Today is Cadence's half birthday! She woke up so happy and excited this morning, it was like she knew of the great occasion. Granted we didn't do anything special to celebrate, but she did have a great day today, full of activities and smiles.
First we went to watch James, Kelly, Jamison, AJ, Amanda, and Adam Mansell present The Grinch Who Stole Christmas in chapel. It was the last time James was going to be the grinch, so I wanted Cadence to be there for it. Then we brought the ice cream cake I made up to lunch for James's advisees, and after that we were off to take Charles Li to the dentist and run some errands at Walmart and the post office. We managed to get everything done, including a break to feed and change Cadence, and got to the dentist just as Charles was checking out. And not a single fussy moment from the C-dog!
Then we got back and drove James home from work, and it was time to set up the concessions stand for the basketball game. This was our 4th set of games in 5 days, so I am SO glad to take a break.
I did an unofficial measurement of Cadence this afternoon, and I would guess she's at 16 pounds and 28.5 inches. Big growing girl! So far she's had tastes of banana, pear, and sweet potatoes, and we have apples waiting in the freezer. I actually really enjoy making her baby food because I can make so many meals with such little food! Big impact!
Cadence was sleeping so well, but the past few nights have been a little rough, but I do believe it's time for another growth spurt, so I will blame that.
