Driving With Daddy

Don't worry I didn't let them go anywhere. Does someone look like his dad or what?

Cade's Photo Shoot was Outside Today (can you tell I don't go to school on Mondays)

He was a little too scared to be alone on the swing.

Uncle Tyler's Soccer Game

Cade thinks watching soccer is boring and not to mention cold.

Loving his Harley Dog

What a Messy Eater!

After Cade's jaw surgery, we laid off on the foods by mouth because he was in pain. So when we started again he didn't do very good and the therapist told me to let him try anything. He loves to eat now and he eats yogurt (seen here), mashed potatoes, refried beans, baby foods, licorice, slim jims, banana cookies and I have started trying to give him liquids in a cup. He is doing pretty good.

Enjoying the Beautiful Day

I bet all you people up north in "God's Country" with your two feet of snow are a little bit jealous of 80 degrees.

Quality Time with Auntie Robbie

Thanks Uncle Travis!

Uncle Travis spent two whole days of his three day vacation sitting in the hospital with Cade this week so I could go to school and Shane could work. Thank you so much Travis. Also thanks to Robyn, Beth, Sarah, Mom and Dad who also sat with Cade for us. We really appreciate it! When he is in the hospital, it is really hard to be there with him at all times. Cade came home Friday and is not quite 100% but he is getting there.

When Cade go his Pins Out

Haley went with me when Cade got his pins out and we thought the file they placed on his bed was lots of kids files but it turns out that it was all his. And you know what is sad, he has only been at this hospital since he was 9 months old.

Cade is in the hospital... again

We took Cade to the hospital last Saturday because he was working very hard to breathe. It turns out that he has a viral infection and he was having an asthma attack. He was admitted and is still working hard to breathe. He is in the PICU but should move to the floor today. He is sleeping a lot and is grumpy when he wakes up because he hates his breathing treatments. I got him to smile a couple of times but not until I got out the camera. And the doctors put little fatty on his first diet. We are really cutting back on his calories.

Working on Sitting...

We aren't supposed to let him watch TV but whatever works. He sits the best when focusing on the TV. He is still a little wobbly but he is getting much better.

Katy and Amanda came to visit

He was trying to make Blaine and Kyle jealous

We don't like for Cade to be a Smelly Kid...

So he has to be bathed often. This is not easy because Cade is becoming very active and he wants to play in the water. However, we have to be really careful to not get water in his trach. We can't wait for the day when we can let him have a good time in the bathtub.
