Caiden Turns One!

Our little boy turned one on November 28th, we can't believe it! We threw a birthday party at our house for Caiden it was a blast. I made homemade mac n cheese and we had some of Caidens favorite fruits. It really feels like yesterday when we were first holding him in our arms as a newborn...now he's walking. Caiden has brought so much joy and happiness to our lives. He is such a happy guy and makes so many people laugh. It has been so much fun to see him grow and learn new things. We can't wait to see what this next year brings and the new things he will learn.

We love you so much Caiden!

We had Caidens one year checkup. Here are his stats: 26.14lbs (92%), 31.75 in (94%), and his head is in the 97% he is a very smart little guy with that big brain. :) He no longer has a bottle which was a little difficult on him at the beginning but he is doing much better now. It also took him sometime to get used to drinking milk but he now likes it! :)

Caiden says a hand full of words: banana (he says nana), nigh nigh, up, mama, dada, bottle (baba), hot (he says hop), when he eats he says num num, and he can sign the words MORE and ALL DONE. He likes to wave hi and bye to people. He is also walking all over the place.

Things he loves: balloons, people (he is quite the little attention hog), bananas, cheese, mama, dada, dogs, trucks and cars, he loves to spin wheels, throw balls, binky, books, peek-a-boo, being chased, grill cheese sandwiches, and LOVES music and dancing.



Caiden 1 years old. He looks so grown up here.


This is Caiden smiling at daddy when he was a month old. Its amazing the difference a year makes.

He was so excited about the big ride on dump truck we bought him.


His cupcake cake

This is as messy as he got. We were all shocked I thought it would end up on his head. :)

Yummy cake!
