We've spent the past week getting into the Christmas spirit and hanging out with friends. Tuesday night we had a cookie baking party at our house for a small group of friends, Wednesday we had a play date with Leslie and Ella Ogrodowicz, Thursday was our big day at the mall to Santa, and last night James and I got to go out with the res life staff to a MTSU/Vanderbilt men's basketball game. We got seats in the all you can eat and drink zone, so it was pretty fun. Melissa and Erica James watched Cadence while we were out, and all reports state that she was great for them!
Cadence has been so much fun lately--she can pretty much sit up on her own (she still falls occasionally but it's never too bad), and she loves to just sit and play in her room. No new foods yet, although I did give her a chance to use a sippy cup this week and she loves to play with it and take little sips here and there. I've also been trying to feed her more during her two mini meals, usually pears and oatmeal in the morning and pears and sweet potatoes in the evening. I'd like to introduce apples, but I'm afraid they'll make her constipated, so until she gets that all under control I'll stick with those easy to digest foods.
I can't believe it's only 3 days until Christmas! We have been so blessed this year by the generosity and kindness of our friends and family, it is clear every day, but even more obvious around the holidays.
