Caden suffers from Migraine Headaches and has for quite some time now. It upsets his tummy really really bad and he ends up throwing up most of the day. This Past Monday, he was at Grandpa's and woke up with one of the headaches. Here he is resting with Mya protecting him :) So sweet.

He ended up sleeping almost 13 hours that night, and we kept him home from school yesterday too, he kind of hand a migraine hangover :( As soon as little guy has health insurance, we're going to have to talk to the doctor about meds for him. 

Who's day is it?

Mike and I take turns getting up early with the kids on the weekends. Saturday's I get up with them and Mike gets to sleep. On Sunday's he gets up with then and I get to sleep. Usually, it's me getting up with them and him sleeping until 10 or later, but we won't talk about that ;-) This past Sunday, I FORCED him out of the bed. I just continued to push and push and push him until he got pissed off enough and got out! About an hour later, the kids kept coming in the bedroom asking for this and that. I could hear them talking out in the living, and making popcorn (yes, at 8 am) Then I hear them playing hide and seek, arguing etc etc. Then back in my room mom, mom, mom. So, I said forget it, I am never going to be able to sleep, so I got up. Walk out into the living room.. and what's daddy doing?? 

Yep, you guessed it. 

SNORING away with Mya and mason laying on top of him. Never heard a thing (I wish I could sleep this heavy) Had no idea the kids were eating popcorn, or even fighting. I actually texted him this picture yesterday, and he responded, When was this?? Of course, he says, I wasn't sleeping! 

Our own Mechanic

Caden the mechanic, in his shop :) Love it. Usually he has on his hard hat too, which is even cuter. It's not in his picture, but his tools and tool box are scattered all over the place behind him. 

January 13th 2013

I for sure had to record this. Yesterday, Sunday January 13th 2013 after Courtney and I got out of 10:30am mass, The Temp was 67 degrees ! The day prior was in the 50's too. Loved having the nice thaw. 24 hours later it's 31 out :) 

Colin

Buffalo had some amazing weather this weekend, so the kids went outside to play and enjoy the fresh air. Well, with a January thaw, comes the MUD and muck. Colin found a fun mud puddle to play in, getting his good sneakers soaked. So, when we had to leave to go somewhere, we had to wear dress shoes. I put these on him, and said, Colin, you look so sexy with your dress shoes and jeans on, Don't you? He said, Mom, I don't know what sexy means. It was just too adorable to not remember forever. What a cutie this boy is. 

Love this picture. Mike's Brother Chris, Mike and his Childhood Best Friend Mark. Chris lives in MA now and Mark in CO, so it's rare to get all 3 of them together. This was taken 12/29/12 when we were visiting Olean for the day. Chris & Melissa were in for a couple of days and Mark & Kelle had just arrived so stopped down for a quick visit before we left for home. Mark and Kelle are expecting their first daughter soon! We are all so excited to meet baby{girl}sox!
