Sweet baby is OUT!


So sweet praying in the morning


How adorable is Wells Grey?


Cutie requested a shower! Big boy Pman.


You are welcome, Mrs. Porter Cadwallader!


I spy 3 boys! Can you find Wells?! :)


Kit was vacuuming the dog off here. Needless to see we are "those" crazy neighbors hahaha!!


Henry may very well become a cross country runner. He is very good at it!

We had a fun weekend with the Wx fam! Friday we enjoyed a fun walk about the neighborhood and going on a little turtle hunt.








Saturday was "Nature Fest" in our neighborhood. It was huge! Animals, camel rides, little train, alligators, remote control boats, armadillo petting, farmers market, face painting,food trucks, etc...lots to see and do. It was overcast that morning which was so nice...until it cut loose and poured!! Every single one of us were soaked to the bone walking...I mean running home! Ha! Good times! :)


























Sunday morning we got up and had the rare opportunity to see my niece dive in a meet not far from our house. That was so fun and E did a great job!!





Thank you Wx fam for another fun weekend! :-)

Project Friday! {black door}

Happy Friday! 

Just posting another little project we've done. Our house has lots of black accents especially in the kitchen! The pantry door was white and the same as all the doors throughout our house but it was sticking out like a sore thumb in the kitchen. So I decided to paint the door. It calmed down that corner of the kitchen and we like it! 

I will admit I was very nervous to paint a perfectly good door but sometimes you just gotta step out and take the risk, right? :)

Wordless Wednesday

Before & After {entry way}

Well, here is our first project in the new house. I thought the best place to start was the entry way. Our house has a lot of black accents on both the outside and the inside.


So, black was speaking to me when thinking about this space. This picture was my inspiration

Kit taped off the stripes for me and I rolled the stripes on. The best part of something like this is that the cost was paint. Everything else I had! Wait, I take that back. The mirror is a recent purchase. But, everything else I had! Ha!
Before & After





We love it!
Happy Monday!! :-)

Paddle boating

Yesterday in between house projects and yard work, the boys went paddle boating. Kit said he got a good workout in and the boys were mesmerized!! :-)

11 months

He's 11 months and in one way it doesn't seem possible and in another I feel like he's been with us always. I know I'm behind on monthly posts. But the pictures are stuck on my camera and the posts have been written so when I can combine the two, I'll get them added. Right now tho he's at such a cute stage. Into EVERYthing, super smiley, trying to climb and loves to dance anytime you put in some music. He's learned to scream when he doesn't want a brother to take away a toy, tries to keep up with them but will also just stare at them trying to figure out his crazy brothers. He's a cuddler and a pro at feeding himself now.


We love you, Sweet Wells!

A week in San Antonio

Last week Kit had an entire week of travel for work. The boys & I decided to pack up & head to my sisters for the week. I'm so glad we did! It made the week go faster & we are so excited to be near family!!! My nephew had a big hiking trip at the end of the week so the boys loved trying on the backpack and going to a few stores to finish getting a few items he needed...boy heaven!





We even got to have lunch with C&E at school one day! The boys thought they were BIG stuff :).


The bluebonnets are so beautiful we just had to snap of pic of dubs in the bluebonnets!


We got to go to Trinity University's campus to watch E at diving practice. Porter says he wants to dive someday! :)


Of course what would the week be without a trip or two or three...to Target! Ha!!


Having too much fun at REI


Playing at the park one night...Wells is a good kisser! :-)


It's been a month now since we've lived in the house and I'm finally getting the itch to start decorating and making the house more ours! Hopefully we'll get a few projects done soon and I'll start posting pics :) {beautiful tulips provided by the hubs}.


Kit has traveled every week since we've moved but THIS week he's scheduled to be home every night and we are all SO excited about that!!!

P {just because!}

He isn't the oldest, he isn't the youngest but one thing is for sure...there is only ONE Porter. He's energetic and giggly, silly and loud, passionate and fiery, love able and charming, sweet and a little dare devil.
Pman, Sweet P, Poe, Poor Poor, Porter Pie, Porter the Pumpkin eater, Pecan Porter, Porter Patrol, PRC,
You keep us laughing, praying on our knees longer


and the ER on speed dial....:).
Love you so much P diddly doo,
Momma

Happy Easter from the Cad Crew!

So, I've started writing this post too many times to count. I know there hasn't been too many posts lately but I think it's safe to say there is always an adjustment period when moving and we still just have some things and routines to get figured out. It's been busy and yet boring for everyone that we just keep working at getting some sort of "normal" figure out! :-).
Anyway, while we do that and posts may be lacking...here are some pics from Easter. We had a great time and enjoyed the perk of driving only 3 hours to my sisters for the weekend! We ended up staying until last night because Kit had meetings in San Antonio all day Tuesday so that made it fun the boys and I could hang out with them instead of being at home! We had a great day celebrating our risen Savior! And...I knew better than to try for that "perfect" family picture. Isn't going to happen anytime soon! ;)
