So 10 months hit and Cade has become a ever moving wild man. Not unruly but just fearless and wanting to do anything and everything. i joke that he tries to kill himself everyday with ordinary things that one would never think could do any harm. He is still all smiles and all boy. He loves trucks, and wheels, bikes, and balls. He has smelly feet and licks anything and everything. He had a good first christmas but was a bit overwhelmed by everything so that was a little anti-climactic. He loves to play and loves to explore new things. He has found the joy of a cardboard box and still thinks harry is hysterical. He loves to hang upside down and ride on anything that moves: his bike, our old rocking horse or his train. He loves brushing his teeth and now laughs at things that are funny. He just started saying doe and pointing at harry and says mmmm when he likes certain foods. He also laughs when i take off my glasses apparently that is funny looking to him.
3 weeks ago we took him down the slide and thought we'd video his first time down the slide and only to have his leg bent back and him scream bloody murder at the end. I was filming and the sun was in my ideas so i had no idea what happened. we took him to minor injury the next day and he got a foot x-ray and they said it was fine, 2 weeks later i took him back because he didn't want to stand on it and would wince occasionally. come to find out he had fractured his tibia(shin bone) and had been crawling and cruising around on it that whole time. So now he is in a full leg cast! And we just found out today that he gets it off on the 27th!!! We can't wait because he is a stinky boy, sponge baths are not good enough for him and his cast smells awful already!!! He's a trooper but it has screwed with his sleep so much. we also realized how much pain he must have been in before because now he crawls everywhere, pulls up on anything, cruises around the furniture, climbs over stuff, tries to walk, takes steps, and flings himself at things. He is adorable with his cute orange cast!
As for us, we are just starting our process of fundraising for our position in santa cruz. Most think it is crazy to take on that task but we know it is where God is calling us and know He will provide. I'm in process of writing our letter right now and will post it with the pic as soon as i finish as it shares our process over the past few years since we've been back.
We feel immensely blessed by our friends, family and the Lord's leading. We can't wait to see what is in store for this next season. We love you all!
