My little stud

I realized I forgot to post this cute pic of Caiden and his buddies, the Wiseman boys, and also the video of Caiden wakeboarding. We took them out a couple of weeks ago and Caiden wanted to show them how he has learned to get up on the wakeboard. The video cracks me up. At first it appears that he gets up and then falls, but if you watch closely as soon as he has achieved standing position, he plugs his nose, lets go of the rope, and falls at his own free will. Hilarious!

On another note, we have officially completed the first week of school for both Caiden and Paige. Why is it that during the summer they were up by 6:30 in the morning (sometimes earlier) and now that school has started they sleep in and I have to literally wake them?? I don't get it. Anyway, Paige has absolutely LOVED preschool and Caiden is adjusting to going to school everyday pretty well. It is never a fight (which I'm grateful for) but his enthusiasm is a bit less than it was last year for preschool. However, when I pick him up he is all smiles. I'm so proud of both of them. Now, on another note (again), one week from today Casey and I will be leaving for our 7 day cruise in the southern caribbean!!! Wahoo! I can not wait and it is all I can think about and I'm having trouble focusing on anything else. Caiden and Paige are also just as excited because they get to stay with their Grandma and Grandpa Gubler while we are gone, and in their eyes there is no funner place than that. 7 more days!! One more big wahoo for the cruise. WAHOOOOOO!!!!!!
