Caden 6 months old and on the move!

We have reached the six month mark and that means time to re-baby proof our house! If you want to see Caden move across the floor quickly, put one of Calvin's toys out or the bag of wipes. It is not an official army crawl but he is on the move pushing himself wherever he wants to go. He has found that he loves the wood floor. It is a great source of entertainment as he hits his hands repeatedly on the floor to make noise.

We just had his 6 month check up and Caden weighs 18 pounds and is 26.25 inches long! He is eating oatmeal, pears, and peaches. The doctor suggested we start with fruits that start with the letter p to help aide Caden in his digestion. It is working great so far and we aren't having to give juice like we were before to help him go. There may be some tummy pains related to the peaches, so I will be monitoring that closely the next few times he eats them. I just got a food processor and can't wait to make him baby food!

What Caden has been up to:
  - Puts his binkie in his mouth in the middle of the night!!! (when he can find it)
  - Has two bottom teeth
  - Objects when things are taken from him
  - LOVES his baby food. Even gets up set if he is sitting at the table when we are eating and he is not.
  - He's a  Mama's boy! (there are pros and cons to this I am finding)
  - Starting to put him in his bed at naptime to he can learn to fall asleep on his own.
  - Loves to gives smiles
  - Still drools nonstop. Wondering when more teeth are going to show up
  - Holds his own bottle!

    I told mommy everyone that was feeding Caden just by looking at their arms. Calvin makes crazy faces. I am going to watch it again.
