The Best Book Ever!!

The Girton Boys take a minute to check out the "best book ever!" This years edition of Inside Indiana, the booklet that tells you all about this years Hoosier Basketball team. I think Kade was the most excited about it, he looked at that book for about 1 hour! Daddy is so proud.

Reading the Paper

Kade has started reading the sports page. He loves to "read" it to us and point and tell us all about the pictures!

Halloween Parade

I took Kade down to Amboy for the Halloween parade last Sunday. He was a very cute skunk. He loved the costume, but really didn't talk or smile when he was in it! His cousin Haleigh was a duck, which is one of Kade's words he says, but he wouldn't say it for anything!!

Picking Pumpkins

Kade was hilarious picking pumpkins. First of all he thought they were all basketballs and so he kept saying "shoot it" and trying to pick them up. We have a pumpkin patch right down the road that is self serve, so we were the only ones there so he just ran around and loved it!!

Firetruck

Kade got a firetruck for his birthday from Uncle Chris and Aunt Kristin. He just figured out how to ride it, although he still prefers to push it up and down the halls. It has three "wonderful" little tunes it plays, which we all know by heart now. Just remember you two, paybacks are HELL!!!

Kade's Jungle Gym

Kade loves to climb through the chairs in the dining room, haven't figured out why this is so fun, but whatever keeps him happy!!

Kade vs the cake

He wasn't sure what to do with the cake at first, then once he figured it out...look out. He basically put the whole cupcake in his mouth!

We had Kade's first birthday party over Labor Day weekend, but before the party got started there was an announcement that Kade needed to make...he's going to be a big brother!!

Playin' with Daddy

Kade thinks it is so much fun to take daddy's hat and sunglasses off and on.

Kade's new thing is shooting hoops, he is obsessed! The first thing he says in the morning when we go in to get him up is "shoot." It is crazy to us that he understands at 11 months!

We went to Chris and Kristin's to build a deck in July and these are a few pics from that trip. He me their friend's daughter and lets just say he needs to practice his "moves"!

4th of July Festivities!

Sorry avid site checkers we've been busy! On the 4th Kade got his 1st firetruck ride, courtesy of Grandpa Stenzel! He loved it. Then we went to the pool. It was hot out, so I figured he would love it. Oh no, hated it. Cried until we took him out. We managed to calm him down to get a few pics.

Old Pics that Grandma had!

Nate's mom had these on her camera and I just got them, they are about 2-3 months old, but cute!

Exploring new frontiers

Kade just found a new thing to empty for me...the drawers in the kitchen. He likes to take out the metal stuff and drop it on the floor. Apparently this is hilarious.

Mac N CHEESE!

Kade got his first taste of mac n cheese the other day, I would say he liked it!

Mommy, look at me, I can walk!

Yesterday Kade discovered how to use the little cart to walk. He took about 4 steps then turned and looked at me and laughed. His longest walk was across the living room. I don't know whether I am glad about this or really sad. I don't think I am quite ready for him to get up and walk!

Happy Father's Day

Nate had a rough night on Saturday night before Father's Day. His best friend got married and he was still feelin' it on Sunday morning. So as you can see from the first picture, he didn't want to get up the next morning, but Kade wanted to wish him a Happy Father's Day nice and early. Then I don't know who liked the jumbo remote more, Kade or Daddy!

Play Ball :)

Kade can play ball. Yesterday, out of nowhere, he started throwing the ball back and forth with anyone who will sit and play. He will actually hold the ball over his head and if you say "shoot it" he will throw it to you. Daddy is SO PROUD!!

Kade's Bad Day:(

The past few days have been rough for poor Kade. We have a wedding next weekend, so I just knew he would end up getting dinged up before then! He is "cruising" around the living room and gets off balance. He fell twice yesterday right on his face on the tile floors and came out with nothing...Today was a different story. The first was to the forehead, he fell into the stool that pins him in the living room, then the big one. He fell onto the subwoofer that he is NOT supposed to touch and cut the inside of his upper lip with his teeth! So there was blood and then the fat lip. So I am hoping that the lip and forehead look better for the weekend. Isn't he so sad looking!!
