To Sarah Rose...

Hey Sarah,
I love getting surprise cards from you and Mommy!
I love you so much
and I am saving a lot of fun
for when you come to Florida!
We are the best sisters, aren't we?
I left Snowy home by accident.
Can you bring him to me?
I have a new little tiny bunny to sleep with now.
Her name is PINKY.
Tell Mommy I love her cards too!
I am having fun days and can't wait till you are here 
so I can have even more fun!
Love your only loving sister,
Molly

Are We There YET?

On Wednesday, at about 1:45, Debbie, Molly, Cayden and I
hit the road for Florida.
By 1:55
Cayden asked...

ARE WE THERE YET, MEM?

Beckie and Sarah gave Molly big hugs when
they dropped her off on Tuesday night!
Cayden wanted in on some of the hugging!
Sarah says she will miss her little sister!

On the road the cousins played and sang silly 
songs together.  I drove, while Debbie tended to 
these two crazies in the back seat!
We had dinner and games here...
Love the rocking chairs at Cracker Barrel!

Molly took my camera and snapped a few pictures...


We drove till around 12:30 am and stopped in Fort Hill, Sc~
The kids napped at around 5 so Cayden was still up so
there was no sense in driving all night!
We hit the road again at 7 am on Thursday!

I dropped Debbie off in Sarasota at about 6:30 to see her Dad~
She will fly home on Wednesday!
Thanks Deb~ you were a big help with the kids 
and I hope I saved you a bit of cash only having to 
fly one way!

We got to the "Florida" at 8 p.m.
and did our traditional jump into the pool
with our clothes on!
Molly kept saying...
"it smells like Florida... yep, we are here!"

This morning, we had some errands to run before we could swim!
The wait at the gate 
is just so hard!


Molly and Cayden put on their best faces
and sang..."Jump Up~ It's a Good Day, It's a Good Day"
saying Hello to everyone we met at the community center!

Finally home, they totally enjoyed a great day 
in the pool~

Naps came next!

We walked with Roxi and her little friend "COOPER"
who would rather ride with Molly and Cayden!!
Roxi was just babysitting this cute little guy!
So fun...
so just like Mister, right Sarah?
We think they might know each other!!
When we crossed the state line into South Carolina
Molly shouted~
"Mister came here!"

Molly enjoyed talking on the phone to 
Mommy and Sarah!
She told Sarah a secret!
A big surprise for Mommy when she gets to Florida!
ssh...

Cayden liked sending Mommy and Daddy videos
of the way he is swimming and jumping
into the pool! He also loved the video mommy sent him
and the funny email too!

He is waiting for you Sarah...
to help him catch a lizard!!

We are feeling the effects of the long car ride tonight!
We are so tired!!
See you tomorrow!

Notes...


Notes are all over my house.
Notes to remind me to take this or take that with me
to Florida!

I am taking my Elephant and my Monkey gem
along for the car ride to Florida!
Check out the cute little miniatures Beckie and the girls
painted for me!
Layla, Mya, Cayden, Molly and Sarah
all in a row!

Love them!

Molly and Sarah have been "posing" again
with their Old Navy family and friends!

I am enjoying the beautiful pear trees lining our street
while they are in full bloom!
Almost hate to leave before they turn!

I met Bridget halfway to pick up this package...
I opened his car door when they pulled into the Taco Bell 
parking lot where we meet and
I was greeted with this face
full of excitement to "hit the road" to Florida!

We are off on Wednesday!
Let's hope I remember everything!

Camo boy!

Cayden and Mommy came into town yesterday to 
pick up his new "camo" orthotics for his feet!
He choose camo and they really look cute!
They are low profile on his ankle so that if he falls
they would not cause a fracture to his upper legs.
He needs these for support of his feet since Dr. Ballock
cannot do surgery because of Cayden's lack ligaments 
due to his OI.  
He is not too thrilled with these and says, "they hurt"
but we must be insistent that he wear them!
It is amazing how is walk pattern changes when they are on!

Poor little guy~ having to deal with 2 issues!
Club feet and OI
He is one tough little boy!


Today Molly came to play.
We have two new friends...
Ken and Barbie
or as Molly likes to call them
Carson and Kristin!
They were ready to swim so 
Molly set them up in the kitchen sink~
They really made a big splash!
After swimming, she treated Kristin to a shampoo!

But then Carson wanted in on the action too!
He was so embarrassed I saw him that he
took a nose dive into the pool!
Guess who is coming to Florida with us?

That's right~
Carson and Kristin!
