Fall is here.....

I absolutely love this time of year when the leaves are a rainbow of colors and the weather is cool and breezy. Fall is my favorite time of year so I took a few picture of the fall season here in northeast Louisiana.

Okay, enuff of the fall pictures. You get the drift. I have tons more. I have been snapping them here and there for the last 2 weeks. Here are some new pics of my precious little boy.

This is my dad showing Cayden how to jump.

Papaw feeding Cayden some blueberry banana baby food.

Nana and Cayden at Mamaw Betty's last Sunday.

This is such of cute picture of Cayden. He must have been waving at a ghost or something because nobody is over there. But I love this picture.

Good pic of Cayden and Nana.

Cayden this morning.

Here is a few of Cayden pulling himself around this week. Actually, last night Cayden got on hands and knees and crawled for about 30 seconds. He inched may a foot and then dropped down to pull himself.

We did have a little scare this week. Cayden's doctor wanted him to have a CAT Scan of his head because it is so big. So Wednesday at 1:00 we were at Glenwood Regional Medical Center getting a CAT Scan. I was so worried all week. But his results were that he is a normal little boy with a big ole head like his daddy. I was really worried they were going to sedate him and he could not eat for 6 hours before so I was thinking he was going to be going beserk. But he did good and I fed him a bottle while he had his CAT Scan. Evidently my hand looks normal too. We are so thankful that everything is okay with our little man. God does answer prayers.

Happy Halloween...

I thought I would share a little of our Halloween night. Cayden and myself had so much fun and surprised a few people by trick-or-treating at their house. First here is a few of Cayden in his Halloween costume taken before Halloween.

How cute is he? Answer: Soooo Cute.

Okay, we started off by walking across the street to our neighbors. I got a 2 for 1 when I found Mrs. Ann at Mrs. Gardner's house. I love Mrs. Gardner she is so sweet and she looks after us and we look after her. She gave us figs this year and I had mentioned that I had never had fig preserves and she made me some. Which was delicious! I don't think I ever told her that I liked them.

How cute is that picture. Here is Mrs. Ann and Cayden. Cayden scores some pretty awesome cookies from her.

After that we loaded up and headed over to Mrs. Donna and Kenny's house.

They were so excited for Cayden. I actually took about 10 of them because they each come out the door one at a time. But these are the final two pictures. Then we headed over to Karen and Mike McMillan.

Karen works with me at Angus Chemical. It was actually the first time that I met her husband. He was so nice and they just played with Cayden. Cayden actually ate his first Halloween candy at their house. He loved the suckers they gave him. I only have one pic of them because their first picture was really good and all were looking at the camera.

Next we stopped by my Aunt Margie's house but she was in her nightgown and robe already (at like 5 o'clock. She would not let me take her picture but my cousin Renee and her 2 little ballerinas were there.

Then we journey to Bastrop. We went to stop by my grandmother's house. Well I knew that she probably hadn't bought any candy, so I had to play around with her. So I call her when I am almost there. I ask if she has bought any candy and she says no that she hasn't had a kid come by in years. So I tell her that I think she may have one this year and she says nah. So I ring the doorbell and she says, "Somebody's ringing my doorbell right now". So I told her I would let her go so she could go answer the door. She was so surprised when she answered the door. It was priceless. Cayden is her 7th great grandchild and he was the only one to ever trick-or-treat at her house. My other cousins live in West Monroe and out in Calhoun. Not their fault. But it was great. But she was in her gown also, so no pics.

From there we went by Bill's aunt Nell and she was not home but I knew where to find them (at my next stop). We stop at Bill's other aunt's house, Aunt Betty and Uncle Johnny Mac. They were all playing cards so I interrupted for about 15 or 20 minutes. Aunt Betty didn't have makeup on so she let me take a picture but said I couldn't put it up on here. But here is Cayden and Uncle Johnny Mac.

Cayden was getting very tired by this point. We were in and out of the car seat and he was wore out. I forgot to get a picture of Aunt Nell and Brenda with Cayden. I just realized that is Aunt Nell in the background of the above picture. Brenda won't hold Cayden until he gets bigger. (She has been saying that forever)

Then the finale. We finally make it to my Mom and Dad's house. My dad knew we were coming but my mother had no idea. I parked at the end of the driveway so Gretchen (the dog) would not give it away. We sneak up and ring the doorbell. Nana and Papaw came rushing to the door and Nana was so surprised. I wish I had gotten a picture of the moment.

That is a ring pop in his mouth not a pacifier. Anyway we had a good time and I was glad it was over. I started at 4 and got to mom's around 8.

I will leave ya'll with one more pictures of Cayden taking a bath this week. He was getting his head washed.

Doesn't he look like one of the munchkins off Wizard of Oz?

Love to all,
