it's been a while

soo false alarm with that last post lol no teeth have popped up yet. but holy cow kaden sure has grown up. I still don't know where my cord for my camera is SO no pics, but i thought an update was in need. In four months, just FOUR months, he will be 1 year old!!!! time sure does fly. Here's the down low on kaden:
-army crawls/scoots around. not quite to the crawling stage yet.
-loves his fruits and veggies (he will eat anything!)
-can sit up by himself now
-he has gotten pretty good at standing (with support of course)
-he loves to groove
-he is now at the stage where he will try and imitate you :) love it!
-absolutely loves to make really strange sounds (squeaking, grunting, growling, whatever lol)

and lots LOTS more!!! I can't believe how fast he has grown up. I sure do love that goofy kid. I love my little family. I'm happy and content, I couldn't ask for anything more.

It has begun... *dun dun dun*

The teething journey has just begun! and let me tell you...i am NOT excited. Kaden is normally a happy little guy, but one little tooth can make it all come crashing down. We have found out though that he likes apples. We cut a big chunk of apple off and give it to him and he will sit and chomp on it forever. In fact, when the apple gets taken away, Kaden sure does know how to through a tantrum. So Tylenol and apples are going to help us keep our sanity (oh and the grandparents tee hee)
Today was Kaden's first real outside experience. The sun was shining and warm, no wind was blowing and squirrels were playing. I took him out and he absolutely loved it. When I took him inside he started to freak out, so I opened the door and said "outside?" and he started laughing. I loved it :)

HOLY COW!

Wow!!! It has been a super long time. I'm sorry about no updates. I have lost the cord for my camera to hook up to my computer, so until I find a solution. . .no pictures :( But I can update you by word. Kaden is so big now. He weighs somewhere around 16 lbs now. I can't believe how fast time goes by when you have a kid. 5 Months!!! He rolls around all over the place, sits up pretty good with a little bit of support, started to eat his veggies, and he "talks" all the time. There is only one piece of news that is slightly bad...he has started occupational therapy. He has something called torticollis, it's where his neck/head favor one side and the muscles tighten up and stay like that. So now we have to massage his muscles and stretch them out for him. I guess it is pretty common though and it isn't serious. Other than that he is doing fabulous!
Marcus is almost done with his first semester of school, and he has done a pretty good job. I am so proud of him for going to school and pursuing a career. And as for me, I'm just enjoying life.
