9 Months and a Pint Sized Adventure!!

Our little baby is becoming a little boy! Cayden is now 9 months old and getting bigger and stronger each day. He has officially joined the world of walkers as he is walking everywhere now (well most indoor places). It is still quicker for him to crawl but he would now prefer to walk like a big boy! Today we went on a Pint Sized adventure with a group of moms. This was Cayden's first time at the zoo and he didn't seem too interested in the animals but enjoyed being outside and watching the other kids. He especially liked it when he got to get out of his stroller and walk!

Even though we were (at least I was) exhausted after the zoo I still decided to take Cayden to Gymboree because he would not take a nap. I thought I would wear him out so hopefully he sleeps really well tonight! He was all over that gym today pushing balls (even the huge ball-quite funny), climbing up the slide-so naughty :), crawling through tunnels, and walking under bridges. I eventually had to leave because I was so tired of following him around and keeping him "safe". But he has so much fun there and loves to be around the other children.



Cayden now has three teeth and is working on the fourth, hopefully that will even out the smile a little bit! The other day he started to push buttons on his toys so they play music and he does a little dance . . . so cute! We are having so much fun with him and it is great to see how he is growing and definitely developing his own personality, which at times can be a little naughty. We love him so much and are daily blessed by his great smiles and playful personality!

He is so cute and advanced! Wow- walking at 9 months. We have a ways to go before we see that :) We are still celebrating if Ruby sucks on her fingers or tries to reach for toy. Oh well-- we will get there.

Wish I could see the walking in person! Thanks for the phone call the other day; hopefully we will talk soon, especially after our ultrasound on Monday. Have a great weekend!

Amazing! Your little "Pint" is growning up fast. I wish we lived closer so I could witness all of Cayden's new accompishments in person and see you and Matthew as parents. So crazy . . . all of our college friends are growing up fast too! :) Love you and miss you!
