Andrea's Wedding!!

One of my best friends got married last weekend! The wedding was amazing, the food was great, decorations were beautiful and she looked gorgeous! Andrea and I met in the dorms our freshman year of college at Texas Tech. We instantly became inseparable and ended up living together for 3 years until she moved to south Texas. Even though we live miles apart and only see each other a couple of times a year, we are still as close as ever. Andrea is one of those friends that I have fun with no matter where we are or what we are doing. Cody jokes that he will soon have to warn Caden about what happens when his mom and "aunt annie" get together! :)

Here are a few pictures from the weekend....

No, nerves didn't get the best of her. She is brushing her teeth

And now starts the Caden photo shoot... Oh be still my beating heart!!!!

Daddy and his look-alike

The poor baby boy was so sleepy through it all... until we got him back to the hotel room and we were ready to sleep.

Gigi and Pop made it to the wedding

LOVE. THIS. BOY.

Caden-2 months

Cade man at 2 months old. His appointment went really well. I LOVE his new pediatrician (our last one was in Lubbock). Caden weighed in at 12 lbs 3 oz. and was 23 1/2 inches long. That puts him in about the 75th percentile. He just recently started his social smile, does a LOT of cooing and is happiest in the mornings after he eats. And he is still as squirmy as ever. This kid is seriously always moving (just like he was when I was pregnant) and he always wants me moving when i'm holding him.

He's getting more fun every day and already growing too fast!

Andrea's Bachelorette Party

I love Caden more than anything in the world, but I have been dying to get out and do something on my own that didn't revolve around him. So Andrea's bachelorette party was the perfect way to do it! I left Caden with Cody for the night. The girls and I stayed at the Gaylord Texan hotel in Grapevine. We ate at the steakhouse there (best steak I have ever had) had a lingerie shower for her in the room, and then a few of us went to a bar right next to the hotel. Andrea is one of those friends that no matter what it is we are doing, we have a blast together. She is a pharmacist in the Houston area so we don't get to see each other nearly enough.

Sadly, it's been a while since any of us have stayed up that late. We ~~made fools of ourselves~~ had a great time!

I sure was excited to see my little man when I got home!

Next few weeks with Caden

Caden's Baptism

Caden and Audrey hanging out at our family's annual "dove hunt" weekend.

Bath time!

Caden's social smile started around 7 1/2 weeks. The first time he really smiled at me was in the middle of the night when I was complaining to Cody about how Caden won't go back to sleep...blah blah blah... and I look down to see Caden looking at me with a huge grin. Talk about melting my heart!! I no longer cared that he was keeping me awake. This is the best picture I got around that time that he first started smiling.

These first 2 months have flown by!

First few weeks with Caden

The first few weeks after Caden was born were chaotic. The first two weeks were spent drivng back and forth to Lubbock 3 different times. We were busy moving me out of Lubbock, moving Cody out of Seymour and putting us in Wichita Falls. About a week after he was born we had a garage sale. My mom and dad came to Lubbock to help out. This was my dad's contribution. I caught them napping. (Caden loves laying like this).
