Watch Me Grow....

Caden is getting bigger each day! Last Monday he measured 20.5 inches and weighed over 8 pounds. He is also growing in ability. Just this weekend he started trying to hold his head up, plus he can turn it over when he is on his tummy! This morning he started reaching for the lion that hangs on his bouncer and actually hit it once. Some of my (Alycia) favorite times are when he is eating as he makes the most adorable - and often humorous - faces! He is such a sweet boy!

I am doing well. My recovery from the c-section has gone better than planned. I was able to resume regular activities (including driving) after 2 weeks. I still can't lift heavy things - with the exception of Caden in his car seat - but overall I am doing great. We seem to be getting into a routine and our house has definitely become "baby central". Toby is a great daddy - he loves to spend time with Caden and doesn't even mind diaper duty - or helping with the midnight feeding. So far this parenting thing, although challenging at times, is a lot of fun and very rewarding - especially when we see Caden's precious smile!
