Caeden at 4 Months

We're a little behind in updating everyone on Caeden this month. Things have been pretty busy. Caeden is doing great and growing like crazy. He's developing such a personality. This month he got to meet Great Great Aunt Angie and Great Great Uncle Dick from Arizona. He's trying to roll over from his back to his tummy now and he absolutely loves to blow bubbles. He learned a new trick too, if you stick your tongue out at him he tries to do it back. For Thanksgiving he got his first taste of mashed potatoes and was even snuck a little bit of Cool whip! We've been pretty busy getting ready for Christmas too. We put the tree up last weekend and Caeden likes to look at the lights. Presents are already under the tree too, he'll be one spoiled little boy this Christmas.

Caeden Eats Solids for the first time!!!

A week or so ago, Caeden ate cereal for the first time. Tonight we mixed prunes with his cereal, boy did he love that :)

Caeden's 4 Month Check up

Caeden went to the Dr yesterday for his four month check up. He now weighs 12 lbs 13 oz and is 24 inches long. He's in tenth percentile for height and weight. He had another round of shots. 2 in one leg and one in the other. He was not a very happy baby yesterday because of it and today he slept a lot and played with Grandma Glenda. Pretty soon he'll be going to daycare. He starts daycare with Beth, Kyle's friend's mom, on December 1st. Mommy is kind of nervous about daycare, but we'll see how it goes.

Caeden's First Halloween!

Last Saturday Caeden went to his first Halloween party. Avera Mckennan NICU graduates were invited to the Golf Dome for a halloween costume party. It'll be a lot more fun for him as he grows up because they have games, inflatables, and prizes. Caeden dressed up as a Pumpkin for Halloween and Mommy and Daddy took him trick or treating to Grandma & Grandpa Reiters, Aunt Jo, Uncle Larry and Jenny's house, Grandpa Jim & Grandma Glenda's House, and Grandma Lynnette and Grandpa Jeff's house. He made out with quite a loot! Yesterday Caeden got to go visit Great Grandma and Grandpa Carmon's grave for the first time. It was tough for Mommy. After that we took Caeden to the tri-state marker so we could say he was in three places at once. He's now been to Nebraska, Iowa, and Minnesota in less than four months!!!
