Aren't they darling?! Sorry, my husband and I snuck in there too! :)
Cadence is now a little over 3 and 1/2, and I am just scratching my head wondering where all that time went?!
She surprises me everyday! She is sweet, full of wonder, has the biggest imagination, loves everyone, and I could go and on!
We have started doing some "school", learning our numbers, colors, and about the Bible! A neat moment with her is the first day we started "school". I was teaching her about the number zero. I had drawn the number and written below it the actual word ZERO. I held the piece of paper up and told her that we were going to be learning about the number zero today, she looked at the paper and said, "Z-E-R-O, does that spell zero momma?" Needless to say I was speechless! There I was just trying to teach her a simple number and she was spelling! Like I said, she surprises me every day!!
Another update for Cadence is that she is know a FULL OUT Disney fanatic! She is particularly obsessed with Ariel, and Cinderella. Depends on which day you catch her! Today was a Cinderella day, she was dancing around the living room singing, "So this is love, mmmm...so this is love, mmmm." She loves to sing! My favorite song that she belts on regular occassion is "Nothing but the Blood of Jesus." Nothing will warm your heart more than hearing your child sing about The Lord. She is really soaking up and understanding her lessons in Sunday school class, and she tells us a lot about all the miracles Jesus performed and even what He did for us on the cross! She has even begun asking to pray before meals and at bedtime! I pray she always keeps her enthusiasm for things of God! Another cute moment with Cadence (and then I'm done, I promise), is we were at the Fresh Market (which there WILL be a future post on this place, LOVE IT), and we were looking at some fresh bread they had baked and they also had some fresh cookies there, We asked her if she wanted one. She stopped and looked at all the different bread that was there, and the cookies, but then something caught her eye! She told Josh that she wanted the Jesus bread!! We were both a little confused, so we asked her why she called it Jesus bread and she began to tell us about how Jesus took that bread and two fishes and fed all the people! Josh and I just stood there in that store and listened to her tell us all about that miracle that Jesus performed! What a sweet, and smart little girl God has blessed us with! :)
OK, OK! I'm moving on! Now onto my second born, my sweet Judah Michael!
Judah is now almost 8 and 1/2 months old! UNBELIEVABLE! He is growing so so fast!
Look at those cheeks!!! :)
Judah is such a sweet child. He can say Da da, and people have told me he says mama, but I have yet to hear it myself. He can sit up, hold his own bottle and sippy cup (He's old enough to have a sippy cup!?), and he can roll just about anywhere. He has been trying so hard to crawl, but the poor boy just cannot get it! He can get up on his knees and push a little bit, but then falls right back on his tummy and gets frustrated. Oh well! it will come in time! :) He is a great eater! He eats oatmeal and fruit in the morning, and an assortment of vegetables and fruits at lunch and supper. A interesting thing about Judah is he loves to copy. When someone clicks their tongue, he clicks his right back! Or if you grunt at him, he will grunt right back. That is, if he is in the mood too - Judah has always been a "on his terms" kinda child. He is also sleeping through the night now! HALLELUJAH!!!! Only took him 6 months, but he has finally got the hang of it. AMEN! (sorry, it was an exciting time). Judah is also a cuddler and blanket lover. He never liked a pacifier, his comfort is found in his blanket. Which I can only imagine the craziness that is going to be later on...but I'm not going to stress too much about that just yet...he is still little...right?! And he LOVES to be held and cuddled, which I don't mind AT ALL! He is definitley a momma's boy! (LOVE IT) There is just something about when you walk into a room and your baby goes crazy with smiles and excitment! Makes my heart soar!
This picture was after he got his first haircut!! I cried....it was devestating. He is growing too fast!
Well, I think I have bragged on my kids enough for this post. Hope it wasn't too bad! :) I am truly blessed with some sweet, amazing children! :) Until next time!
I LOVE hearing about your kiddos! Keep it coming. I can't hear and see EVERYTHING at church! :)
