5 Month Stats and UPDATE

So since the last post, Cadence turned 5 months and she's almost 6 months now. OOPS! I took her to get weighed and measured at the Health Unit here in Raymond on October 26th and here are the stats:

Weight: 16 lbs 3 oz
Height: 26 inches

Cadence has mastered sitting up all by herself without anything surrounding her to prop herself up. She lunges at toys that are in front of her and can pull herself forward to her knees (she'll be crawling soon). When she's on her tummy she'll turn herself to get the toys that are around her. She loves hair and pulling on it (imagine that) lol.

Cadence is still breastfed but she eats Rice Cereal, Barley Cereal or Vegetables just before she goes to bed because I'm sick of waking up every 2 hours to feed her during the night. YIKES! She loves Carrots, Sweet Potatoes, Apples, and as of last night PEAS.... She gets so excited to eat solids, she acts as if she's never eaten a day in her life. She'll open her mouth and flap her arms in excitement like a little chick would do. She feeds herself Rice Crackers which she loves to nibble on throughout the day, a great snack while we're at church and don't want to leave the lesson.

2 weeks ago I got my Wisdom Teeth yanked and the first couple days were really good pain wise and as soon as day 4 hit, boy was I in pain... I was taking Ibuprofen every 4 hours and Tylenol in between those doses and I could still feel the pain. I think I had a couple of dry sockets which are much better now. Good thing you only have to get your wisdom teeth pulled once in your lifetime. OUCH!!

Andrew is almost done rebuilding his engine for his Laser and he couldn't be happier. He has also applied to the Lethbridge College for the Wind Turbine course and I'm hoping he gets accepted because he wants to get a better job and in order to get anything better you have to go to school. We pray that this works out for him.

Oh ya and Cadence dressed up as a butterfly for Halloween. We didn't go trick-or-treating because we were busy but we dressed her up and took pictures anyway.

That's pretty much it for now. Stay tuned for 6 month stats!! :)
