Holidays

It is so interesting to see how Kadi is reacting to the changing of the seasons and the coming of the Holidays. With Thanksgiving, she really enjoyed seeing the family and all of the food! Sweet Potatoes were definitely her favorite! She did have a turkey coma after dinner and napped on the couch. As we prepared our house for Christmas, we really wanted to include her in every way possible. Kadi put the first ornament on the tree and helped daddy put the angel on the top. Now everyday, she enjoys when the tree is lit and constantly wants to "see it" as she says. Daddy put up the decorations outside (as usual!) and Kadi LOVES to see the lights twinkling outside. We are also dealing with the loss of Grandpop Heilig. As her only great-grandfather, I just wish she had gotten a better chance to know him. The viewing is tomorrow so we will be getting an opportunity to see some family that we normally do not get to see.
As for the updates, she now says mama and dada, see it, that, and na-na for night night. It is really amazing how she is growing and learning so much. She is crawling all over and she now can stand on her own, but is afraid to take that first step! I for one am thinking she may be walking by Christmas but who knows. She has 6 teeth (4 on top and 2 on the bottom).
She loves her couch that she got for her birthday from mom-mom and pop-pop. Her other favorite toys are probably her shopping cart, her life-size house, and her baby dolls.
I will try to continue to update as often as I can!
