6 month stats

Lest you think Caden is actually only 6 months old right now, he's not! He is 9 months old. I am just way behind on blog posts...

Here are Cade's 6 month's stats:

weight - 17 lbs 4 oz (50th percentile)
height - 27 inches (75th percentile)
head - 17 inches (35 percentile)

He is beginning to sit up although I don't trust him by himself yet! We started on sweet potatoes and he seems okay with it! Next in line are zucchini and squash. I have already managed to burn the heck out of my steamer because I didn't put enough water in it. Of course, this happened moments before Ben came home from work. I'm fairly certain Ben thinks crazy things happen at our house during the day but they typically they happen seconds before he gets home. :)

If you can't laugh at yourself and your mistakes, then who will?? Oh yes, MY TWIN SISTER WILL! We routinely laugh so hard at each other's mishaps.

We just passed April Fool's Day and I had vivid memories of switching classes for the entire day of school. In elementary school, we even tried to change handwritings so we wouldn't get caught. One time we were working on multiplication tables and I was on the 8's or 9's and Whitney was on the 2's. The only thing I asked of Whitney was that she NOT just put 0 and 1 for all the answers. Ha! She put 0 and 1 everywhere and I passed her on the 2's!! :) I also remember switching in 10th grade and our English teacher figured it out (we were in the same class but sat far away from each other) because the person sitting in Whitney's spot was asking entirely too many questions to actually be Whitney. She looked straight at me and asked why I was sitting in Whitney's seat! Oh the memories. Can you tell I absolutely LOVE being a twin?

 Riley and Macy on a play date!

 Aunt Grace's visit to D-town.

 Riley has discovered the greatness of costumes and that Mom kept all of our costumes so she has about 50 to choose from!

 LA reading a story to Riley. She is quite the captive audience!

 Hanging on top of the couch for some deep conversations. They then dive face first off the couch and 4 times out of 5 end up hitting heads with each other. Tears are shed and then the process starts all over!
