Month {Five}

Cade,
Another month has come and gone. You are getting bigger each day! I swear you are growing at least an inch each night!
Height: 25 1/4 inches (honestly I didn't measure you. I'm sure you are taller than this...)
Weight: 15.8 pounds
Head: 15 3/4 inches

I cannot believe next month you will be six months old! It seems like your daddy and I  just brought you home from the hospital! You are getting to be such a big, happy, silly baby boy.

You and Mommy on the 4th of July 

This month was July 4th. We had a fun day at Gramma and Grampa Greer's house having a BBQ. You also got your first taste of real food, carrots. You loved them and ate them right up! You hardly got any on your face because I couldn't get it in your mouth fast enough.

You eating carrots for the first time!

You after you ate your carrots! So happy!

Daddy won his first demo derby on July 5th! We watched him get crashed into by all of our Heber friends! It was so much fun! You had a great time, and loved being passed around and hearing the loud cars. You are such a great baby to let mommy and daddy drag you to derbies... You have never cried or acted like the loud cars even bother you!

Jumping in your bouncy seat!

You have learned to blow raspberries with your mouth. Whenever someone is talking to you or you are in a good mood you are spitting at us! You get spit all over yourself, but it is the cutest little thing! I am not sure where you learned it, but I love it! I always say if you love someone you will spit at them! You have also mastered jumping in your bouncy seat. Every morning while I eat breakfast you just jump and jump and jump in your seat. You love it and just get the biggest smile on your face while doing it! You wear yourself out jumping and usually take a great morning nap from all your jumping!

You in your swim suit at 7-Peaks Water Park

Every Tuesday this month we have been going to 7-Peaks Water Park with the Goode side of the family; your Aunts, cousins, Gramma and Keldon have joined us there! It took a few times for you to like the water and get used to being in the sun, but you love it now! I put you in your floaty and we go down the lazy river and you just kick and kick your legs in the water. We have gone to the wave pool a few times as well and you like when the waves hit you. It has been so much fun being able to do something each week together. I look forward to going to 7-Peaks and love the time we spend together. You are always so happy when all of your cousins dote over you! They just love you to pieces and I can't wait for you to be able to run and play with them!

This past month daddy finished up his softball season. His team took second place. We have had so much fun going to watch daddy play. You wear your little jersey with daddy's number on the back of it. You enjoy being outside, and it makes me happy you have been so good while we watch dad. I will put you on my lap and watch everyone play! I hope when you get bigger you will enjoy it as much too, and maybe even play some sports too!

This month you learned to sit up all by yourself! I love that I can sit you up and you will just stay sitting for a long time. Sometimes you are a little tipsy, but for the most part you have got the hang of sitting up. You love being able to look around and watch everyone. I think you had such an easy time sitting up cause you have a small little noggin, just like your daddy! You like to sit up in the bath tub too! Such a big boy!

You still don't have any teeth, but you drool so much! Your shirts are usually soaked with slobber all the time! Before I always had to carry a burp cloth cause you spit up so much, now I need to carry one to wipe off your mouth from all of your slobber from spitting and blowing raspberries!

Cade, you are so much fun! I have loved this stage, so far it is my favorite. You are getting the funniest, silliest personality. I know each month I say that, but it is true! I love when I can make you laugh, usually the best way to get a good laugh is when I act like a complete fool in front of you! I love hearing your sweet laugh though. It is the best sound in the world! Most of the time, you are pretty serious. You just like to look around and observe the world around you. You are starting to get quite talkative. In the morning you wake up talking to the little animals on your bumper pad in your crib. You like to touch the fabric and talk to them. It is the best way to get woken up in the morning. Your sweet little voice is the best!

Cade, your daddy and I love you so much! You are our pride and joy! We cannot believe you are ours!
