It was a Happy Father's Day!

We had a great day today, celebrating Derek & Cade's 2nd Father's Day together! Here are some pics of my boys from today :)

And yes, the cheese face...




I'm so thankful for these two!












Before bedtime, all tuckered out from a long day...


And here's a pretty good comparison shot... Father's Day 09:

Cade's 15 Month Checkup

We took Cade for his 15 month checkup today (mom went with us) and Oh. My. Gosh... it just gets worse & worse as they get older!

The checkup part went well... she was happy with everything... Cade is growing... 26.8 pounds and 32 inches (he's grown an inch in 3 months!)... in the 75th percentile for his height & weight and 90th percentile for his head, LOL (big brain, I'm sure)... she was happy with his eating & no bottle & use of cups. She wasn't too concerned that he's not saying much after I told her that he was jabbering and talking in his own language and making "sounds" that seem to sound like words, like kitty and Mickey Mouse... and that he is very social, makes eye contact, and understands everything we tell him. Sooo, probably just a slow talker or lazy.

The shots... argh... HORRIBLE! As soon as I put him on the table, he started crying... real tears! Sobbing! He was a mess by the time they gave him his 3 shots. I honestly don't think I've ever seen him cry so hard. He almost lost his breath at one point. It was really sad. I think it traumatized my mom too (sorry to put you through that mom!)

Soo, that's it. I brought him home and he wouldn't even eat the ice cream I bought him at the store today. He just wanted to go to sleep.

I'm already dreading 18 month shots.
