Kristy's Baby Shower for baby Kaeding

Kristy's baby shower was last Sunday! Her theme for the shower and the nursery is sock monkeys! We had a fun time making bibs for baby Kaeding, playing bingo, tasting baby food, and writing funny notes on diapers for her to read when she changes him. She got us cute little goody bags with Kaeding's name on them with chocolate dipped fortune cookies and other goodies in them! Kristy got lots of great things for the baby and we all had a great time! Enjoy the pics!

Kinlee won some balloon game they played!

The other night I was doing things around the house after we gave Caden his bath and I walked into his room to find this!... Bailee was reading him a bedtime story! So sweet!

He really looks like he was enjoying himself!!

Gift from Granpa!

A big THANK YOU to Granpa (David's dad) for Caden's new toy box! He spent many hours to make it for him special! It is gorgeous and Mommy and Daddy love it too! He stained it to match his nursery furniture and the box frames he previously made for his room! Caden Loves it!

He even had a little surprise in it for Caden!
Caden found the surprise! His new bear!

Having fun in his toy box!
Thanks Granpa! I Love both the bear and the toy box!

7 months

On Sunday February 21, Caden turned 7 months old! It's hard to believe he is 7 months already! I can honestly say that it feels like yesterday was the night before he was born and David and I were laying in bed thinking how much our lives were going to be changed. Nothing we every imagined could prepare us for this! Caden has enriched our lives in ways we never thought possible! When I went back to work people would ask me "How is being a mom?" My reply was "It's better than anything I ever imagined possible!" And each day gets better and better! I love to see him grow, do new things, and his smile melts my heart every time! I always new I would LOVE being a mom, but I NEVER knew I would love it like this! :) Sunday we started our day off with Church, then our usual lunch with Granny, Granpa, Aunt Angie and Uncle Brandon, then Kristy's baby shower and home in time before Mommy had to leave for work. Caden was running a low grade fever that day and was a little under the weather as you can see in the pics but we still had a good day!

Ready for Church in my new car seat and sun glasses!

(Lots of thanks to Granny and Granpa for my new carseat!)

The puppy on his glasses matched the one on his shirt! With Daddy! Poor Bug was sick, but so cute! (I'm obviously partial!) : )Mom and the Buggy D! I love my boys!

Sunday was so pretty Frank, Liza and the kids came over to ride their dirt bike and the 4 wheeler, then inside to play with cousin Caden! He wouldn't look at me for the pic!

Cousin Angel and Caden!

Car ride time!

Feeling better after a little Tylenol!

Sweet Sweet Bug! lol I was at work by this time, but my guess is Cousin Zack took this close up of Caden!

LOVE those baby blue eyes!! Can we say future heart throb?!!

All bathed and ready for bed!

Caden's 7 month Happenings:

• He's crawling the army/ swim crawl!
• He continues to roll over and over.
• He will repeat noises we make.
• He is trying to talk! Babbles ALL the time!
• Growing like a weed! My best guess is he is at the 20 pound mark
• Eating 1st and 2nd foods! Loves Peas and carrots (who would have thought) and is still breast feeding although less obviously :)
• He's wearing 6-9 month clothes
• Still a Daddy's boy
• Loves his baths
• Growing out of liking his swing :(
• Wants to be the center of attention ALL the time!

For He knows how we are formed, He remembers that we are dust.
