6 weeks old

Caden is 6 weeks old today.  We went to the doctor yesterday for his 6 week appointment.  He weighs 8lbs and 8oz!  That's a big change from his birth weight of 5lbs and 3oz!  I told you he liked to eat!  He is 20 and 3/4 inches long and his head circumference is 14 and 1/2 inches.  He is in the 90-97 percentile on the preemie chart and is actually on the full term chart now, too.  We both got good reports and are so thankful that he is healthy and growing. He is staying awake more now and is so much fun.  We've been reading books and listening to music.  Mitch is reading him a Proverb a day this month and I like to sing to him.  He stopped wearing preemie clothes and diapers at 4 weeks.

What a difference a month makes!!

We celebrated Mitch's birthday with his family a little late since we were still in the hospital on his birthday.

Nap time with Daddy

What a cutie!

Fun with Aunt Shannon, Aunt Megan and Owen

One of our favorite things to do is take a nap on the couch.  Caden will wiggle himself over toward you until his face is touching yours.  He loves to snuggle!
