5 Months

For our 5 month picture Cade was more interested in the sign than taking a picture! 5 months was around the time he really started noticing things around him and this picture captures that! He has gotten so fun and I do not remember exactly when he learned each new thing, but it seems like everyday was something new around this time up until now....and I know that will continue!

Cade went to 2 graduations this month! And he was great at both! Here he is watching big cousins Colten and Mason graduate. And the week before he went to Weston's graduation at Tech with my parents. 

Speaking of him going with my parents, Brian and I did something BIG this month. We left Cade for the 1st time overnight and headed to Texas. And we scheduled it before we realized that it was on Mother's Day weekend, but we survived and had so much fun! It helps knowing that Cade is in such good hands. A little side note on our trip: We left Saturday morning (my parents were nice enough to come to our house and pick Cade up for us) and went to the Rangers game Saturday night. Then we went to a restaurant/bar behind our hotel after the game. Sunday morning we got up and spent too much time in IKEA. Neither of us had ever been and I fell in love with it! Such a neat place!! We bought a few things for our house and then headed home to see our sweet boy!! Not without stopping at Cheesecake Factory and for a 2nd trip to IN-N-OUT first though! :) And while we missed Cade like crazy, we had a great time, my parents enjoyed having him, and he loved staying with them so it all worked out for the best.

Here we are the day we got back (Mother's Day) holding Cade and last year with our Mother's Day gift for my mom. We told her we were having a baby by giving her this onesie as an early Mother's Day gift last year. That seems like yesterday in a way but so long ago in another way. It is weird how that happens.

Cade went to his 1st HOG game and met Alex Collins! We met Zach and Ashley at this game and we had a lot of fun! Cade slept most of the time and didn't seem too concerned with the game at all, but he was good as he always is.

And we celebrated our 1st Easter together! Brian and I talked a lot on this day how the previous Easter Cade was not even a thought to us yet. Crazy! Easter was the last holiday we had before finding out I was pregnant in April.

And he tried his 1st baby food this month!! So far he has only had veggies but we haven't found any he doesn't like yet. This boy is definitely an eater! And not a picky one!
