After a long but exciting day trip to San Antonio yesterday (which deserves its' very own blog), we decided to play hookie from church today and have a Sunday Fun Day... a day full of good old fashioned family fun! It quite honestly might have been one of my favorite days that we have spent as a family of three thus far! Much of my enjoyment came from this GORGEOUS weather... and by gorgeous I mean no triple digits... it is amazing how cool 96 degrees can feel! The weather has really been beating me down lately, so today was just what I needed to get that spring back in my step! What a blessing!
So we started Sunday Fun Day with a FULL family walk... the Cade-man, Max and Maci... before a yummy family breakfast at our bagel joint complete with a Cox-house-brewed cup of jo! YUMMO!! Then it was PLAY TIME!!! Caden had all sorts of tricks up his sleeve this morning. And it just so happens that we captured one of our favorites on camera! Shocker I know... the poor kid really isn't photographed enough!
Caden LOVES to crawl into his toy cubbies... clear them all out until they are empty and then crawl back out... watch him go...
In...
Getting the last few things out... making sure we were keeping track of his progress...
Startin' his turn back...
It's getting a little tight in these cubbies... time to get creative...
Tuck and roll into a tiny little ball... shimmy, shimmy, shimmy...
And PUSH...
Done... and...
Done... on to the next trick...
After a good morning nap it was POOL TIME...EXCELLENT... Bill and Ted anyone??
Daddy-Made-Mohawk...
Time for the baby pool... splash, splash... pat the water, Caden!! Good boy!!
Right next to the pool is the greatest little playground... the only one in the neighborhood with Caden-swings... which he loves!!
Since Daddy was with us today we decided to brave a few more things at the park... slides... mirrors... look-out points... what fun!
Not so sure about this one... Daddy was scared, but the Cade-man was bored... YAWN!
Daddy's a little tall for the playground...
YAY CADEN!!!
Where's Caden? Where's Caden?? THERE HE IS!!
He DID NOT LIKE the black playground floor on his little feetsies!! Poor thing!!
And he's really not a fan of sitting in the grass... which is hilarious to me! Our little outdoor boy hates the grass... I guess it is kind of itchy, especially in this drought!!
Back at the ranch... it was crazy hair hour...
Nothing like a little sunscreen and a goofy hat to royally mess up a guy's hairdo!
Before we went out and about this afternoon, Caden asked if we could help a brother out with the hair... so we found this great hat to cover the mess!! Hehe!!
Boy does he look like his daddy or what???
The reason for our afternoon outing was to purchase THIS... our very own Caden-swing!! YAY!!! I having been dreaming of the day when we could put up a swing in the backyard for Caden... and today was the day! I think I'm going to enjoy it more than Caden!!Although... Caden was a HUGE fan of it!
After dinner we went back out to the porch to relax before bedtime and he got SO relaxed that he went right to sleep... an amazing, amazing thing! Now, Caden is in bed and Justin is smoking a stogie and I'm drinking a can, yes I said can of Champagne (don't knock it until you try it... it is called Sophia... not bad for canned champagne!)... and life is good on the back porch of the Cox house!!
Happy Sunday!!!
