Kade In His Highchair

Here is a picture of Kade's first highchair feeding. This was the first time I really fed him anything besides breast milk. I started him out on baby cereal. He really likes it and looks like a little bird opening his mouth in anticipation of each bite!
Here he is making a bit of a mess all over his face! At first he wasn't sure what he was supposed to do with the cereal. As fast as I could spoon it into his mouth, he was spitting it back out.
Once he got the hang of it though, he has done real well eating from his spoon.

Kade's Silly Tricks

Since Kade is teething, he really likes to chew on his pacifier. He turns it like that without even using his hands!
He also likes to cross his ankles all the time. I can't keep shoes and socks on him, because he crosses his feet and kicks his shoes off. Then he'll roll his socks off. So I've given up on shoes until he learns how to walk.

I Want To Be Like Uncle Bryan

Here's our future Tumble In delivery man! I think Uncle Bryan is rubbing off on Kade a little bit. Does that look seem familiar? I've had several people tell me that they think Kade looks like Bryan. I really thought that when he was first born!

SMILE!

Kade just loves to smile all the time! Jake & I enjoy watching him play and smile. He's so much fun! Here he was playing on his play mat.
Kade realized he can flip the bar of his pacifier up above his nose. It doesn't bother him at all. He will just leave it up there for a long time. Jake & I will just laugh at him!

Daddy, Mommy, and Kade

Here are a couple of current pictures of Kade with Mom and Dad. We played in the floor a little while this evening when Jake & I got home from work. Kade is really starting to have fun playing! We are having so much fun with him!

Kade's 4 Month Checkup

Kade had his 4 month checkup today with his second set of shots. He turned 5 months old yesterday, so we were a month behind. This was the soonest I could get him in for his checkup. His doctor checked his bronchiolitis, and he is doing much better. He is feeling well now, and I am so glad! It has only been a week since he was weighed and measured, and today Kade weighed 19 lbs., 4 0z. and was 25 inches long. So supposedly he has gained 12 oz. in one week! But the nurses said he probably had a pounder diaper on. We had been waiting for quite a while, and I hadn't been able to change him!
