Six Years Old

He's six years old! 


He recently went to Dr. Brooks for his well child check and got a great report. He is 47 1/2" tall and weighs 47 pounds.  He's wearing size 13 1/2 shoes and 5/6 clothes. He went to the eye doctor a couple weeks ago and she said his vision was 20/15. 

Caden loves:

Sports-

He is finishing up his first season of T-ball this month.  It was really fun to watch him play.  He and his cousin, Owen, got to play together and have their dads coach.  All of the family enjoyed our summer evenings at Lansing City Park watching these two play.





He played soccer last fall for his 3rd season and decided to skip soccer this spring so he could play T-ball.  We're looking forward to him trying Upward Basketball this winter.




We love watching sports and went to a Sporting KC game, KU football game, T-Bones baseball game and a KU basketball game.

Travel-

This past fall we went to Branson and then camped in Eminence, MO.



This spring we took a trip to La Crosse, WI, Stillwater, MN, Fargo, ND and Sioux Falls, SD.  

We crossed 3 new states off of his list.  16 states before 6 years old.

School-

Caden started Kindergarten this year!  We did school 4 days a week and are continuing through the summer with a lighter schedule to finish up his school days.  He learned to read this year and is doing so well with it.  He enjoys history and we've read about lots of our presidents this year.  One of our favorite books was, "The Attributes of God" and he was able to learn a new Bible verse each week. Math is still a favorite and handwriting and language require some convincing to be completed. :) He loves for us to read to him and we read countless books this past year.


Other highlights of the year-

Caden got to be a part of Aunt Shannon and Uncle Alex's wedding.
