9 Months...Going on 10...

Oh my goodness!! It's happening. Right before my eyes.

My Baby Boy, my Little Booty is growing up!

He's 9 months...almost 10 months...which is almost ONE YEAR OLD?!?! Really?!

The thing that gets me the most is how much he's changed. I used to look at him and see a baby boy. Now when I walk in the room and see my Cayden I'm looking at a Big Boy. His face has changed so much in the last month, I can actually see what he'll look like as a toddler, as a teenager, and as a man. I could never see that before...it was always just baby boy.

It's somewhat sad to be done with that stage, but more so, its exciting. I can't wait to watch him grow into a little man...just like his daddy!

Here are some new pictures of Cayden at 9 months old. The first few are of Cayden in his new big boy swing! Daddy surprised him with the present a few weeks ago, when we arrived home from Florida. He had bought it for him when we were away...as an Easter present! We sat him in it and started pushing away, and Cayden just Loves it! The plastic was slippery, causing Cayden to to the "Detroit Lean" as Cyle likes to call it!

This one was a week or two later (notice no more cast!). He and Daddy were playing one of
their oh-so-creative games before bed! Cyle puts the pillow up like an arch and peeks at Cayden through the middle. Cayden goes crazy with the giggles and crawls under the bridge to get Daddy! This boy can do a mean army crawl these days!


These photos were taken just tonight, before bed (notice the sleepy, red eyes behind that grin!). I pulled a new toy out from his closet, one he'd never seen before. It's a piano/xylophone shaped like a puppy (Cayden's favorite!). He fell in love at first sight, and jammed until bedtime!


Now that he can do the army crawl, he's able to scoot around the room in no time! He's also learned he can climb on top of/through/around objects and toys! He's loving all of the new-found freedom!

Here's a little "playtime" collage!
