It feels like summer!

It was a beautiful, hot and sunny day so we got the pool out for Cadynce. She had so much fun she didn't want to get out. Hoosier even got in with her, but once Cadynce started splashing Hoosier got out of there. I should also mention that Cadynce started crawling last week and can now pull herself to a stand. She isn't crawling everywhere, but she does crawl occasionally. View Album for more pictures.

She's Mobile!

Cadynce is wanting to walk more and more so I got out her wheels, gave her the keys, and she was off. All day long she walked back and forth in the living room. She had quite a few falls, but after a while she started getting the hang of it. View Album for more pictures.

Happy Valentine's Day!

We had a great Valentine's dinner at a Mongolian restaurant called HuHot. Cadynce had a hard time sitting still in the high chair because she was talking and pointing to the kids sitting behind us. She is very social when we're out in public. Thank you Mimi and Grandpa Don for the cute little red dress. View Album for more pictures.

10 Months Old

Cadynce has officially skipped crawling, and she is walking from couch to couch to end table to recliner and anywhere else she can get her hands on. I tried to get some pictures of her top teeth as well; still only three on top. Cadynce has started saying Dada when she sees Don. Every day gets better and better. View Album for more pictures.

More Teeth

Cadynce now has three teeth on top with the fourth almost in and still just the two on bottom. The past four days have been filled with a whole lot of whining and crying while her teeth are pushing through. Cadynce learned what a monkey says while we were at Target a couple days ago so now everytime she sees a monkey (in her book of course) she makes the sound. View Album for pictures.

9 Month Picture

Here are Cadynce's nine month pictures; we thought they turned out great. We had to put her on her belly so she couldn't take her headband off.

It's been quite a month for us. She is moving around pretty good, cruising the couch, saying Mama, ball, and dog. She just started playing peek-a-boo today while eating lunch, and she is getting her two top teeth in too. She also gets her morning workout wrestling her bear. View Album for pictures.

Cadynce's First Word...Ball

This weekend while we were out shopping we went to a Nike store. We passed a basket full of basketballs and Cadynce said "ball" so we let her hold one, and she wouldn't let it go. She took it with her in every store and said "ball" all day long. She loves playing ball with Don. Enjoy the video.

Standing Tall

I got Cadynce a little play table at the resale shop and she stands and plays until her little legs can't hold her any more. When the music plays she starts doing a little head bopping and some booty shaking!

9 Months Old

It's hard to believe nine months has gone by. Cadynce is still low crawling, and she gets pretty frustrated at times when her toys are across the room. I've told her many times that crawling is so much easier, but she doesn't listen:) She is into dropping everything on the floor and throwing anything she can get her little hands on. We had her nine month check up today; she weighs 16 pounds 8 ounces and is 28 1/4 inches long. View Album for more pictures.

Indiana Christmas

We flew home for ten days to be with our families for Christmas. Christmas time is always busy with three Christmas's on Don's side of the family and one on my side. We are so thankful that our families live so close together! Cadynce had a wonderful first Christmas, and she enjoyed playing with all her toys. Cadynce finally started to scoot while we were home, and our families loved watching her do it for the first time. As always, Cadynce loved being around her cousins and watched every move they made. They adore her, and take care of her like she's their little sister. View Album for lots of pictures.
