Linden turns 2!

In March, our sweet little boy turned 2. And he definitely has the attitude of a 2 year old! Now he is talking a lot more. He pretty much repeats anything you say. But for a long time he would only say, milk, mommy, and daddy. He loves to copy everything KaeLynn and Daniel are doing. He loves to wrestle and dance. He especially loves to be outside. He is a daddy's boy, and whenever Cavan goes on the tractor or the lawn mower, Linden is crying to go on. Linden gets so happy when daddy comes home. Today in church Linden got away from me in the pew and ran as fast as he could to the stand where Cavan was sitting. When I finally reached him to carry him away Linden reached out towards Cavan and cried "Daddy, Daddy!" I had to take Linden out of the chapel. It was so sad and adorable at the same time. Linden also loves our cat Maeling. He as says, "ah, mee mee" and pets her when she comes around. Right now he is fascinated with sharks. He is always saying shark, even when he doesn't see one. And if there is an airplane in the sky, Linden will for sure let you know, and will keep repeating "airplane" until you acknowledge he saw it.  Linden is by far the pickiest eater we have had. All he wants is to drink milk, and eat crackers or dry cereal. But if there is dessert, he is not picky at all. I end up having to starve him out to eat what we are eating. If he snacks at all he won't eat meals with us. Sometimes he will take a bite, and we get our hopes up that he will eat it, but then suddenly spits it out. He is a great sleeper and likes his bed to be filled with stuffed animals and is also a blanky lover. Linden brings so much joy to our family, and we just love him!










Spring Activities

This spring we did a lot of fun things. We reall like to go bike riding when the weather is cooler. We have  bike trailer for Linden, and he was was all content just sitting in his trailer going for a nice ride. We went to Gemini Springs. They have nice bike trails. We rode all the way to the lake and back.



Every year the kids school offers a reading program. If you read a certain amount of times, you get free tickets to a race. This year they offered free tickets to Supercross! We were so excited because we love Supercross. It ends up being  really late night, but it's worth it. Linden stayed with Meema because it's to late for him. The line to get out takes about an hour. Daniel fell asleep pretty much as soon as we got in the van. We did't get home until 1 am.
  




Miss KaeLynn got glasses! She has been complaining for a while about not being able to see far away. I finally took her in and sure enough she is nearsighted. When she put on her new glasses, she said," Whoa! I can see!" She does great wearing them, and better yet, no more complaining she can't see!

We wanted to go explore a new State Park and found a great one! Washington Oaks Garden. It was so beautiful!






Bike Week 2019

We had another good year at Bike Week. We started out in Daytona, visiting all the venues, testing out different types of motorcycles and looking at all the cool bikes. We then drove to St. Augustine to spend the night there. We added another couple to "our gang", the Hanks. We also thought it would be fun to get henna tattoos, and of course Gary and Cavan decided to get tramp stamps. They are so weird! There was a huge wood motorcycle built for Bike Week that you can go and sign. Then they burn it it at the end of the week and have a huge bon fire. We had a lot of fun!
