8 months and on the move

Caden turned 8 months old yesterday. Where has the time gone? I'm pretty sure I will be saying this for the rest of my life. It's amazing how watching a child grow can speed up time. Just this weekend I was going through some clothes and reminiscing about when he was little (I know, I know, he's still little, but anyways...you know what mean).

In honor of turning 8 months old Caden decided to start crawling. We are so proud of him! He has been sooo close the last week or so. I had hoped he would crawl over the weekend and I was a little bummed when he didn't because I didn't want to miss this important moment. It's sometimes hard to be a mom who works outside the home knowing that you are going to miss some of your child's firsts. I'm so glad Dana and I both got to witness this special moment together.

P.S. - Time to childproof. Caden found the birthday presents I bought for his friends. I was hiding them under his slide since it's an out of the way place that he didn't (PAST TENSE) get into. :)

He is SO sweet! Is that the remote he's crawling for? We used to toss ours across the floor to get Tristan to crawl -- he was an army crawler for the longest time. :)
