What a Weekend!

We have had so much fun this past week. Ann and Michelle came to visit on Friday. Cade is such a lucky kid to have such great grandparents, aunts, and uncles! Michelle stayed until Sunday, and Ann left this afternoon. They babysat Cade for us on Saturday while Russ and I went to the afternoon session of conference. That was the first time that I've been away from Cade for over two hours. Michelle was so sweet... she knew that I was really nervous about leaving him (even though I couldn't have left him in better hands), so she texted me updates every 1/2 hr... "He's sleeping", "He just took his bottle", and "He's sitting in his bouncy seat and smiling right now." I swore that I would never be one of THOSE moms who freaked out when leaving her baby... but it's a lot harder than it looks!!

We had a great time at conference. We met up with our friends Taylor and Carla from Georgia. It was great to see them and conference was awesome.

Needless to say, Cade was spoiled this past week. Ann bought him some adorable clothes... my favorite was this pair of pumpkin pajamas, with a pumpkin on the butt... his red hair just glows off of the orange! She also got him this activity center that is so cute... and Cade loves it. I think that he really enjoys seeing the world from a different angle than from his bouncy seat!He also really started sucking on things this weekend... his fists, his thumbs, his toes... he even figured out how to pick his nose with his toes (he must have gotten that talent from his dad)...

Here's Cade perfectly content... he's got his thumb and his Nana, what more could a kid ask for?

We love you Ann, thanks for coming! We hope that you had as much fun as we did this weekend. We can't wait to do it again soon :)
