first pool dip

I went to Kelly's graduation party last sunday. It was so warm out {love it}! So I decided it was a good idea to dip Cade into the pool. Just to test the waters. haHA! I can't wait until I actually dip him in more, but this was fun.




Apparently, he thought it was cold!! He didn't seem to mind at first, then he got sick of it.

late afternoon naps

Ahh...there is nothing like a good nap!

@ Whitney's Birthday Party

Again, he was super well behaved. He started to get a little warm, so I put a fan on him and HE LOVED it!





*more to come

memorial day photo op

I had to take him with me for a photo op. He was so well behaved, but I must admit, it's a lot easier sans baby

hanging out at grandma & papa's

He giggles sooo much at my dad & mikey. It's so cute

Cute Baby Contest:

Winner! Winner!

Red, White & Blue

Too bright out for him after just waking up from a nap

Mr. Bubbles

Baby feet are sooooo cute.


So I looked over at Caden and he had the cutest little smile on. I figured it was a good opportunity to take pix!









I call him Mr. Bubbles sometimes, bc he spits bubbles.



Yes, he is sticking his tongue out!



Just chill...





Oh man! My baby is growing up so fast!

Bath Time!

I love it when I stand him up and he clinches his butt cheeks! haha


This baby LOVES getting a bath!

Caden's 1st Prom Pix

I was just thinking, I should have dressed him up in a little tux. Damn! Next year!


I have a ton of pictures to post. It's just really hard to work on my blog when there is a screaming baby in the house. We have to make sure to not hold him 24/7. Otherwise, he will never learn to be independent. And Jimmy & I BOTH agreed that we want our kids to be independent, so as soon as I put him down and he starts crying.....hmmm. There's a SMALL sign that he is being held too long during the day. grrrrrrr....

I just put him in his crib so that I could upload and work on these. He screamed himself to sleep. Awesome, now I have to go wake him up! Great! I'm super NOT happy about that.

He got a lot of attention over Blossom weekend. There were so many people holding him & kissing him. Almost everyone did a great job holding him the correct way. Of course there were a few inexperienced people who didn't realize that they weren't supporting his head. He is only 2 months, so BOOM down he goes. I almost FREAKED on 3 people holding him. Isn't it a written rule, common sense, to ALWAYS support a little baby's head?!?! Do you know how hard it is to NOT tell people, "hey can you please hold my baby better, in a more supportive way?" There is no easy way to say it without pissing off the other person. Well shit, I shouldn't have to say it at all. I'm seriously getting to the point where I just won't let ANYONE hold him until he can fully support himself on his own. Because I seriously don't trust anyone to do it. Sometimes I don't even trust myself *cough*cough*2AM*cough*cough*! When I see someone not supporting his head while holding him, my head swells, my eyes shoot daggers at them, and I'm SCREAMING INSIDE!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

And kissing! Don't people know to NOT kiss a baby on the lips!?! I saw a few people doing that! Are you serious right now?! Everyone knows that you shouldn't do that. Don't they realize how friggin dirty all of our mouths are? I don't even kiss my OWN baby on the lips!!! That is so wrong! ick! wtf!

Whew! ok, thanks I needed that. Well, I must REALLY go wake up this baby now. Yay.... Sweet. I'm in for a long night now! Awesome. :/

9 weeks

I put Caden on his belly for some "tummy time" and of course he eventually fell asleep. He is on his fisher price activity mat. I came back & he is facing the opposite direction. He spun his body around on his belly in a 180º turn! Instead of facing the tv he is now facing the couch! good work little man!

Now he is fartin' & suckin' on his fingers. Guess I better hurry & heat up his bottle before he freaks out! haha

Happy bloggin'

Let's Go to the Zoo!

Caden's first visit to the zoo! We got a membership, so I plan on going a few times this year.











He was really good!!! I guess he liked it!

Caden's Baptism

best baby ever!









he must have thought he was getting a bath, bc he sure didn't mind the water





They gave Mikey the candle to light, good thing he was tall enough!



haha caught him blowing out the candle.



we look like we are having a grrrrrreat time! haha





Whew! That was a long day!

Afterwards we came home to some food! My mom made a cake and of course I didn't get a picture of it. I have a feeling, I'm going to miss a lot of photo ops when we have people over. :( Case in point, I didn't get a SINGLE picture at our house. Too busy working. I also didn't even get to talk to anyone. Not a single conversation. I hope everyone had a good time. :/
