Molly started to ride a two wheeler. She picked it up fairly easy.

Sarah seemed a little more unsure of it but once she saw her sister do it....

She did it too! Great job Sarah... I told you the faster you pedal, the easier it is!

Wishbone Day 2011

Friday, May 6th was Wishbone Day! Bridget and I were in South Carolina at the Comfort Inn, our stop on our travels home from Florida! Woo Hoo!
Friday morning we woke and Cayden put on the shirt his mommy made for him!
The back says... "I have an Unbreakable Spirit" And he does!

Mommy and Mya look cute too in their Wishbone shirts or as Cayden calls them... "BROKEN BONES SHIRT"!!

A very happy boy at breakfast! He says hello to everyone! He made friends with many on our travels! Maybel, the waitress, loved him so very much! She asked us about the shirts and then went to search for something YELLOW to pin to her uniform!

So many friends commented on Facebook(Chris, Mel, Roxi, Meigan, Katy) and my blog (Gina, Sheila, Keetha, Chrissy,Tanner, Becky, and Bridget) that they too, were wearing something YELLOW for Cayden!

Maybel took this picture for us before we hit the road!

Meigan sent this picture on her phone!

Roxi sent this picture on her phone!
Sarah Rose made a t shirt and sent a picture to Aunt Doodie (Bri) so I don't have it to post here! Katy posted her picture on facebook from her classroom!

We wanted to say THANK YOU to each and every one of you who took the time to think about Cayden that day! We love you all!

I have so so much to post about the rest of our trip! Stay tuned!

On the road again!

When we drive to Florida, we usually take I-75 all the way. This year, Dave advised Beckie and I to take I-77 instead because of the pretty serious storms down 75. We heeded his advice. and it was a good thing! This route takes us thru Orlando... you know, the home of DISNEY WORLD and SEAWORLD! The girls were excited to see the Mickey Ears but sad to know we were not stopping to visit the clubhouse! Beckie has decided to travel that route again next year and STOP for a few days at DISNEY~ the girls will be a perfect age!!

Meanwhile, I immediately thought of my friend Julie, who was a neighbor of mine and mom to Bridget's childhood best friend, Kristin! Kristin and Bridget did EVERYTHING together from age 2 to about 5 or 6~ they were so cute together! Then Julie and Al moved away ~ it was so sad!

Anyway... Kristin is a trainer at SeaWorld! Julie shared some pictures with me and I just knew I would be stopping to see her show on the way home! Bridget, Cayden and Mya are driving home with me so it was a great idea to stop and see Kristin! We contacted her and arranged to visit SeaWorld ~ we sent this picture to tell her we were excited to see her at her fun job!

Papa had one last dance with Mya Brynn before his flight home on Tuesday!
Bridget and Cayden enjoy one last swim in "the little pool"!

Look Uncle Tegan, Cayden found your remote control car from when you were a little boy and he had so much fun playing in the driveway!

We left the Florida house at noon today and drove the 4 hours to Orlando. We checked into the hotel and Miss Mya was happy to play on the bed! Sarah and Molly... remember how we always jump on hotel beds...shh~ well, Mya loves to do it too!

Bridget is happy to relax with her girl!
Cayden likes that we are on the 10th floor~
Mya was squealing about it too!
We went right down to the pool for a quick swim!
Meme and Mya being silly together!
Cute Cayden!
A little ball game in the water!

We are off to bed now... Cayden keeps looking at the pictures on the computer of Kristin with "Her whale" and he is so very excited to meet them both!

He keeps asking "where is Kristin?'

I am so excited that Kristin said her mom has decided to make an impromptu visit to Orlando as well... It will be so good to see her! I am so thrilled!
Julie is so very proud of Kristin and I am happy we can stop and see her in action! I will surely take my camera!!

WISHBONE DAY is coming!

Wishbone Day is May 6th! We got busy creating our own t-shirts with the Wishbone Day symbol on them!

Bri made a bib for Miss Mya!
We made shirts for Cayden, Meme and Mommy!
And a cute little onesie for Mya!
Cayden loved his "Broken Bones" shirt!
He loved it alot!

Wishbone Day is all about raising positve awareness about Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI). All over the world people will wear yellow to show support of someone with OI~ someone they know and love! Our little someone is Cayden~
We are celebrating a year without a fracture too! Do we count his broken toe? OUCH! Cayden is a real trooper. He has an UNBREAKABLE SPIRIT!

Go visit www.wishboneday.com and ...

Don't forget to wear yellow on Friday, May 6th!

Arms full of LOVE!

Yes, my arms are full of Love! Mya and Layla!

Oh dear... No, No Layla, don't even think about it!

Layla the cabaret girl! "They call her LAYLA., she's a showgirl....'

Mommy and Mya love the water~

Mya borrows a headband from the showgirl!

Layla Lynn pretty in pink!

Cayden plays the big boy games with Papa and "Uncle" Rick!

Tegan gets Dave up early to do some work in the garage! Newly painted walls then they paint and speckle the floor! It looks great!

A girl in a box~

Cayden wants to feed Layla but she has another idea...
She likes to hold the bottle herself now!

She really has a "hand" on this task!

Mya Brynn models another of Layla's pretty headbands!

Cayden, Bri and Mya~ enjoying their vacation!

Cayden loves the "little pool"~
He is busy, busy, busy~ swimming every day!

I love him~

Oh my...
a baby on a waterfall! Look out baby!
Who is responsible for this child?
No worries... Mommy was under water holding her!

Pedicure time for the baby girls. Bri painted Mya's toes so Tegan did Layla's too!

Look! She likes having her nails done!

Time for some pictures!
Mya says, "This gets old, doesn't it Layla? They paint our toes just to take pictures"
Layla says, " Yep."
"Next they will want to paint our fingernails too!"
"That's a funny thought~ I won't hold still for that!"
"Ha", says Layla, "Me either!"

Fun in the stroller...
The girls say..." Look at our cute toes! "

Lunch at the pool!

Game nights!

On the shuttle to the beach~ Can you guess what we saw?

That's right, DOLPHINS! One came right up to the side of the boat and looked right at Cayden! Still have more to share!
