All Kinds of New Tricks

Guess who rolled over!  Baby Cade, that's who!  We were on the floor at Grandma Vickie's house doing tummy time when all of the sudden... he just rolled right over!  He had a big audience too.  We all clapped and made a big fuss...probably scared him right out of wanting to try it again.  Haha!  He hasn't rolled over again since then, but I'm sure it won't be long before we see his latest trick once more. 

We also started giving Cade rice cereal this past Monday.  I had decided that I was going to wait until he was 6 months old because I have read that it's best to wait and also I just didn't feel ready, BUT I've been noticing that he has seemed hungrier than usual.  He also showed all the signs of being ready to start solids - can hold his head steady, can sit with support, opened his mouth when an empty spoon came towards it, etc. so I decided to jump in.  I'm so glad I did.  Cade LOVED the cereal!  After the first bite he was very eager to continue eating it and once we were done, he kind of cried out of frustration - seeming like he wanted more.  We were afraid to give him too much since we've just started, but I definitely think we made the right decision.

He's also started grabbing his feet with his hands.  Today I caught him trying to put his foot in his mouth!  Unfortunately, the camera was downstairs so I didn't get a picture of this one.  :(

I know Cade has many more tricks up his sleeve just waiting to emerge.  We can't wait!

Oh and in case I look back and wonder when all this newness occurred - Cade is four months and two weeks old.  :)
