Kaden Is Here!

Kaden Eugene was born at 11:39AM on May 25th, 2005. He weighed 9lbs, 14oz and was 23¼in. His blood sugar was way to low so he has been in the special care unit since yesterday after noon. They are weaning him off of the IV and if he can keep his levels up, he can stay in his mommies room. If everything goes well, they get to go home tomorrow! My Auntie is doing good. But she really doesn't like the food! We were going to bring her some Subway, but nobody will bring us up to the hospital.

Anyways.. Here are some pictures!

Before Kaden was born, we were waiting at grandma's house and Mom, Dante, and Ana had a "photo shoot" directed by Dante & Ana. I was sleeping at the time...











The sillies were wearing Grandma's glasses!

Dante and Ariana spent the night as well. Aunty Amy and Uncle Kerry were both in the hospital with Kaden. So I had my very first sleep over!

I just want to go to bed, Mom!

Dinner time didn't go so well tonight. I was WAY too tired to eat my cereal, as mom found out. She completely skipped the veggies all together! So she just gave me a bottle. But before that happened................



I HAD to get cereal all over my face!

Due Date

My Cousin Kaden was due to be born yesterday. He was a no show though. His mommy is expecting him to come on Tuesday the 24th of May. His older brother Dante was 7 days late. His older sister Ariana was 8 days late. So they think Kaden will be 9 days late. We both have appointments for our pictures to be taken on Sunday the 5th of June, so he better be here by then or he is going to miss his appointment. Mom says there is nothing to worry about though. If he doesn't come out by the middle of next week, they'll make him come out. I am really excited to see him though and I hope he makes it sooner than that!

Yay!

I rolled from my back to my belly yesterday and then again 3 times this morning! The only bad thing... my left arm always gets stuck, so I go face first into the floor!

I got my very first cold on Tuesday, May 2nd. Well I caught it on Sunday, but it didn't rear its ugly head until Tuesday. I took my first cold medicine. I got over it pretty quickly, but I think it is coming back. Mom and Dad got sick too. Dad got it worse so far, Mom JUST got the cold today.

On Mother's Day, Daddy got Mommy flowers the day before, they were supposed to come with a bear... but the bear didn't come. I got mom a card. A really cute card. She really liked it. We went over to Grandma Mary's house for a BBQ. I went in a walker for the very first time. I figured out how to go backwards... but I couldn't go any other way. And then we all had to try and talk Aunty Amy out of doing a Cartwheel. She was 39 Weeks Pregnant on Sunday.. and we really didn't want her to hurt herself.. or my baby cousin Kaden! It is Thursday now, and Amy is 39 Weeks and 4 Days. This Sunday coming up will be her due date! We are all very excited!

This Monday, I started Vegetables. Organic Sweet Peas. At first I ate them right up... but then they started to get a little iffy. By Day Three - I was spitting them out at mom. Tonight is my last night of Peas. Tomorrow morning mom says I am going to try some fruits in my cereal. That should be pretty good.

More Pictures

My great grandma and great grandpa stayed at our house this weekend. I wasn't very comfortable with great grandma, but great grandpa picked me up for the very first time on Sunday and I didn't cry at all.



I turned 5 Months on Friday. Mom forgot to take a picture of me though. She got one on Sunday though. Sitting in Dad's computer chair!



April 20th I receive a hat in the mail from Gymboree. My friends June and Dayanara bought it for me. I think it looks great!



April 24th Mom set me down in the Papasan chair while she changed clothes. I must have looked pretty cute because she took some pictures of me!



I better go back to sleep now, TTYL!!
