I SCREAM, YOU SCREAM.......

We all scream for ICE CREAM......everyone except Cade that is. Is it possible for a child not to like ice cream? I thought maybe my guy doesn't like the coldness of it but it was out at room temp for a good while before I let him try it. Cade cracked me up with his facial expressions during his first experience with this treat. He didn't think it was so funny....but he did start to warm up to this weird, new food...a little bit anyway. He definitely didn't get upset when I put it back in the freezer. I bet he will end up having a crazy obsession with ice cream but it doesn't look like it will be anytime soon!

Daddy & Cade

Cade's new workout for mommy!!!

Sooooo....when did changing a diaper burn more calories than mowing the lawn??? When Cade discovered the sides of his changing table....that's when! He literally makes me out of breath when I have to change his diaper. He is a maniac now and it's not just when he is on his changing table...though that is how it began. I have tried to change him on the floor as well and to no surprise, he struggles to turn to his left, right, up, down, back.......any way that he can get out of staying still, he is trying.....and he thinks it is funny.....the funny part is spying on Justin attempting to handle this new little phase. To give you an idea on how well daddy handles, Cade was crawling around this weekend and his diaper inch by inch began to follow him...sliding off of his little rear. Sorry, no pic of that. I was laughing too hard.

Slacker!

I know......I have definitely been slacking on Cade's blog the past few weeks! I'm telling you, finding enough time in the day to breathe is a good day for me much less finding time to download all of the 100's of new pics that I have taken. I promise though that I will try my best to work on those downloads this weekend so you guys can see my little man @ 9 months. Too cute!

9 MONTH STATS

Cade had his 9 month check-up on Friday:

Weight: 20lbs13oz
Height: 28in

All went well. His doctor said that she was amazed at how interactive he is. He was talking nonstop and grabbing anything that he could get his hands on. He definitely keeps me on my toes!

Snow Days, snow days.........

Here is a picture of Cade's first snow day. It snowed about 2 inches and stayed here for about 12 hours.........that is a record here! Cade wasn't too sure what to think about the snow. We were only out there for about 2 mins because he kept taking his mittens off and going face first into the snow.

Speed Racer.....

My little man is definitely on the go now. He has gotten sooooo fast with his crawling. He cracks me up because he doesn't bend his arms when he is crawling. He looks like a stick man with no elbows and his arms swing out side to side so that he is able to move.....he can't just move them front to back b/c he DOESN'T bend his little arms at all!!! So funny. One day when I am not technologically challenged I will attempt to post a video.

This weekend also brought on a new characteristic in Cade......it was so funny, cute, adorable, etc the first couple of days that he did it but now.......really??? Cade has started to scream at the top of his lungs for no reason at all.....ALL DAY LONG!!! I love you buddy but again.....really??? He isn't crying and he isn't sad......nothing is hurting him and his needs have all been met so what's the deal? And the worst part (funny part) is that when I tell him "no sir or eh....eh" he thinks it is so funny....so then he screams just to hear me tell him no. I am afraid that they will kick him out of daycare if this continues.......can a baby get kicked out of daycare???? They told my mother-in-law that Cade gets his entire class screaming. He starts it and the others follow.
