Happy 6 months Kade!!

Our sweet Kade turned six months yesterday! When did he go from an infant to a baby that sits up?? Kade is such a happy baby - really enjoys being held, but I think that's more so he can see all the crazy things that go on in our house! Now that he's sitting more, he seems to like just watching everything as he chews on his latest toy (or whatever toy Brock hasn't grabbed from him to play with himself. How are baby toys soo much more appealing than his toys?!?).

Please disregard the messy shirt
He has progressed so much with holding toys and grabbing toys in the last two weeks, it's amazing! I've forgotten how much they can change in just a week's time!!

Let's see - Kade is not really enjoying eating with a spoon - he doesn't seem to like the purees so much. He likes feeding himself baby wafers and managed to get a few pees in his mouth earlier this week when I put some on his tray to play with at dinner. He was a champ at actually "chewing" them too, so okay baby, we are going to do things differently with you.

He has started to soothe himself to sleep for naptime which is so helpful during the day. I don't have to fret while nursing him to sleep what Brock has gotten in to while being left alone! Naps are still 20-30 minutes, so eh, that could be better. Evenings are a little better too - only gets up one more time about thirty minutes after I put him down - I run in to put paci in his mouth and he's good until 5am.

Kade is a feisty little one when he plays though - he likes to hit things pretty hard to hear the noise and BELLY LAUGHS while watching Brock act a fool. He loves watching Brock kick the ball and follows the ball or the car down the hall to see where it went. The "Tennessee blue" eyes, as Brent is calling it, seems to be sticking around.... we'll see if they last. 
Christmas is going to be fun tomorrow. Kade is going to have a lot to watch tomorrow as Brock opens up all his presents (and probably helps Kade with his too!)

Bring it on Santa, we are ready for you!!
"Mom, there's nothing in here!!?"
