4th of July 2014

We didn't do anything too exciting for the 4th but definitely crammed alot of entertainment for lil man in one weekend.  He definitely keeps us busy.  There were tractor rides, wagon rides, swimming, playing with other kids, having fun with toads, and more.  It was an eventful weekend for sure.  Rick's side of the family came to their house and we had a cookout.  Caedmon had fun playing with the other kids. 

Caedmon is starting to like the pool more the more he is in it.  At the beginning of the summer it was like he forgot what the pool was and was afraid of it.  He would cling on to us for dear life.  Now he is doing better and better and actually gets excited about getting into the water.  I have been taking him to the YMCA to get used to the water.  He fell down in the baby pool a couple of times and didn't cry about getting a face full of water. 

A funny story about the tractor rides.  Gpa Rick took Caedmon for a ride on the riding lawn mower (aka tractor) and he seemed to love it.  Then ever since he has been scared of it.  Rick has left it in the yard for him to look at and get used to.  Caedmon would even point at it but wouldn't go near it.  He also growls at it when he is pointing at it.  It is too funny.  And Rick would from time to time would drive it around the yard and Caedmon would watch him the whole time.  Then I decided I would get on there and drive it around the yard.  And Gma and Gpa got on the back of the wagon and we rode around the yard.  Caedmon watched us.  Then I drove up toward Caedmon and stopped and we asked if he wanted to get on.  He got on the wagon with Gma and Gpa.  He had a serious look on his face but he seemed to not mind it.  Then we stopped and got off of the tractor.  Later, Caedmon would grab our finger and lead us to the tractor as if he wanted to go again.  So Gpa Rick took him for a ride with Gma holding him in the wagon and he cried.  Then I got behind the wheel and Caedmon didn't cry.  Sweet boy only wanted his mommy to drive the tractor.  LOL!!   Love him so much!
