My Growing Boy

Our little monkey turns 7 months old tomorrow. I took Kaden to the grocery store today and he rode in the seat for almost the whole time! He's getting so big. He's been eating solid food for quite a while now too. Kaden likes both fruit and vegetables. We've even tried a few combination foods like turkey and beans, ham and eggs, mixed vegetables, and bananas/apples/pears.

Ryan watched Kaden on Wednesday and took this adorable clip of him. He tried so hard to stay awake but just couldn't manage.

I'm glad my pet weighs more than 6 pounds

Is it bad that I laughed out loud at this story?

Kaden's Checkup

Ryan took Kaden in for his 6 month check up today. He got three shots and was a real trooper and only cried for about 5 seconds or so. Ryan soothed him by holding him after all the shots were finished. Kaden's weight is up to 18 pounds 10 ounces. He's rolling all over the place too - he hasn't quite figured out the crawling.

The doctor also said that we can start feeding him solid food 3 times a day. So far Kaden has enjoyed peas (his favorite veggie), pears, applesauce, carrots, peaches, bananas, and green beans. He gets so excited to eat and figured out if he opens his mouth for more he usually gets more. I'll have to get a clip of us feeding him and post it soon. He also cut his first tooth recently and hasn't been complaining about it.

Kaden and I will be visiting my sister, Amanda, in Arkansas this weekend. Ryan unfortunately has to work so he has to stay home. It will be my first trip alone with Kaden. Amanda can't wait to see her little nephew!
