Fun Lunch with Daddy, backsplash, BIG news from the boys, fun with Daddy!

We met Cass on his lunch break one day at the park and had Taco Casa and let the boys play in the fountains! Calder was terrified and hung out by us but Caden had a blast!!!

Running through the grass at the park! They love to chase each other!
Caden wasn't so sure about going to get the ball but he finally did it! We try hard to encourage him to overcome his fears and once he does, he's good to go! It's just helping get his confidence up!



Daddy watching his boys play!!! (and hanging out with Mommy!)

Caden running around!

Our new tile backsplash and under counter lights Cass worked hard on! He did a great job! It was his first backsplash and I think it looks great! We had the under counter lights in our house in Macon and have missed them. Since we love being in the kitchen, we did a mini kitchen makeover and had fun! Now we just need a new light over the kitchen table!
We painted the walls green! (well really Cass painted the walls green!)

Backsplash!
Caden and Calder were excited to announce that they are going to be BIG BROTHERS in December!!! We are excited and praying that things continue to go well. We weren't going to tell so soon but Caden started announcing it at church. He is so excited to have another baby at our house and he's hoping it's a girl! We're happy with whatever God chooses to give us! Will we have Chandler Bates "Bates" or Tilly Bates???? We'll have to wait until July to find out!!!
They both wanted a turn to hold the sign!
We got the Daddle out the other night. I don't think Calder had been on it before and it's always a big hit! Cass gets strapped up and they ride all over the house (his poor knees!). Great memories, though!



Calder loving the Daddle!!!
Our tomato plants and strawberry plant!

Herbs! Basil, Oregano and Parsley!
Our new hydrangea!!! We made a visit to The Plant Lady and had fun planting some things this afternoon!
Dropped his pants...don't know why because we don't let him do that much!
Helping Daddy plant the hydrangea!
He is a great helper!
Caden driving the hydrangea to the back yard on their gator!
Watering the tomatoes!
Relaxing in the sun on a bag of dirt!
I asked Caden to put the tater tots in the pan and his OCD self did this! Great job, buddy! I got rid of LOTS before we cooked them! (that's a little too many for 4 people!)
Playing in the tree at the church before church one Wednesday night!
Love it!
Having fun! Love Calder's constant smile!

Calder wanted to sit in the tree, too!
We went to Mr. Bills for dinner and Caden didn't eat much so he had to finish before he could play!

Daddy and Calder!
Sweet Caden with his placemats and markers ready to go eat!
