YES- we are still here! :)

Haven't blogged much lately. Things have been so busy! We have had multiple birthday parties, Garrett's and my 4th wedding anniversary, a trip to Oregon, 2 BSU game get-togethers, doctor appointments, a trip to the ER, and 2 straight weeks of Caden being sick. All this on top of our regular busy schedule. My, my, my.
I am SO ready for fall and all the holidays. I am excited for Caden to dress up for Halloween, get to eat a bit of his first Thanksgiving dinner, and open his first gifts on Christmas. It will be a fun time for us.
As I speak, Caden is playing in the other room even though he should be napping! I don't know what is up with him today. He usually goes down so easily for his naps...he usually seems ready for a rest. But today he screamed and kicked and acted like I was torturing him! This little episode gave me a quick glimpse into what will most likely be my future during the toddler years. Ugh. I am tired already! haha.
Caden is still getting stronger everyday. I think he will be sitting on his own soon.
He has been "talking" up a storm! It is pretty funny.
Dionna's family is in town today and Caden and I get to see them at Kamica's volleyball game this afternoon. I am looking forward to it...I just hope he has had a nap by then and isn't a little grump! :)
I have already started buying some of Caden's Christmas gifts, which is so much fun! But I have to remember not to get carried away, as he will probably be more interested in the wrapping paper than any of his gifts! haha.
In 5 days Caden will be 5 months old! I can't believe it.
Well, I am going to give his nap another try...wish me luck!
PS- of course some photos to end this post:
