First ER Visit

Last Wednesday Kaden had her first trip to the ER. I received a phone call from day care about 3:30 saying Kaden had a fever of 106. Of course this made me panic. Her pediatrician told me to go to the ER. When I got to the daycare, Kaden's hair was soaking wet from sweat and she looked like she felt horrible. I made sure to ask the day care 3 times are you sure it said 106, because I had a hard time believing it was this high. They reconfirmed the temperature. So I did not want to take any chances, off to the ER we went. They ran several tests to see what could have caused the her temperature to get this high. I am not sure if the drawing of the blood, taking a urine sample, and the taking snot sample was more traumatic for me or Kaden. I had to hold back tears while I watched my poor baby scream. Thankfully all the tests came back negative. When we left the hospital her temperature was 101 and two days later the fever was completely gone. I am still not sure that her temperature was that high but it is better to be safe than sorry.

Update in Pics

Kaden loves Mommy's sunglasses.

Gilbert's sister and family came to visit from France. Kaden loved playing with her cousins.

Pregnancy Pic

I realized I have not put any pictures up from this pregnancy. This is me at 28 weeks.

Aunt Hannah comes to visit

Aunt Hannah came down to visit us. We had a great time. Hannah helped me out so much. It was nice to be spoiled. We will miss her!

Bath Time

Kaden loves bath time! She loves to play with her rubber duckies. She especially loves when I get the shower head down.

Standing

Kaden now loves to stand in her crib. This was taken this morning at day care.

8 months old

Kaden is now 8 months old. It is hard to believe. She now does the following:

Kaden can sit up from lying down

She can pull up to a standing position

She can walk when holding on to our hands!

She is crawling fowards now!

She talks more and more.

She holds imaginary conversations with herself.

She has almost grown out of her 12 month clothes.

I have a few videos I want to upload. I don't know how to do it yet. As soon as I figure it out they will be up. Kaden is growing so fast and is so active now!

Misc Pictures

We had a baby shower at work for Luly and Jean Max (they are expecting a baby boy on August 26). Kaden attended and wore this special outfit that Granddaddy gave her.
Kaden loves to look at her book of pictures. It is so cute, she talks to the book like she is having a conversation.

Now Kaden can stand up alone. She can almost pull herself to standing as well.

Look at those curls.

I love this picture of Kaden and Gilbert. This is from when we went to watch the Dolphins practice.

Yum! Yum!

Then and Now

This is Kaden before at 3 weeks old.

This is Kaden now at almost 8 months old. She has grown so much. We also had to put the bouncy seat up. Kaden was leaning out of it to the point where she was about to flip the seat over. We decided it was time to put it up. My baby is growing so fast.

Wake Up Call and Pregnancy Update

This weekend I had a big wake up call. Kaden has just started wearing size 12 months clothes. She only wore 9 month clothes for a month or a month and a half. When I went to buy some 12 month clothes she has moved up a section. This just reminded me how fast she is growing.

Her hair is curling now. Her hair on top of her head is curly. This weekend the curls were just standing up on her head, it looked so funny. I am going to try and get a picture of this.

Pregnancy Update:
I realized I don't talk much about this pregnancy. I feel bad for the poor little girl but we have not forgotten her! I am 25 weeks pregnant now and just went to the doctor. I had a great check up!

Weight Gain so far this pregnancy: 3 pounds: excellent!

Blood pressure: excellent!

Protein in urine: NONE: excellent!

Swelling: NONE: excellent!

I have been worried that my blood pressure was going to get high like it did with Kaden. But so far so good. We just keep praying that it will stay in check.

Other than feeling tired and that how am I going to make it 3 more months (especially in this heat), I am doing good. I miss being able to nap when I want too like I could when I was pregnant with Kaden. It is very different to be pregnant with a little one at home.

New Pics

Kaden is doing very well moving and crawling around now.
We went to our friends baby shower last Saturday and Kaden just couldn't make it the entire time before she fell asleep.

Kaden is still just crawling backwards. She can get up on all fours and rock. Also yesterday her teacher told me she is trying to pull herself to stand now!

Kaden always wants to eat what Mommy and Daddy are eating. Yesterday she helped herself to Daddy's plum.

7 Months Old

I love this picture of Kaden with her Daddy.
Kaden loves to reach for the tv remotes and change the channel.


I am such a big girl that I can hold my bottle and I like to drink water now too.

We told Kaden that this is not very lady like. She loves to put her feet up on the things on her bouncy seat.

Kaden playing in her play pen.

I can't believe that Kaden is 7 months old now. She is growing so fast.

Things Kaden can do at 7 months:

Wave bye bye

Say PaPa

Drinks water

Crawls but just backwards

Loves to talk to the dogs

Loves to talk in general

NC Beach Trip

Kaden sun bathing. I love this picture, she thinks she is so grown!
Mommy and Kaden

Kaden kind of liked the sand. Her first experience was not so good but when we went back the second time she was much happier.

It was very nice to be able to go to the beach, relax, and hang out with family. My mom, dad, and sister came to meet us at the beach. It had been since February that they had seen Kaden. It was nice to have all of the extra hands. At first it felt weird to have so much help, but I got used to it really fast. The last part of our trip was not to enjoyable for me. I got very sick and had to go to the hospital. I was throwing up and couldn't stop nor could I keep anything down. Since I'm pregnant we didn't mess around. I went and got some medicine and fluids to rehydrate me. Whatever I had lasted in some form or another for almost 5 days. I am very glad to be feeling better. These pictures are just a start. We have so many good pictures, I am having a hard time choosing which ones to post. There will be more to come soon!
