Dad is recovering from extensive arm surgery getting 15 some screws and metal frame restructuring his mangled arm. Thank God for blessings and health. Pastor Keith came by and said prayer for us as.well.

Earlier today, Sasha caused an uproar with diving into Kayden's umbrella stroller. Later things were resolved but there is a silent feud of toys.

Here is Sasha in her favorite place, on Daddy's lap. She is naughty but makes up for it with lovies.

In case I haven't mentioned before, here is my little well-fed baby Neena. She is jealous of Sasha resting on me and is now meowing for Daddy to get moths for her to chase.

Kayden is over 9 months now and will soon celebrate his 1st birthday. We are getting some ideas for home decor for his birthday that he won't remember. Still, it will be fun to see him eat his cake, likely with fingers, then spoon, and finally hand and full on face. I have already used thick plastic to cover floor, good thing as cake will be much messier. Silly boy has not yet shown a way to say "yes", but will shake head for "no".

Kayden's bath time

breakfasts

Kayden is very much into feeding himself.  Today breakfast is mostly on his lap napkin and face.  He likes many foods, if only he feeds himself.  He is eating blackberries, eggs, crackers, and applesauce.  He likes yogurt also.  I wonder if this strong will and thirst for independence will continue ... hmm.
