Cereal!

No, that is not spit up for once!! We gave Kaden his first serving of cereal a few days ago and he wasn't sure what to make of it at first. Today was day three, and it is going much better. He swallows about half of the serving now, which is a huge improvement from day one.

Kaden's first festival

We took Kaden to a wine festival at an ampitheater down the road from us in Cary. It was a beautiful day, and he had a great time! He is so alert and loves to watch everything. It seems like he figures something new out everyday.

So sleepy!

Hawaii

View from the balcony


I was extremely fortunate to have the chance to visit Hawaii a few weeks ago for a whirlwind four days. I had a fabulous time watching my friend Amber get married. I was sad to leave Kaden for the first time, but he was in the best hands ever- with Grandma & Grandpa Strachan and Dad.



It was so wonderful to see Amber marry Brandon and to spend time with Katrina, who I had not seen in far to long!

Sea Turtles


The sea turtles came up on the shore each day in the afternoon then swam back in the evening.

Whale Tail

Look closely- it's there! I could see whales in the distance every morning from the deck- amazing. But nothing prepared me for the whale watch we went on. We saw six or seven whales from the boat. One did a full flip in the air!

Time to play!

The first victim



Kaden was so excited to meet his cousin, Syrus, that he spit up all over him a minute after these pictures were taken. Syrus was smart to remind his mom to bring extra clothes for him the next day- just in case!
