First Trip to the Farmers Market

Yesterday Cadel, Mom and Dad made our first trip to the Marin Farmers Market since Cadel was born. The weather was fantastic and Cadel was very interested in all the people and bright colored fruits and vegetables.
We are planning on this becoming our weekly family trip. Once Cadel is old enough Mom and Dad will ride our bikes to the market with him in tow behind us. Our neighbors also take their two small children to the Sunday Farmers Market. So who knows. Maybe it will become a neighborhood tradition.

Cadel is now rolling over all the time. He is also starting to scoot around on his own. He is not crawling yet but that isn't far away. Once he figures out how to use his arms he will be crawling all over the place. Good thing we already have a baby gate for the top of the stairs. Now we just need to see what the dog thinks of him once he get mobile.

Daycare starts & Cadel goes to the Giro

Last week Cadel started to attend New Moon daycare as mom headed back to work. Cadel handled the first day much easier than mom did. The daycare staff says he is doing great and is a fantastic addition to their other kids. There is only one other baby at the daycare so he and Cadel get lots of attention. The babies even have their own room none of the older kids are allowed to enter.
Besides lots of love Cadel goes out on walks almost every day and he is being exposed to spanish. The lady who takes care of the babies only speaks spanish to the kids. So now Cadel has one grandmother speaking German to him, one grandmother speaking Hebrew to him, Spanish at the daycare and English at home. This is going to be one linguistically versed kid.

This past weekend Cadel attended his first bicycle race. It was the San Francisco Metromint Giro. He was a very good boy cheering for our friend Mark and sleeping a couple times during the long day so mom and dad could relax. Cadel is definitely taking after dad's ability to sleep through just about anything. There were cheering fans, ringing cow bells, a loud announcer and even some crashes here and there. None of it seems to bother him as he slept in his stroller or watched the bikes fly by for hours.

Just as a side note check out some of the first pictures on this blog compared to the recent pictures. He is growing so fast!

Mommy got a new camera...

Here is Cadel in all of his handsome glory. There will be more to come. Mommy is making everyone sick of pictures :(

Last week Cadel had some new "firsts". He has mastered the roll from back to tummy and is working on the opposite way now. Our little boy also had his first laugh. We must now begin polishing up our jokes so we can hear him giggle some more.

Many more "firsts" to come. He is growing up so fast...
