The Boy is 9 Months.

I can't believe the boy has been out in the world as long as he was in my belly. The last 9 months have flown by so much faster and have been so much more enjoyable than the 9 months of pregnancy. 


-The boy's big trick of the month has been pulling himself up to stand. He sees every object as a tool to stand up. He's even becoming a little dare devil and has been letting go of the edge and standing on his own for 10-15 seconds.
-He also started crawling up our stairs (causing multiple heart attacks for his momma).
-Caiden tries relentlessly to eat the dog food and is constantly stealing his bones.
-The poor boy experienced his first big cold, his first flu bug, and his first ear infection.
-He celebrated his very first Thanksgiving.
-His two top side teeth have come through, but not his middle teeth. He has vampire fangs. The middle teeth are ready to break through the surface though, you can see them!
-Caiden loves to eat cheerios, Bajio chicken, rice chex, maple cinnamon puffs, anything covered in cinnamon, and nutrigrain bars. 
-The boy has always been very independent but has been attached to his momma's hip as of late. Probably because he's had a month of sickness, but I am enjoying all the hugs and snuggles.
-Caiden got his first big boy tooth brush and he LOVES it like a toy. Maybe he'll be as obsessed with good dental health as his momma.
-On the same note, the boy is obsessed with teeth. He is always sticking his hands in our mouths to check out our pearly whites. He also loves to grab noses.
-He is a very social baby and loves to be crawling around on the ground with other babies.
-Caiden started sticking his tongue out of his mouth a little when he's crawling really fast.
-He loves it when we say "I'm going to get you!" He freezes where he is and starts laughing and waiting for you to tickle him.


We love our Caiden boy and have really enjoyed the last 9 months. Now on to his first Christmas!
