Waving Hello

The second I stopped filming the video above, Kaden began to wave. I couldn't resist starting the video again to show everyone.

Hanging Out

New Toy

We got Kaden a new toy that he has enjoyed using at Grandma B. As you can see he has had just as much enjoyment playing with the box as he has had with the toy.

"No!"

As Kaden has been getting more mobile he is getting into more and more places and therefore hearing the words "no" a lot more. He has perfected the head motion to go with it."
You can also see his two top teeth in the video.

Happy Mothers Day... and 10 Month Birthday

Kaden and I shared Mother's day and his 10 month birthday.
Contrary to what his pediatrician said it has been over 4 weeks since our visit and Kaden only has had one tooth come in. Unfortunately his 10 month birthday was a bad teething day and he wasn't feeling to great. We had Adam's family over for a Mother's Day dinner. It was a nice evening and the first time everyone has been able to get together in over a year.

Happy 6th Birthday Cousin Spencer

Yesterday we went to a birthday party for Spencer, one of Kaden's second cousins. Lot's of fun games that Kaden wanted to play with... but just isn't big enough yet.

Happy 9 Months!

Today Kaden turned 9 months old. We celebrated with a trip to the pediatrician due to a suspicion that he had an ear infection. We have been looking for his bottom teeth to come in to explain why he is upset, but there has been no sign that they are on there way. With increased ear pulling and middle of the night inconsolable crying we decided maybe he had an ear infection. Having been told the bottom teeth come in first we didn't see the swelling he was having from his top 4 teeth trying to break through. His pediatrician said he will have 6 teeth within the next 3 weeks. Poor guy... not the way you want to celebrate a birthday.
Also, today a stranger we met in the elevator asked if Kaden is 2 years old. I know he is big for a 9 month old, but 2 seems a little extreme. He weighed in today at 21 pounds.
Look for future pictures to have a mouth full of teeth.
