Caden at 4.5

Caden's Preschool Picture taken on October 7, 2015


Caden is still our sweet, sensitive little guy. He loves school and has made some great new friends this year. He LOVES, LOVES reading and is doing really well reading books for beginning readers. Caden is doing so well with his writing too! Writing was not his favorite thing last year, but we worked on his grip this summer and now he really enjoys writing. Caden can write all of the letters, both upper and lower case. He's also really good at math and likes to count. He can count to 100 and do many simple addition problems. He's a lot like Justin in that he has great spatial perception. Caden also has pretty good spatial awareness, which I think he got from me:) He is still super helpful with Landen and Andie. He is in 5T clothes and size 9 shoes. He still loves to run, and his favorite outdoor activities are swinging and riding his new bike. Justin taught him to pump and he could swing high and jump off all day long.  

I interviewed Caden about some of his favorite things right now....here is the link to the video:)

Caden learned to ride his bike without training wheels this week! He asked to take them off on Sunday while Justin was winterizing the boat. We realized that his bike was too small so we took him to bicycle Village and got him a 16 inch Trek bike. Justin had him cruising in 15 minutes! He can now start and stop by himself too!:)
