6 Months!

 Cade is 6 months old! We can't believe it- time has literally flown by!  He is getting to be quite the big boy- he now weighs 14.5 pounds and is 24 inches tall.  As you can see from the picture above, he's got some chunky cheeks and a little belly on him!  He is now transitioning to be on a schedule, which I love, and life is starting to settle down. Right now we are working on getting him to take better naps, he is currently the half-hour nap king.  You can literally set your watch to 30 min and he will be up.  Grr this means that I do not get much done throughout the day, but at least he continues to be a good nighttime sleeper.

Right now Cade is obsessed with sitting or standing- it is all that he wants to do.  My arms get sore and tired at the end of the day from holding him in a standing position.  His eye sight has developed enough that he can see the TV and is fascinated by it! Carl was very proud that he sat and watched football.

Sophie is very entertaining to Cade, he loves to watch her.

 He is starting to try and sit by himself.  He can't hold this position for long, but he is very proud when he is able to.

 Cade is a very smiley boy!  It is really hard to get a picture of him smiling because every time I bring out the camera, he becomes very still and stares at it.  But when the camera is not around, he smiles and coos happily.
