it is completely dark until you come out at the bottom. Well, we finished the ride and I was going to take Colton's life jacket off and he wouldn't let me! I asked if he wanted to go again and he shook his head yes, so up we climbed and flew down the dark swirling, twirling tunnel again. After that I was done-it got me dizzy.
Here are a few photos from the trip.
Caden kept busy with the computer game Bugdom but for some reason I forgot all about keeping Colton busy! So we played the game take off my shoes and sock, no wait I want them back on. That game got old fast for me. (as always you can click the picture to make them larger.)

Caden was on his own at the slides. He went up them as fast as he flew down them. I should have counted how many times he went down.

Colton got tired with the toddler area when he saw the balls flying in the big kids area so we had to go and collect balls.

Some highlights of our trip-Caden help out making this list.


The boys like our room. All the rooms are condos that are owned by different people. I like that the place smelled new and everything looked neat and clean:)

Colton in the toddler area

We could not keep up with Caden. He was fast climbing. The poor guy ran so much that by the time we were ready to head back to our room he was beat.

The boys at one of the water parks

In one of the lobbys they had a black bear so we had to have a photo shoot. They also had a few other animals hanging around.


One of the boys' favorite activities in the room was hiding under the sink. They thought it was a pretty good hiding place. We heard "come and find me" many times.
And just because he's smiling and is my baby......
