What's been happening...

Sorry for the delay in posts, but we have had internet problems at the house and I just finally fixed them (knock on some wood)...because if they aren't fixed, I will be throwing the wireless router out the window soon. Anyways...

Since the last post, Caden got a haircut in the big boy airplane chair! (I feel like I have to call everything "big boy" lately as to distinguish Caden from the babies that he sees.) He usually just sits in my lap to get a haircut, but we decided to see if he would brave it in the airplane chair alone! This is also about his 10th haircut!



Another day, Caden and I were at home and I was vaccumming. I turned it off to go do something and this is what I found...



His daddy cleans out the vaccum all of the time (he says that Riley and I shed too much and stop the brushes from spinning), so Caden flipped the vaccum over and started pulling hair from the vaccum, ran to the trashcan to throw it away and kept going back for more...too cute. I just love him!

We went to Mule Day, a craft show/festival in South Georgia. Caden LOVED the ponies. Actually loved is an understatement, he did not want to get off of the ponies and did not want to leave them at mule day. It took a bribe with a funnel cake to get him off of the pony...and that was a powdered sugar mess!




And of course before we left, we held a furry chicken and pet a pig!




Then Caden had the best seat in the house to look at the parade...on top of daddy's shoulders. He just smiled and layed his head on daddy's. It just melted my heart..



Also, since the last post, Caden had tubes put in his ears. He was so brave! I think mommy and daddy were more nervous than Caden! He waved good bye to us and went back with the nurses to the OR. Daddy barely had time to go get us coffee before the Doctor was coming back to tell us the surgery was done and everything went well! It was just sad to see our little boy drunk off of the anesthesia. He was very grumpy when he woke up and only wanted to be held like a baby.

He and daddy watched some YouTube videos on our iPad before surgery...



Mommy felt so bad that he couldn't eat after midnight before his surgery, that I took him to TCBY. He loved it. He did not let his TCBY out of his eyesight!



The tubes have really made an improvement in Caden's speech and he talks so much more lately! Poor baby was retaining fluid in his ears even when he wasn't sick.

In other big news, Caden started escaping his crib...we would see this little shadow in the doorway to our room a few times a night just standing there...So, we had to convert his crib to a toddler bed (or big boy bed as we call it). It took a few weeks, but he now knows that he has to stay in his bed when he goes to sleep. I guess I could also blame my lack of blogposting on my lack of sleep there for a few weeks...

He's getting too big, too fast :(.
