15 Months

Happy 15 Months little BUG!
On 10/21/10 you turned 15 months old! You have learned so much this past month! Mommy and Daddy can hardly believe how fast you catch on to things and how much you already know. You are the BIGGEST BLESSING from our Lord next to our Salvation and we are so comforted in knowing that you belong to us through Christ. We are continually reminded of God's love for us through you! My son, I say it every month and I will say it again, it seems like only yesterday we were preparing for your arrival. Now that you are here I don't remember life without you, nor would I want a life without you. You are doing so much this month and you are into EVERYTHING! Zackary was with us on your 15 month bday and the time just got away from mommy and I didn't take any pictures of you besides this one.
Friday, 10/22/10 was your 15 month check up. This is you in the parking lot of Dr. Ferguson's office. You look so grown up in the front seat. However, you still sit in the back seat with your car seat facing backwards because that is what Dr. Ferguson suggests and mommy and daddy will do whatever is best for our Buggy D!
lol you have so many silly faces my love!

I hope your love for books continues!

Like I said before, you are into everything!
You love to mess up the paper!

and to play with magnets, we have some at home on the fridge and dish washer for you.

Our poor little man got 5 shots including the flu shot! You were such a little trooper and I was so proud of you. Daddy wasn't able to come to this visit so he said a prayer for you since he knew you were getting so many shots.
You weigh 23lbs 10oz (45%) and are 32 inches (80%) tall.
You are still in a size 4 diaper and you wear 12-18 month clothes. You are eating everything imaginable. Your favorites are chicken tenders and macaroni and cheese. Your favorite drinks are the blue colored Powerade and Vitamin water XXX. You continue to run around everywhere and love to go outside. It is so cute, I tell you we have to have shoes on to go outside and you will bring mommy hers (which are usually right by the door) and your shoes. We then put them on, you are able to put your crocs on without the backs so mommy has to put the backs behind your heels for you. You are learning to say "out" when you want to go outside. Your vocabulary is still very limited, but it is expanding. You are saying:
"Mama" and "Mom" for me and you know the difference between me and daddy and you can say "Mama" when you want me and "Dada" when you want your daddy. You also call him "Da-Ya." You call your G-Pa "Ya-ya" and I'm not sure where that started but it sure is cute. You say "Kee" for Kitty, you love Tiki (the kitty) and all the puppies at Granny and Granpa's house. You shake your index finger at the puppies and try to say "hush puppies," Granny taught you that. You are also still saying "Uh-Oh" ALL the time. You say "Hi" to most new people and love to talk on the phone! You are very polite and say "Tank to" which is your way of saying Thank you and your kindness continues to melt my heart! You love your Mum-Mums and still ask for them by name. And while you don't say NO, you do say "Uh Uh" when you don't want something. I'll ask you Caden can mommy have a kiss and you will either give me one or say "uh uh." You do this when you don't want to eat or when you don't want something. You can also say "Uh Huh" when you do want something and "Mor" when you want more. That is your newest word and it is so cute! I love to hear you say "Mor." You are a very independent little boy and very sure of what you do and don't want! You know how to turn the light on and off, but still aren't saying the words. You put your shoes up in the bottom drawer of your dresser where they go and it is super cute. You will play in your room by yourself, but you love company too. You now have 3, yes only 3 teeth. Your bottom 2 and one of your top one, but Dr. Ferg said 3 at the top appear to be on there way. We still haven't cut your long locks. Daddy and I have talked about having your hair cut, but are in no hurry to go out and do it. Several people have called you a she recently but soon realize that they made a mistake and figure out you are a very pretty little boy! Again I tell you we are so blessed to have you and you are one very loved little boy!! Happy 15 months my son! Daddy and I are looking forward to every new day with you!
All our love,
Mama and Dada!

Love never fails...

For the word of the Lord is right and true; He is faithful in all He does.

Playdate with Cousin Kaeding!

Kristy and Kaeding came over last week to hang out and for the boys to play together! They seemed to have a good time together. Caden is 9 months older than Kaeding so we have to make sure he isn't to rough around him. He loves to give sugars and gave Kaeding quite a few. I think he even tried to bite his head which was quickly remedied. Here they are having a good time! Enjoy the pics!

Kaeding enjoyed Caden's workbench and Caden enjoyed trying to take it from him!


David even had a good time playing with the two boys!
lol I love this one!
Kaeding is trying to get his attention and Caden is just smiling at him!
Caden loves his gumball machine!

...they believed His promises
and sang His praise.

Shopping!

Last Monday Brittany and I took the kids shopping for an outfit for their pumpkin patch pictures that we had a friend of mine take last Wednesday. I of course missed the picture where they were holding hands, but this was them at Old Navy!
Rylee and Brittany had to leave so me and Caden and the girls ventured on over to the mall to continue on our search for Caden's perfect outfit. They wanted to ride the "roller coaster."
Caden and the girls had fun!
When 5 o'clock came and Daddy got off, he met us at the mall for dinner at Chick-Fil-A and some mall fun! In the Halloween Shop!
lol Caden wasn't sure what to think!
Wonder who this is?!

Finally, be strengthened by the LORD and by His vast strength.

Ephesians 6:10
