Our Little Man

Our BABY is growing up too fast. This last week has been really exciting for us in the Herrscher home. Caden has finally figured out how to rollover AGAIN. He is now a pro going from belly to back, but has yet to figure out the other direction. Last Monday he rolled over three times in a row and by Tuesday any time we put him on his belly he would instantly roll to his back. He would then get a HUGE smile on his little face...it was really sweet.

Caden also spoke his first word, DADA of course, on Friday night. Brian was really excited. I was excited too, but a little disappointed it was not mama. I know dada is easier to say so that is my excuse as to why that was his first word =). Either way our little man is now talking.

Caden also stood up on his own for 2-3 seconds on Sunday night. I was holding his hands while he was standing and he let go of my hands and stood there. I was so excited I screamed which scared him and caused him to fall to the ground.

Lastly, Caden is randomly making a funny face. It started on Sunday where he did it multiple times in a row. It made us laugh which really pleased him. Grandma Herrscher said he did it today too while she was watching him.

Needless to say Caden is growing up quickly. It is really hard for me to believe that our little boy is already eight months old. I have really enjoyed being a mom thus far; Caden is such a blessing in our lives. He brings so much joy and happiness to our home. I thank God each day for blessing me with such a wonderful family.

He is surpassing B. She has not yet said any words, but I am sure that she will give him a run for his money once she does.
