KUD TURNED 4!

Kud is just one of Kaden's nick names and he answers to it just the same.  Auntie Pam and Uncle Phil were very generous and offered to have a pool party for his 4th day.  We celebrated a week early knowing I'd be having chemo just days before his real b-day.

His perfect little face with his perfect little smile melts our heart everyday!

I'm coming to the realization that Kud is not my lil' guy anymore.  He's so big and tall, he's so smart, he has loved learning to read and his sweet imagination is so creative and amazes me all the time. 

The cousin's decided to dress up Kaden as a pirate and have a treasure hunt for him in the backyard.  That's not a fake beard on his chin it's his left over chocolate from his cupcake!

One of Kaden's b-day requests was to get new rain boots!  So easily satisfied!

On Kaden's actual birthday, unfortunately I was recovering from my chemo, but fortunately he was spoiled by the Mowers with a fun filled over-nighter.

Auntie took Kaden on a shopping spree while I was sick to spend his b-day money and Auntie's money too!   He can get Auntie Heather to do nearly anything!

A week after Kaden's b-day we took him on his special Mommy-Daddy movie date to see Madagascar 3.  He had us all to himself and we loved every minute!
