Letters and Numbers

Caden now says A, B, C, D, F, G (don't know why "E" is skipped) and says 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 14 :) Still working on it...

Happy and Sad

We've been reading a really cute Duck and Goose book called "How Are You Feeling?", and two of the feelings are happy and sad. I think Caden has these feelings down pat.

Just Enough Room

Ever since getting "Rory", "Charlie", and "George" for Christmas, Caden now loves stuffed animals. He asks for all different ones out of his toy box for nap time.

So, when I went to check on him last week...this is what I found:

I also love this pose since I haven't seen him sleep like that since he was an infant!
(Look familiar, Renee? :)

Dishwasher

"OK...I hear water, but I don't see any water."

"Maybe I just need to get closer."

"Nope, just can't figure this thing out!"

Two Spoons...

are better than one.

Caden's Teacher

I signed Caden up for a free program through our school district where a teacher will come to the house twice a week and play/work with him (thanks again Kim for telling me about it). He just loves having the extra attention. She loves that he can say her name:) When he first met his teacher 2 weeks ago, he tiptoed over to her. She asked him if he wanted to sit on her lap. That's all it took for a bond to form. She brought along puzzles, balls, and books to read with him. She was impressed with how quickly he did things and his language development. He even told her the correct colors to things which I think he just figured out not too long ago. Every once in awhile he gets his colors mixed up, but he's doing really well. They also have play groups which I'm looking forward to too!

Help with Watering

After I watered the plants the other day, Caden thought they needed a little more "water". First he figured out that he couldn't reach the shelf, so he ran and got his step stool. Then it took careful planning on his part to get up on the step stool with watering can in hand. If you look closely, he was watering with magnets and Mega Bloks.












"The one on the floor is easier to water...I think I'll stick with this one."
When asked to smile...this is the result :)
