Thanksgiving photos

My friend Catherine came to enjoy Thanksgiving with us. It was a lot of fun and a lot of work! Everything was pretty much successful though so we enjoyed it. Kaden has started stumbling walking. He will occasionally take three to five steps at a time. He is very cautious about walking on his own and usually begs for a finger instead of going on his own. He loves pushing things around- especially his stroller. He can go pretty fast too!

Sorry it's been so long

Kaden on the Plane



Kaden as the center of attention


I'm supposed to be switching my blog to another site but it's become complicated so here are some recent photos to tide you over.

we are on vacation

We are loving Seattle! Perfect weather for us- 70s and sunny. Not cold enough for Matt though. Kaden is loving all of the attention. He was perfect on the flight up here. asleep at take-off and all through the flight then awake and cute during our layover. one of the flight attendants gave us a ton of stuff so I can scrap book it :).

I have been having technical difficulties with my blog so I am going to stop typing now and see if this posts....

yay! He's eating carrots!

So sad the weekend is over

Matt didn't have to work on Saturday! yay! He didn't have to work until Sunday afternoon after church. He was excited to go in though because he went to Universal Studios to help with the filming of a commercial! He got to see what it's like to film on a real green screen instead of in front of a makeshift blue tarp. :) Cool!

On Saturday Matt worked to get the office ready to move Kaden into it. Yay! No more baby in our room! I think I might start sleeping better... we'll see. He slept better last night(still in our room though). I'll post pictures when the transformation is complete. Kaden will be sharing the office with my husband but it will have a corner that is all his. :) Oh the challenges of apartment living and expensive rent.

On Saturday we went to a Luau at a fellow church member's home. It was a lot of fun. They brought in Hawaiian dancers- even a fire dancer! I was impressed.

In Kaden news he now has two bottom teeth! Poor guy no wonder he hasn't been sleeping well. Two new teeth in the space of about a week. Craziness.... and I thought he was chewing through everything before!

hi y'all

I am tired! Kaden is not sleeping well at all lately. He's gone back to waking up every three hours or more. This morning he decided to be awake at 5:30 for about an hour. I keep falling asleep while I nurse him and then I have nightmares that I've smothered him in my sleep! Blah! People tell me it's the teething that is throwing everything off. I hope that's it. He's napping more regularly which is nice. I took a half hour nap yesterday too. Not enough but every little bit helps.

We started our swim class yesterday. Kaden loved it. The only downside is that it is from 10:30 to 11 and 11 is when he likes to take a nap. He was falling asleep by the end of class. He fell asleep in the car on the way home. I was able to transfer him to his crib pretty easily- I had to nurse him a little. Then he napped for about an hour and a half. That was nice. I got a lot done.

I have started a new routine in my house- the Fly Lady. I did really well at it yesterday! :) Matt is enjoying having a cleaner house. I am enjoying it too. I tend to get overwhelmed by dishes- they just keep coming! And I hate having a dirty kitchen- it is so gross! I've been keeping up very well with this plan and I don't feel like all I do all day long is dishes or clean or whatever...
