My Sweet Babe...

I have been so busy doing pictures for everyone else that I decided I needed to do Cade's 18 month pictures. It was kind of a last minute thing...and let me tell you, trying to take pictures of an 18-month old by yourself is for the birds! I was pretty surprised that I got some good ones...here they are...he is so HANDSOME (yes I am bias!!)


Love this one!


Cade was so excited that I was actually letting him play with this airplane! We keep on a shelf in his room!!


This one makes me giggle every time I see it! This is the face you get when you ask him to "smile"


By far our favorite...he is ALWAYS pulling this face!!

I can't believe my baby is 18 months old! Where does time go? He is so much fun and we love him so much!!

Love him...

I had the great priviledge of taking this sweet little boys pictures. We love Kove so much at our house...Cade thinks he is the greatest thing ever!! With a little bit of candy "bribing" we were able to get some pretty cute shots...here is a little sneak peak for his mamma!!



Yes...check out the hair...I LOVE IT! I only wish that my child had half the amount of hair that Koven has!! Thanks guys for letting me take your pictures, it was a blast!

Sneak PEAK...

I am just posting a small sneak peak for two very patient ladies! Thank you girls for waiting so patiently as I edit your way cute pictures!!!

How beautiful is she?? We were a little worried about the weather but it totally worked in our favor...what a fun, fun bride to work with!!



Isn't this little stinker so cute...we love him so much and I had a blast taking his pictures...its not too often that a 7 month old won't stop smiling for you!!


Now I really have to finish editing these shoots!!

Updates....

So I have promised some of our peeps that can't come see our new house because they are off in far distant lands, that I would post some pics of it. We are loving our new house. We learned alot in building our home, but for the most part it was a good experience and we love the end result!

Its crazy that your house goes from this:

To this....

And FINALLY to this....


And if moving and trying to get settled isn't enough we decided that we would get a new puppy! Brock has wanted a pup for a while so he was really excited...I can't say that I was but now that we have him...we all love him. He is a good puppy and he and Cade get along really well...the first things that Cade asks for when he gets up in the morning is Boston (or as Cade says it BaBa or Bostie)...craziness at the Bateman household!


Yes, Cade would sleep and eat with Boston everyday if we would let him...parents always ruin all the fun!!

Its about flippin' time...

So we FINALLY got internet at our house...after a very long battle with a certain company that I absolutely, to say the least HATE...we have INTERNET. We are so glad to be back in cyber-space! So here is a picture of my sweet boy...who we love so much! Updates and pics of the house to come!!

Still here...

To all my friends out in blogger world, cyber-space...whatever you want to call it...yes we are still your blogger friends, however we are on hyatis for a short time but promise to be back shortly. We currently have no home, therefore we have no internet, therefore we have no computer, therefore we cannot blog...are you following me now?!? We hope to be back on the blogging-bandwagon by the middle of November...please wish us luck on the way back to "normal life!"

Our Summer...In Review

Holy crap...where did the summer go? I can't believe that school has started and that we are quickly approaching fall! Once again, I have totally let my blog fall behind, this in-turn means a long post with lots of pictures...consider yourself warned!

Cade is totally loving table foods...as you can see!


Yes, I lost the fight...I had the wonderful priviledge of riding on the float with my star!! He did great..even though he jumped on my lap the entire parade route!


This is the best thing that has happened this summer! Cade finally sleeps in his OWN bed and sleeps the ENTIRE night...hallaluja!! I swore I would never put my baby in bed with me...learned quick...NEVER SAY NEVER!!


We have done alot of boating and fishing this summer. Cade loves it and anyone that knows Cade...knows he loves to drive!! He spent the entire time on the boat..just driving! - Cheap entertainment!



We welcomed the two sweetest little babies to the Bateman family. It is a bad deal because they both make me a "little" baby hungry! Good thing they are close so that I can love on them and give them back!


This is sweet baby Gauge...sorry I don't have a better picture of him!


This is sweet baby Bridger! Cade is so excited to have lots of cousins on the Bateman side! Poor Ry she is quickly getting out numbered!


Loved the 4th of July! We just hung out! Cade loved the fireworks..it was un-eventful but lots of fun!


And finally...I decided to have some "professional" pictures of Cade! These are some of my favorites of the bunch!





That is our summer in a nutshell! Sorry it was so long...remember I warned you! I say I will be better about posting...but no promises when there is a child in the house!
