Baby Cade Update

Cade has gotten to be quite the big boy.  He is almost up to 6 pounds and has chubby cheeks.  So far he seems to have a mellow personality, he seems to only get fussy when you wake him up to feed and the bottle is not immediately placed in his mouth.  He is able to be calmed quite easily, either with a passie or swaddling him tightly.  Which I love, I swaddled Sophie for a long time and she still prefers a sleep sack.  Cade is also very snugly.  He loves to be held and will snuggle right in.  I am foreseeing many nights of him sleeping on us instead of in his crib.  We are hoping to have Cade home within a week.  He will be coming home on oxygen and monitors, so we will not be traveling lightly!  But we will be thrilled to have him home, no matter how much stuff he needs!


Cade is very expressive with his hands.  Usually when I need to change his diaper, he holds out a hand in a stop sign motion.  Sometimes he forgets what he's doing and falls asleep with his arm still raised.  In the pic above he's sleeping with his arm up in the air, almost looking like he's ready to give someone 'nucks.
