6 months flew by....

We had Caden's 6 month check-up last week. It's so sad that our little baby is growing up so fast. We just love him so much!!

Length- 26 1/2 inches

Weight- 16 lb 8 oz

Head Circum- 17 inches

He dropped to the 50th percentile for length this time and 35-50th for weight and head. Just a little guy!

Here's what's new with Caden:

- He just cut his 2 bottom teeth

- He's still really trying hard to crawl. Always up on all 4's.. just hasn't figured out the concept of moving forward yet.

- He LOVES to eat! Pretty much everything except not a big fan of green beans or peas, but he'll eat them if we mix a little carrots in.

- He has really been getting into jumping the past couple of weeks. Before he would just stand in his jumperoo and check out the toys, but now he jumps like crazy.

Here is a picture with his buddy Brayden at their playdate. They were very interested in grabbing each other! Brayden is 10 days younger than Caden .

New toys

Caden is now really starting to push-up on all 4's. He sometimes will even bring one leg up under him like he's starting to crawl. We don't think its going to be too much longer before he's moving! He's also starting to sit-up now too. His favorite toys are "Raffie" his giraffe teether and his monkey, which you can see below. The probem is that they are Riley's favorites too :) We are also teaching Caden to cook our dinners.

Where's Caden???

Caden hit the motherload for Christmas presents! We took the picture prematurely though- he still got more toys from aunts and uncles. He is set on toys for a long time! Some may say spoiled but we say extremely loved!

Spoiled already?

Neat Website

I came across Crafty Mom's website and ordered a few things as props for my photography business. Thought I would share with all of you, especially those of you that have girls. They have all kinds of different caps/beanies, flower clips, bows, tutus, headbands, diaper totes, and more for VERY cheap compared to what I've found on Ebay and Etsy.

Rolling Over

Here are a couple videos of Caden rolling over.

He wasn't quite as graceful in this one. Actually, we're not sure if he was trying to roll over or do a somersault!
