Coming soon...

  I have a lot of pictures to post.  Hopefully, next week I will be able to work on them and post.

  We have been on vacation so there are plenty to go through.  I'm actually getting better at not taking a ton and deleting.  The little man has quite the personality.  He likes to entertain and loves the attention that he gets.  It's so cute.  He also is kind of a little daredevil.  I don't know how he doesn't have more bruises and bumps.  Right now he is running and diving into his ball pit.

  He loves to play with any kind of ball still and that's about the only thing he won't share.  He has a pretty good arm, too.  So you have to keep your guard when he has something in his hands.  He also loves to look at books.  When it's quiet, I usually find him sitting down in the most random spot just looking through a book.

  He is fascinated with balloons "Bah-OOHN"   He also likes to point out the moon "dah-oon"  He's pretty good at pointing stuff out as well (bird, duck, fish, balloon, moon, flowers, dog, cat, football, etc)

  His nighttime routine is drinking warm milk in a cup, while we read a few books.  Then he goes right to sleep.  I get his milk ready and he goes in his room to pick out books.  I find it fascinating at how much he knows and how quickly he learns.  It's kinda cool to watch his thought process sometimes.

  He was the easiest baby to take care of and I think we are getting what was coming to us with the toddler stage.  He isn't horrible, but he certainly likes to test us.  We say, "no," he smirks and keeps on doing it.  I'm trying to get him to stop throwing everything, especially at people.  Plastic blocks to the face---not cool bro.  He is very independent, which I LOVE!  He can entertain himself very well and doesn't need someone standing over him all the time.  He likes his space.  Then of course, ya have to scoop him up and shower him with kisses for being so awesome!

  Caden also likes to dance & play music.  Kim taught him how to turn on the keyboard.  I realized that he likes it so much, so it's in his room now.

With the new baby coming this early winter, we have to do some rearranging in Caden and #2's rooms.  The rocking chair is in his room, but will soon be in the baby's room.  I haven't figured out what I want to put in that little area yet.  I was thinking of getting another chair, but I'm not sure that I want to do that.  I should put the ball pit there.

I also am not finding out the sex of this baby, so I won't have the room decorated this time.  It is painted and the furniture is picked out, but I'm not set on a theme yet.  I have ideas, and wish there was a way I could set it all up without finding out, but ya can't do that.  I don't really want to go the unisex route.


Okey dokey.  More to come soon.  ta-ta for now!
