Dear Kaeden,
You're 8 months old! Time sure is flying by and I am loving every second spent with you.

We've had a more low-key month, spent entirely at home. In general, I would say that is your preference. One benefit has been that you have gotten into a good nap routine. You are fairly consistently taking two 1 1/2 hour long naps each day, which is great for you, but makes it somewhat tricky to get out of the house. Ryan & I have had our share of stir crazy days this month, but we've also been enjoying your morning nap time to have some special one-on-one time, so it works out okay.

You have become such a happy baby! Sometimes I forget now how fussy you could be just a couple of months ago. Now, there has to be something obviously wrong for you to be fussy - usually, it's just a matter of Mommy being too far away!

You love to eat! We've been working on puffs & cheerios this month, and you're doing well with them. Occasionally, one will still get caught on the back of your tongue and you'll gag a bit, but in general you can handle it. You'd still rather eat the mush, though.

Pulling up is your latest trick. You've mastered crawling, so I guess you decided you needed a new one. You don't play with toys that much anymore, unless it's something you can stand up on. You'd rather crawl around the house and pull up on every surface you possibly can. It definitely gets you in trouble sometimes, but you're loving your independence... and the ability to chase your brother around.




You're not babbling yet, but I'm hoping that will come soon. Your favorite sound to make right now is "sss" or "shh"
You got your first two teeth this month. Here's the first one popping through (you weren't too thrilled about me messing with your mouth right then!) Your top ones don't look like they're anywhere close, so I'm hoping we might get a break from teething for a while.



I got a big pool this summer for you boys to play in, and you've been enjoying it fine. You like to splash, but not when you splash so much that it gets in your face. And it's even more fun when cousin Atticus plays with you :)

Things I love about my Kaeden: the way you clap your hands when I come to get you in the morning; that Ryan can make you laugh more than anybody else; the sound you make when you're getting ready to nurse; your hugs & kisses; your peach fuzz head

And here are your 8 month photos... you were very cooperative this month :) Thank you!
