Cade = 10 months

I say this every time I blog but Cade you are so busy.  You are fast too.  The other day I walked away for 1 min, you crawled into the bathroom, pulled all the toilet paper off the roll and were sitting in the middle of it so proud of yourself.  Later you pulled down the curtains playing peek a boo.  You eat just about everything we eat.  I can get you to eat baby food if you have your own spoon in your hand but other than that you want to feed yourself.  You still nurse though out the day and even at night.  I wish you would sleep all night but you wake up at least once to eat.  You will throw a fit if I don't nurse you.  You walk along the furniture.  You are a very good climber too.  You will climb onto the fireplace or on the little table and just sit up there.  You are really trying to talk.  You say Mama, Da, Hi, Bye, dog, Cash, bird, hello when you put the phone to your ear and probably more.  You will point at things when we show them to you ("see the birds" and you point and say "bird"). Your "bird" isn't perfectly clear but we know what you are saying.  You blow kisses and give kisses when asked.   You put everything in your mouth.  You still just have 5 teeth but a 6th one has been trying to pop through for a while.  I think you weigh about 20 lbs.  We love you so much Little Man.

Pinkalicious Birthday Party

Kaley had a Pinkalicious party in honor of her favorite book.  We had pink everywhere. 

Happy 3rd Birthday Kaley Rose

(Sorry this is so late, we just moved)

June 3-
  Kaley you are the most beautiful little girl both inside and out.  I think your favorite thing right now is playing dress up, in a tutu of course, and then you dance around.  You enjoy doing just about everything as long as you are the boss.  You are a great help with Cade and love to practice taking care of all your baby dolls.  You help clean up and love to point out when your brother makes a mess.  You are so smart and pay attention to everything.  You make us so happy.  We love you Kaley Rose!!

Cade = 9 months

Cade, you are so busy all the time(it was torture to get you to sit still long enough for a picture).  You still wake up a couple times at night to nurse, I am sure it is a habit I just need to break.  You eat three meals of baby food a day but love any kind of finger food you can get.  You still nurse throughout the day.  You pull up on everything and walk along.  You have climbed up on Kaley's two-step step stool and stood right up to the counter. I love it when you crawl to me, get up on your knees and lift your hands for me to pick you up.  You wave hi and bye and will say it too.  You also say "mama" and dad"  You have 3 top teeth and 2 bottom teeth.  You think your sister is hilarious.  You usually smile at everyone but occasionally will give the shy head.   You love to pull all the toys out of the baskets.  My favorite is when you throw them backwards over your shoulder. We love you so much.

Cade = 8 months

Cade, you are 8 months old and so busy.  You are still crawling and starting to pull up on things.  You cry when we leave the room and then follow us.  You love to eat puffs because you can do it by yourself.  I think you are trying to make the sign for "more" but it still looks like clapping.  You enjoy eating your baby food and still nurse about 5 times a day.  I am not sure why you get up during the night to nurse, but I am ready for that phase to end.  You still think your sister is the greatest although she gets very frustrated with you.  She liked it better when she could pick what toys you got to play with.  You take a long nap and a short nap but you hate to miss out on anything that might be going on (and there is a lot going on lately.) You put everything in your mouth and you can find things that I have never seen before. You can say "Dada" along with all the other noises.  You have two teeth on the bottom but do not like to let anyone see them. You love to play in the cabinet with the plastic containers.  You pull them all out and just push them around the kitchen floor.  That is the only cabinet you can get into but you try the others every day just to make sure.   We have been going back and forth to Houston and you do so good in the car.  You sleep and talk to Kaley or just play with your toys.  We are so blessed to have you in our lives,  we love you so much.
