We have been busy since our last blog. Chris and I both had a birthday! We've gone through the 4th of July and took a vacation to North Carolina. Hunter and Adam are back in school in a couple weeks...the 3rd and 4th grade. They are growing so fast. Caiden is growing like a weed. He will be ONE in a couple weeks!! August 19th. We can't believe it has already been a year. At 10 months he started walking. Ever since North Carolina last week, he is now practically running. He says several words including mommy or mama when he wants to, daddy, bye bye, hi, baby, and uh oh. He likes to call his best friend Dillon "baby" even though they are only a couple months apart. However, his cousin Dagny who is also only a couple months older than him likes to call Caiden "baby" as well. Sign language, he understands several words, but is really only doing the sign for "more" and "daddy." He has 6 teeth and he is so funny. He makes us laugh every day. His expressions are endless, and well as his babble. He carries on long conversations with us as if we understand it. We hope you all have had a good summer so far. Here are a bunch of pictures! xoxoxoxo
Dillon, Trey and Caiden had a play date! The boys had a blast and Caiden and Dillon pushed each other over trying to get to Trey's dog. :)

Caiden has started to cross his little fingers this month..he does it randomly, not sure why, but it's very cute.

Jeff and Nomie came to town to visit. It was so great to see them and they got to meet their nephew Caiden for the first time. We love you guys!
Caiden adored Nomie!
We went to North Carolina last week. This was Caiden's second trip on a plane and this time he was old enough to look out the window.

My family threw Caiden an early birthday party in North Carolina so that they could celebrate with him. Here are Caiden and his cousins Ainsley and Dagny patiently waiting for cake.
