Car Show

Our beautiful girl! Two weekends ago we went to a car show. We all had a great time.
Mateo missed all the excitement. He slept the entire time.

Kaden was such a ham at the show. She sat in the car and waved at everyone as if she was a beauty queen. It was the cutest and funniest thing.

Daddy and Kaden in Daddy's future truck.

These cars and motorcycle were in the exotic car section.

This was the car in Iron Man.

These cars were in the millionaire row section.

This car is $700,000 with a 2 year waiting list. Any takers?

Mateo 4 weeks old

Mateo helped cheer the Dolphins to a victory last Sunday.
We could not believe he was holding his bottle by himself.

This picture is so funny to me.

Mateo had his 3 week check up. He now weighs 8 pounds 11 ounces and is 21 and a quarter inches long. He is growing rapidly. Now we just need to work on sleeping for longer stretches at a time, poor mommy is tired.



Playground Time


We went to the playground in our neighboorhood. Kaden loves to be outside and she loves to swing.


Grandma Boo gave Kaden this fun toy for her birthday. I'm not sure who likes it more Kaden or me and Gilbert.


Halloween

It has taken me forever to get these picture up but better late than never. We went to trick or treat at a mall with Kaden and Mateo's cousins, Marc and Victor.
Kaden was a Dolphin Cheerleader, Go Dolphins!

Mateo had on this cute outfit that said I'm so cute it is scary. He slept through it all.

Limo Stroller







Both kids love to go for walks. Kaden loves when we get to the lake and she gets to see the ducks.

As you can see the walk way to our door is very narrow and we barely fit in the stroller.

My Dad gave us a double stroller which we refer to as the limo stroller. We love it. It is easy to use and has multiple positions we can put the kids in.

Mateo 3 weeks old












Mateo is doing well. I can't believe he is 3 weeks old now. He eats about every 2 hours so I don't get a lot of sleep. Last week we went to the doctor for a weight check since he had not gained enough weight the week before. He weighed 7 pounds 15 ounces so he had gained 13 ounces in a week! This was good news. Tomorrow we go to the doctor for his 3 week check up.
I don't think I mentioned this before, but when we were in the hospital the doctor heard a heart murmur and they ran some tests. The cardiologist told us that all babies are born with a small hole in their heart and Mateo's was a bit bigger than usual. He said usually these things correct themselves and he would see us again in 5 weeks to reevaluate. Please pray that this has corrected itself.
Kaden has a stomach virus, she is vomiting and has diarrhea. This morning Mateo had diarrhea. I sure hope that not everyone in the house gets sick. I don't want two sick babies at the same time.

Kaden 11 months old

Kaden finally will drink from a sippy cup!

Eating Spaghetti for the first time. She loved it!



Kisses from Daddy
Look I have a Mohawk of curls!

I can not believe that in one month Kaden will be one. Time has gone by so fast. Kaden has made a lot of accomplishments in the last month. She now has 4 teeth on the top and 4 teeth on the bottom. She finally will use a sippy cup. She is talking / babbling all the time. She even babbles in sentences. The other day she asked a question, of course we had no idea what she was saying. She now says ooh, wow, bye bye, hello, moo (when she sees a picture of a cow), mama, dada, baby. She can stand on her own without holding on to anything for about 20 seconds. She is trying to walk but hasn't figured it out yet. She loves to read. Recently we started showing her Baby Einstein videos. She loves the world safari. It so cute she just talks to the video.
